A major component of your network security risk profile probably is application-layer threats. And chances are that your legacy firewall does not deal with them effectively. With legacy firewalls, activating application security—to prevent worms, instant messaging violations, or attacks on application vulnerabilities—means slowing down the network and business-critical applications—a sure way to anger the CIO, who is evaluated on application performance.
VPN-1 Power Multi-core leverages cutting-edge, multi-core microprocessors to accelerate application-layer security. The result? It delivers the security metrics you need and the performance metrics your CIO desires.
Integrating the patent-pending CoreXL "intelligent" load balancing technology, VPN-1 Power Multi-core enables a performance boost for today's dual-core processors and tomorrow’s eight-core processors and beyond. CoreXL security acceleration technology makes this possible by leveling out traffic among processor cores, ensuring multi-core open systems process data efficiently while preventing application-layer attacks. And as security threats change, so can your system. With VPN-1 Power Multi-core running on general-purpose, multi-core processors, it is flexible enough to meet the dynamic threat landscape with predictable performance, unlike hardwired ASIC-based appliance that are only good at combating the static exploits of yesterday and start losing performance the moment they are designed. Overall, VPN-1 Power Multi-core offers a high-performance, high-security solution that: - Integrates Web application firewall and intrusion prevention security at multi-gigabit speeds
- Provides predictable performance as new threats appear
- Increases packets and connections per second for transaction-oriented applications
