PaloAlto Consolidate Security Devices

Consolidate Multiple Security Devices

Threats to a network continues to grow at a faster pace than security technologies required to protect the network, resulting in a dramatic growth in the number of security point-products deployed in organisation environments. With so many devices being used, IT departments are obligated to spend too much of their valuable time managing multiple devices with disparate management interfaces. In a perfect world, the IT department would be able to decrease their administrative efforts and enhance their network security with a solution that:

• Finds and blocks a wide range of malware without compromising performance degradation
• Unifies management of multiple security functions with a consistent interface

Unifies management of multiple security functions with a consistent interface

Palo Alto Networks provide a high performance firewall using a combination of purpose-built hardware and a security-specific operating system to optimize network protection and performance. The PA-4000 Series platform utilizes function-specific processing and dedicated memory for networking, security, threat prevention and management to make sure that the horsepower to drive security services is always on-hand. A 10 Gbps backplane means that potential traffic flow bottlenecks are eliminated while the separation of control and data plane makes sure that management access is always available, even under load.

Unified Policy Controls

The Palo Alto Networks PA-4000 Series firewall solution has been designed from the ground up to perform multiple security function (firewall, threat prevention, URL filtering, etc) all at multi-Gbps throughput levels. The process of organizing traffic, detecting and preventing viruses, spyware, vulnerability exploits and URL filtering are conducted by a variety of dedicated processors, to make sure appropriate amounts of horsepower are accessible when required. Rather than using cobbled together, hard-to-use management interfaces to set policies for disparate technologies, Palo Alto Networks utilizes a single policy to accumulate all security rules including the matching criteria for the access control, threat prevention, URL filtering, logging, QoS and more.
