Network Security & Firewall Devices

No matter where they are used, even in small office environments or large enterprise systems, these appliances provide flexible support for multiple network architectures. They are designed to support high-speed data processing, provide fine-grained access control, accommodate VPN integration, and facilitate deep-packet inspection to detect advanced threats.

Key Features of Network Security & Firewall Devices:

• Stateful & Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) 
• Built-in Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) 
• Real-time traffic monitoring and advanced analytics dashboards
• VPN support for secure remote access and encrypted communications

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. What is the difference between a firewall device and antivirus software?

A firewall device controls network-level traffic to block unauthorized access, whereas antivirus software defends individual computers from viruses and malware. They work best when used together for layered security.

2. Can a firewall device protect against ransomware?

Yes, most modern firewall devices include higher-level threat features like sandboxing, IPS, and heuristic detection that can prevent and block ransomware attacks even before they impact internal systems.

3. Are hardware firewalls better than software firewalls?

Hardware firewalls provide more robust, centralized security for whole networks and are better suited to enterprise environments. Software firewalls are best suited to individual devices and smaller networks with fewer security needs.
