Technology
Any time, anywhere access needs
Your network is more complex than ever before. Your employees are accessing any application they want, using work or personal devices. Oftentimes, these applications span both personal and work- related usage, but the business and security risks are often ignored. Prospective employees are asking about application usage policies before accepting a job.
Cybersecurity challenges
Adding another layer of complexity is the underlying concern about the effectiveness of your cybersecurity posture. Is your business a target for a cyberattack? Is it a question of when, as opposed to if? And are you as prepared as you could be? The complexity of your network and your security infrastructure may limit or slow your ability to respond to these and other cybersecurity challenges.
Our technologies
The underlying technologies within our next-generation firewall form the basis of an enterprise security platform that natively classifies all traffic, on all ports, inclusive of applications, threats and content. The traffic is then tied to the user, regardless of location or device type allowing you to use the application, content, and user – the core elements that run your business – as the basis of your safe application enablement policies.
App-ID
Classifies all of your applications, across all ports, all the time, regardless of port, encryption (SSL or SSH) or technique used to evade detection.
User-ID
Integrates with a wide range of user identity repositories so that your policies follow your users and groups regardless of their location.
Content-ID
Prevents a wide range of threats, controls web surfing, and limits unauthorized data and file transfers on your network.
