Sonicwall revolutionizes UTM category

Bengaluru: Sonicwall announced the expansion of its TZ series product line with the launch of the TZ 200, TZ 200 wireless-N, TZ 100, and TZ 100 wireless-N. The updated TZ series, which also includes the recently announced TZ 210, provides small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) and distributed enterprises with innovations in enterprise-class anti-spam, 3G failover, SSL-VPN remote access, and a host of additional crucial features required to help companies control security threats and increase productivity.

“We have always been mindful of balancing our clients' security needs with their IT budgets and experience,” said Ron Culler, CTO-Secure Designs, a Sonicwall MSP partner. “Sonicwall's SMB products have always served us and our clients well so we are glad to see the new TZ 200/100 series appliances. With significant network bandwidth performance increases, enhanced OS, and SSL VPN remote access these devices enhance our already robust services offerings. With the TZ 200 our clients are able to take advantage of the higher speed services now entering the SMB market,” he added.

Sonicwall has combined all of the these features with its gateway anti-virus, anti-spyware, intrusion prevention, enforced client anti-virus and content filtering capability, while increasing the UTM throughput speeds by 2.5-3.5 times over previous generation Sonicwall products.

“The combination of increasing malware sophistication and the prevalence of social media usage puts your network's security, productivity and cost structure under pressure. Yet, SMBs and distributed enterprises can't solve the problem with a dozen different solutions. Sonicwall's unified threat management firewalls, combined with the innovative new features, bring a total solution together in one integrated series of firewalls that have the speed, sophistication, and intelligence to solve the security and the productivity threats to the network while still reducing costs,” said Patrick Sweeney, VP-Product Management, Sonicwall.
