High speed firewall and access control for networks and server farms
As infrastructures are upgraded to Gigabit, existing security solutions to protect internal networks are cost-prohibitive to deploy them widely throughout the network. In many cases security for server farms and departments are lef tto ACLs on routers or VLANs on switches. The result is a slower network with increased complexity due to the many number of policies on edge routers or core switches. The SlimLine FireWall is the first cost-effective Gigabit security appliance that can be deployed in front existing routers and switches to protect individual servers, server farms and local networks.

High speed firewall for network devices
The network is evolving to include networked equipment such as medical equipment, digitizers, IP cameras and IP ATMs. While these devices are coming onto the network, they were not designed with security in mind or run legacy operating systems that are difficult to upgrade. The SlimLine FireWall provides a non-intrusive and cost-effective method to protect these resources and still maintain high network performance.

Denial of Service prevention for hosted servers
Attacks on hosted servers are increasing beyond the capability of networks to effectively defend against them at reasonable costs. The SlimLine AntiDoS is the first cost-effective appliance to give network administrators the ability to deploy DDoS protection directly in front of individual servers, routers, load balancers or firewalls to augment the existing infrastructure.

Traffic flow monitoring for anomaly detection and analysis
Analyzing and detecting network traffic anomalies has become a difficult task due the speed of current network infrastructures and costs associated with deploying Gigabit capable devices to serve this function. The SlimLine FlowManager offers high performance traffic monitoring at a cost-effective price point with the added benefit of alerting when anomalous traffic is detected.

Peer-to-Peer (P2P) traffic monitoring and bandwidth management
Peer-to-peer traffic, such as BitTorrent, has become one of the fastest growing occupiers of network bandwidth and network administrators have little ability to curb that trend with existing products and budgets. The SlimLine FlowManager is designed to identify peer-to-peer traffic and offer the ability to alert or shape peer-to-peer traffic.

High speed encryption
Highly sensitive data running on network LANs and across high speed WANs have the need to be encrypted due to confidentiality and compliance. The SlimLine Encryptor is the first cost-effective solution to provide end to end encryption for devices connected over Gigabit networks.
