Stonesoft Announces Modular Appliances for Increased Flexibility and Performance
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
StoneGate 5.2 delivers highest level of agility to today's growing networks
Helsinki, Finland - 31 August, 2010 - Stonesoft, an innovative provider of
integrated network security and business continuity solutions, today announced a
selection of new modular appliances to the StoneGate product suite that enable
clients to add or modify network interfaces to meet network connectivity needs.
Rather than replace security appliances as network traffic grows, organizations
can simply add connectivity through the new modular hardware components for
StoneGate Firewall/VPN 5.2 and StoneGate IPS 5.2.
This is the latest development in Stonesoft's mission to increase the agility of
today's networks. Many of today's corporate and public sector organizations are
struggling to meet the increased network security demands of today's
fast-changing, post-recession climate. As a result, there is an acute need for
flexible, cost-effective network technologies that support the changing pace of
business.
Stonesoft's new modular appliances include the StoneGate FW-1301, FW-3201 and
FW-3205 firewall/VPN appliances and the IPS-3201, IPS-3205, SSL-3201 intrusion
prevention system appliances. These devices allow organizations to easily add or
modify network interfaces that connect the firewall or IPS to surrounding
network infrastructure. Within minutes, a mid-sized enterprise can protect and
inspect more network segments by simply adding network interface modules to
their device(s).
In addition to flexibility, StoneGate 5.2 will deliver substantial cost savings
to customers by extending the appliance life cycle. Instead of buying a new
device and/or management center as network traffic and security demands
increase, organizations can simply add the appropriate hardware components.
Additionally, they can reuse certain modules in other StoneGate appliances, thus
further extending the return on investment and flexibility of the StoneGate
network security solution.
"Today's businesses must be more agile than ever before. Our new modular
appliances ensure that organizations have access to network security that grows
and contracts with their network demands", said Antti Kuvaja, Director, Product
Management at Stonesoft Corporation.
