Firewall

A "stateful inspection" firewall delivers the highest level of security possible by providing full application-layer awareness without breaking client / server structure. Stateful Inspection extracts the state-related information required for security decisions from all application layers and maintains this information in dynamic state tables for evaluating subsequent connection attempts. This provides a solution that is highly secure and offers maximum performance and scalability.

Anti-Spam

Acquired-intelligence learning techniques, with the benefits of the world-renowned "Spam Assassin" product. Constant updating procedures are your best protection against ever-changing net threats.

Content Filtering

This feature enables an organisation to control potential misuse of Web resources. Inappropriate use of the internet by employees exposes an organisation to greater threats of viruses and Trojans originating from suspect websites. Controlling non-business related web access, improves employee productivity and bandwidth utilization, and minimises the risk of legal liabilities associated with users visiting inappropriate Web sites. Comprehensive blocking lists supplied, and custom lists for your particular environment can be created to order.

Web Cache

Using world-leading web cache software, (developed by our US based partners), you can optimise your available bandwidth, improve your internet access speed and possibly extend the cycle of your current bandwidth upgrades.

Web Acceleration

Again, developed by our US technology partners, this function is used by web host sites and gives significantly improved performance in Web page delivery.

Virtual Private Network (VPN)

Utilising the OpenVPN product suite, we provide dual layer authentication utilising certificate based access for additional security. This allows secure access to your network from remote sites.

Monitoring

All the above security features can be remotely monitored. In addition, provision has been made for Managed Service providors (or IT Managers) to also monitor the following system functions for managed services functions.

  • Check CPU load on single or multiprocessors system
  • Check CPU operating temperature
  • Check disk space
  • Check memory use
  • Check uptime duration of the machine
  • Check services states
  • Check processes
  • Check file age
  • Every available performance counter available from Windows services.
  • Can return a list of instances for a given performance object
