Check Point Software Technologies, the worldwide leader in securing the Internet, has announced the launch of its new 1100 Appliances, providing enterprise-class security in a compact desktop package, perfect for branch and remote offices.
The 1100 Appliances offers unparalleled performance with 1,5Gbps of maximum firewall throughput, 220Mbps of maximum virtual private network (VPN) throughput and a 31 SecurityPower unit (SPU) rating.
Cybercrime can occur across an entire network, from headquarters, to the data centre, to remote offices. While the main offices and data centres are often carefully protected, it is at the branch offices where security gaps often exist.
With the proliferation of security threats and sophisticated attacks, hackers will try to exploit a network through any weak links. The 1100 Appliances provide branch and remote offices with the same proven security protections found in enterprise-scale network deployments.
The 1100 Appliances leverage Check Point’s award-winning Software Blade Architecture, which enables organisations to tailor their security platform to meet current and future requirements.
This is the first time that Check Point is bringing the entire breadth of its Software Blade Architecture to appliances at the entry-level price of R5 488.04, which enables customers to deploy any combination of multi-layered protections, including: firewall; VPN; intrusion prevention system (IPS); application control; mobile access; data loss prevention; anti-bot; identity awareness; URL filtering; anti-spam; and antivirus.
“Branch offices can be considered enterprises’ weakest link. Security solutions for remote sites cannot be neglected, regardless of the site’s size or purpose,” says Doros Hadjizenonos, sales manager at Check Point South Africa.
“The 1100 Appliances offer Check Point’s industry-leading security for branch offices and come complete with customisable management, optimal performance and appropriate hardware pricing and design.”
The Check Point 1100 Appliances come pre-loaded with Check Point’s industry-leading security technologies for small offices of one to 100 employees. The appliances offer flexible and intuitive local Web-based management and/or profile-based centralised management through Check Point’s SmartCenter.
Key features of the Check Point 1100 Appliances include:
* Check Point’s powerful SmartCenter security management solutions which ensures scalable deployments, consistent organisation-wide security policies and easy management of hundreds of devices.
* Simple and intuitive management, allowing for quick setup and configuration, even by non-IT professionals.
* Compact desktop form-factor, with 10 1-gigabit Ethernet ports.
* Flexible Internet options to meet the varying needs of individual branch offices.
Check Point 1100 Appliances come in three models (1120, 1140 and 1180). Each appliance model can be equipped with a variety of Internet access options including 3G, ADSL connectivity and Ethernet.
