Your branch offices represent the backdoor to your network. You need a level of security consistent with the rest of your network, but are faced with products that offer completely different levels of security. You need to enforce an enterprise-wide security policy, but are faced with managing branch offices separately from your central campuses. You need to provision security services quickly, but are faced with a shortage of IT personnel to go onsite for deployment. In short, you are faced with sacrificing security to simplify your branch office security.
VPN-1 UTM Edge solves the branch office paradox by delivering total security within a simple solution that can be deployed by non-technical personnel in less than 5 minutes. With integrated firewall, VPN, intrusion prevention, and antivirus technologies based on Check Point’s enterprise-class solutions, it ensures a consistent level of security across the entire network. As part of Check Point’s Unified Security Architecture, VPN-1 UTM Edge can enforce a global security policy as defined in SmartCenter or Provider-1. VPN-1 UTM Edge ensures that the branch office is no longer the back door to your network.
