Netgear, a global networking company, has introduced the NETGEAR ProSecure UTM9S, a unified threat management (UTM) gateway with both VDSL and WiFi capability.
ProSecure UTM9S integrates with NETGEAR ReadyNAS network-attached storage systems, and delivers comprehensive Internet security without traditional vendor complexity and cost.
The UTM firewall provides high-speed Internet access through an on-board VDSL modem, and offers a wireless-N access point module, said the company.
Netgear said the UTM firewall will enable small businesses and branch offices to access modern high-speed Internet connections, provide a wireless network and protect against Internet threats, all from a single device.
ProSecure UTM9S can be set to automatically send activity logs and complete quarantined threats to Netgear ReadyNAS storage systems.
The UTM firewall uses patented Stream Scanning Technology, which analyses data streams as they enter the network against a full malware signature library – offering maximum protection with minimum latency, said the company.
Netgear senior product marketing manager Jason Leung said the ProSecure UTM9S brings their commitment to ‘smart IT, not big IT’ to the next level.
"NETGEAR uniquely leverages ReadyNAS storage systems to provide simple, seamless archival for quarantined email threats and log information. This cross-product technology integration is an example of NETGEAR delivering smart IT solutions – not just products – to our customers," Leung said.
