Solutions for the Enterprise

Web 2.0 and mobile technologies have profoundly altered the way we all live and work, providing real-time information, interactive collaboration, rich media, and much more. In turn, Web 2.0 has initiated a new paradigm for conducting business: Enterprise 2.0. An Enterprise 2.0 strategy applies emerging Web 2.0 technologies for interactive feedback and collaboration to rapidly develop, evaluate and execute new concepts, enhancing operational efficiency and competitive edge.

The opportunities of Enterprise 2.0—as well as emerging security threats that exploit it—are evolving at a breakneck pace. While at the same time, the increase in Web traffic is taxing the bandwidth requirements for mission-critical applications. To be effective, any security solution for Enterprise 2.0 must protect business resources easily, intelligently, consistently, and universally across platforms and perimeters. Is your network security keeping up?

The innovative SonicWALL® Enterprise Security 2.0 solution delivers a two-fold security approach that helps you unleash the profit potential of Enterprise 2.0 strategies by delivering:

Dynamic, universal protection against emerging threats across platforms and perimeters in real time.

Get dynamic, universal protection against emerging threats across platforms and perimeters in real time, by:

• Verifying and defending the security of traditional, mobile, wireless, virtual machine, and converged technology endpoints and their users, while granularly scanning and disinfecting the entire data stream across platforms and perimeters. Controlling the flow of sensitive or proprietary data across collaborative environments, blocking data leakage in real time with content filtering, and application control.
• Dynamically updating, refining and applying most-current threat signatures in real time via the global SonicWALL GRID Network, to help secure organizations in advance of many of the most malicious cyber attacks

Enabling exponentially higher efficiencies that maximize the economies-of-scale, competitive edge and business agility inherent in Enterprise 2.0 technology.

Enable exponentially higher efficiencies that maximize the economies-of-scale, competitive edge and business agility inherent in Enterprise 2.0 technology, by:

• Offering flexible, unlimitedly scalable security solutions, deployable as software, hardware appliances, virtual appliances and cloud-based services.
• Expanding on an ultra-high-performance baseline proven in our multi-core and virtual machine architecture, and the patented SonicWALL Reassembly-Free Deep Packet Inspection™ (RFDPI) technology.
• Ensuring high-performance throughput and quality of service for latency-sensitive and mission-critical applications with advanced application control, content filtering and bandwidth management, thus cost-effectively optimizing available resources for a higher return on investment (ROI).
• Dramatically easing deployment, administration and management with intelligent automation, responsive monitoring and in-depth reporting functionality, minimizing overhead and total cost of ownership (TCO)

A flexible yet comprehensive solution, SonicWALL Enterprise Security 2.0 unleashes the potential of Enterprise 2.0 for large distributed enterprises, managed service providers (MSPs), and small- to medium-sized businesses (SMBs).

Three key ways you can harness the power of Enterprise 2.0

Make your Enterprise 2.0 more efficient.

SonicWALL enables Enterprise 2.0 to be more efficient with leading-edge bandwidth management and Quality of Service (QoS); multi-core processing platforms; resource consolidation; performance-optimized architecture; virtual applications and cloud-based services; and streamlined management and reporting.

Make your Enterprise 2.0 more productive.

SonicWALL enables Enterprise 2.0 to be more productive by securing remote, wireless, mobile and VoIP traffic to promote collaboration, while blocking malware, data leakage and access to non-productive inappropriate websites. In addition, IT can become more productive using Virtual Assist and the award-winning Global Management System.

Make your Enterprise 2.0 more agile.

SonicWALL gets business running “anywhere, anytime”, with secure access across platforms and perimeters. Engineered for flexibility, SonicWALL offers scalable, extendable, self-discoverable, self-powering, self-updating, and self-monitoring solutions that ramp up in no time. Along with its technical scalability, SonicWALL’s policy and administration scales easily as organizations grow.

Enterprise 2.0 increases risks.

Yet Enterprise 2.0 comes with inherent risks. Wider business use of Enterprise 2.0 strategy makes it a lucrative target for malicious data thieves, hackers and extortionists. More sophisticated, dangerous and faster-replicating threats are overwhelming the effectiveness of traditional security perimeters. At the same time, the exponential increase in Web traffic, combined with shrinking IT budgets and resources, make it more critical than ever to cost-effectively control applications, content and bandwidth, in order to optimize resources and Quality of Service (QoS).

Get the full benefits of Enterprise 2.0 with SonicWALL.

SonicWALL Enterprise Security 2.0 enables organizations of any size to customize an integrated Enterprise 2.0 Security solution by drawing upon the strengths of the entire SonicWALL product line, including SonicWALL Network Security, Secure Remote Access, Email Security and Global Management and Reporting.

Network Security.

SonicWALL Network Security provides anywhere, anytime Enterprise 2.0 security by effectively scanning and disinfecting inbound and outbound traffic in real time over local, wide-area, mobile, wireless, converged, and virtualized networks, across Enterprise 2.0 platforms and perimeters. SonicWALL Network Security protects against emerging threats using aggressive Next-Generation Firewall countermeasures and patented high-speed SonicWALL Reassembly-Free Deep Packet Inspection™. SonicWALL Network Security solutions reduce risk, cost and complexity by integrating automated dynamic security capabilities to deliver comprehensive protection and maximum performance.

Secure Remote Access.

SonicWALL Secure Remote Access delivers Enterprise 2.0 access to mission-critical resources from virtually any endpoint—including desktops, laptops, PDAs and smartphones—while enforcing highly granular access control based on both user authentication and endpoint interrogation. SonicWALL Virtual Assist provides optional remote help desk support to non-IT-managed laptops and PC.

Email Security.

SonicWALL Email Security constantly leverages the global SonicWALL GRID Network to protect Enterprise 2.0 environments from malware, botnets and data leakage in real time, and is flexibly deployable as software or a hardened appliance.

SonicWALL Application Intelligence.

SonicWALL Application Intelligence extends the protection of SonicWALL Next-Generation Firewalls beyond blocking traditional network threats to the management and control of data and applications that pass through the network security appliance. This extended capability provides application-level bandwidth management access controls, data leakage control over the transfer of specific files and documents, and much more.

Global Management System.

SonicWALL Global Management System eases Enterprise 2.0 administration by providing a flexible, powerful and intuitive tool to centrally manage and rapidly deploy SonicWALL appliances and security policy configurations, and is flexibly deployable as software or a hardened appliance. Also deployable as software or virtual appliance, SonicWALL ViewPoint Reporting streamlines Enterprise 2.0 security initiatives and aids compliance with regulatory mandates.
