Control Over Remote Site Security
Multiple remote sites may cause a serious headache to the network administrator. Maintaining a
comprehensive overview on network security and availability, keeping every device up to date and
doing all this with ever-diminishing budgets may become an unbearable burden.
The Stonegate UTM solution adds yet another layer of protection to the security system, making
sure even the most remote offices are protected form viruses and intrusions. With the Stonegate
UTM, direct Internet access, free Webmail usage and unpateched remote office systems no longer pose
security threats to organizations.
In a dream world, administering remote sites and their security would require zero
efforts and no on-site IT personnel. Nevertheless, there would be secured connectivity,
unconditional security, low cost of ownership, and long solution life cycle.
"When we looked for true clustering and resilience
for access to off-site national hospital systems,
StoneGate was the only solution we found
that would meet every one of our requirements."
