Description:
McAfee UTM Firewall is a complete office network-in-a-box Internet security appliance for small and medium-size businesses (SMBs). It features wide-area networking tools that you would normally only see with enterprise-class devices. Because the last thing SMBs need is another single-purpose security appliance to add to their network.
Use your UTM Firewall as your all-in-one solution to easily set up your business office with:
- A local network of office PCs (wired or wireless, including DHCP and all LAN-routing functions)
- Secure connectivity to the Internet with web-based content filtering
- Seamless LAN to WAN connectivity with secure remote VPN access for your branch offices and mobile staff
- A complete perimeter security solution, with options such as firewall, VPN, IDS/IPS, anti-spam, and content filtering
UTM Firewall handles it all for you, easily and affordably. It works by converging all networking, firewall, intrusion prevention security, and remote access requirements into one high-speed, highly reliable, small-form-factor appliance.
Just pick the UTM Firewall model that fits your business requirements and power it on. We have models ranging from our entry-level SOHO appliance, to our rack mount unit intended for larger offices. No additional routers, switches, DHCP servers, wireless devices, or failover devices are needed.
All UTM Firewalls can be centrally managed via the McAfee UTM Firewall Control Center. Centralized management is critical to larger distributed environments-it allows network administrators to manage hundreds or even thousands of UTM Firewall appliances with a click of the mouse, including upgrades, policy changes, and other configuration tasks.
