Secure Firewall is the
Future-Proof Firewall that goes beyond UTM
Secure
Firewall (Sidewinder) appliances are market-leading, next-generation
firewalls
that provide application visibility and control even beyond Unified
Threat Management (UTM) for multi-layer security - and the highest
nework performance. Global visibility of dynamic threats is the centrepiece
of Secure Firewall and one of the key reasons for it's superior ability
to detect unknown threats along with the known. Secure Firewalls deliver
the best-of-breed in security systems to block attacks including viruses,
worms, Trojans, intrusion attempts, spam and phishing tactics, cross-site
scripting, SQL injections, denial of service (DoS) and attacks hiding
in encrypted protocols. Secure Firewall kills the evasive blended
attacks that other security products can't see.

Eliminates Botnets, Zombies
and Blended Attacks with TrustedSource
Secure
Computing has set a new standard for proactive detection with the
industry's
first and leading reputation system - TrustedSource™ technology.
This new paradigm of protection dissects traffic not against signatures
but on the host/devices' behaviour history (reputation). Consequently,
elusive botnets, zombies and blended threats are stopped in their
tracks at the perimeter.
The TrustedSource global
grid gives us security ESP - we see things other don't - and that's
one reason why it stops well over 70% of the traffic (i.e. the unwanted
traffic) flooding into today's network at the edge, reducing your
network volume on down-stream servers and reducing your network's
exposure to attack.
TrustedSource rejects
connections from known bad senders, infected Web pages and hosts
turned into malware-distributing zombies. Like credit scores in banking,
TrustedSource has a real-time reputation scoring system and with
its extensive visibility of Internet devices and the constantly
changing threat landscape, questionable hosts are identified and
organisations
are empowered to block these threats. The Secure Firewall knows
everyone's number!
Firewall Must-Haves in
the Web 2.0 world:
- Stop cross-site scripting,
SQL injection attacks and directory traversals
- Inspect encrypted
protocols
- Stop botnets and zombies
- Who's trying to connect
to your network? Filter traffic based on country codes
Secure Firewall does
all this and more.

Businesses
should connect with traffic that makes sense for its daily operations.
Yet many companies use bandwidth and system resources to handle traffic
from countries and entire continents they don't do business with
and expose themselves to more security risks. Secure Firewall Geo-location
stops this waste by providing the choice to filter traffic based
on country code.
- TrustedSource and
Secure Firewall Geo-location provide security ESP to let you dramatically
reduce exposure to attack, as well as save bandwidth, processing
time and infrastructure expenses.
Apply Precious Security
Funding where the biggest threats are - Applications
Applications themselves
are the new playground for hackers. Current estimates say 70% to 80%
of new attacks are
focused on vulnerabilities in applications and commodity stateful/deep
inspection firewalls fall short protecting here. Visibility to applications
alone doesn't equal protection. As a true application firewall, Secure
Firewall surpasses visibility to control applications, including
how they are used and who they can be used by for the most popular
applications like email, HTTP/S (Web), multi-media (H323), Oracle,
Citrix, SQL, VoIP (SIP), SSH, FTP and other high-use services. Controlling
applications over your network further reduces your exposure to atttack.
Eliminate the Blind Spot
of Encrypted Applications
Encrypted protocols are the other new playground for hackers today because
they know most firewalls pass this traffic straight through without any
inspection. Not so with Secure Firewall, which decrypts and filters traffic
in SSH, SFTP, SCP and SSL/HTTPS, so this traffic won't become surprise
attacks waiting to happen when they reach your internal servers.
Secure Firewall Streamlines
Management and Regulatory Compliance
The best security is also easy to manage. Besides having an easy
user interface where any rule can be created in just one screen,
Secure Firewall provides multiple tools for easy management
- Secure Firewall
Reporter is
an award-winning security event management (SEM) tool included
at no additional cost with Secure Firewall that delivers central
monitoring, correlated alerting and reporting to turn Secure Firewall
audit streams into actionable information to keep the enterprise
safer. Over 800 graphical reports show network traffic in many
angles and include complete information for all major regulatory
requirements including Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX),
PCI, GLBA, HIPAA, and FISMA, taking the pain out of regulatory compliance
- Central firewall management
is available through Secure Firewall CommandCenter
- New-feature patch
updates are delivered to you automatically via the Internet. Secure
Firewall authenticates, self-checks and even self-installs upgrades
for your system with just a single 'click' per your schedule
- Monitor and manage
employee and contractor use of the network to catch spyware or
other harmful content, whether it's inadvertently downloaded or
done so maliciously.
On top of all this, Secure
Firewall customers have never been interrupted by emergency security
patches, an all too common phenomena in the security industry. With
Secure Firewall in place, take the staff time normally devoted to
emergency patches for other firewalls and put it on better projects,
like creating competitive IT/networking advantages for your business.
