"The ever-changing landscape of security threats and network productivity issues, weaken the control point for administrators. Customers want a continually evolving Unified Threat Management solution that offers secure real-time internal and external network protection without compromising network performance,"
commented Bird.
"With this in mind, we designed the NSA series from the ground up with multi-core acceleration hardware and multi-function security capabilities delivering unprecedented performance and inspection capabilities making communication networks extremely efficient and predictable."
The NSA Series multi-core platform, which first appeared in the E-Class Appliances launched in 2007, is now available for mid-size organizations to help manage their security in an increasingly complex network environment. These appliances allow IT administrators to better control, secure and authorize network access, thereby reducing security lapses and dramatically improving visibility of network activity and application use.
The rise of Web 2.0 applications, the growth of inbound and outbound network activity and the increased utilization of network resources have lead to growing challenges in terms of securing networks and gaining greater insight into data.
"For our regional customers, the NSA series provides technology departments and officers full control across the corporate network. With unprecedented inspection performance, the NSA Series provides administrators much deeper intelligence over their network infrastructure and delivers a tremendous increase in network efficiency and productivity," said Shahnawaz Sheikh, SonicWALL's regional sales manager for the Middle East and Africa (MEA). "Using massively paralleled processes to classify then inspect networked applications, the NSA series identifies unknown connections and gives administrators back complete control of networked communications."
The NSA Series also breaks through performance barriers using a combination of SonicWALL's patented Reassembly Free DPI (RFDPI) and purpose-built multi-core acceleration hardware, which also appears in the E-Class Appliances. This technology is now available in products specifically designed to help mid-size organizations manage their security in an increasingly complex and high speed network environment.
