Cyberoam, a division of Elitecore Technologies, has launched two new UTM appliances targeted at mid-market customers. The CR500ia and CR750ia UTM appliances feature enhanced multi-core aware architecture that ensures parallel processing of multiple network sessions, according to Cyberoam. This enables the appliance to maintain a predictable degree of performance while dealing with unknown future threats, thereby providing higher levels of security.
Abhilash Sonwane, Vice President, Product Management, Cyberoam, said, “As enterprises increasingly adopt newer technologies such as cloud computing, virtualization, Web 2.0, mobility and social media, they are bracing up for the latest application-layer threats and sophisticated malware attacks. Consequently, their throughput and security feature requirements often fall short of expectations. Cyberoam’s next-generation UTM appliances have been designed for these enterprises so that they may adopt latest IT technologies without compromising on either performance or security.”
Enterprise-class security features of CR500ia and CR750ia UTM appliances include an Extensible Security Architecture (ESA), Application Layer 7 Management, 3G/WiMAX support, security for HTTPS/SSL traffic, instant messaging archiving and control and IPv6 Ready Gold Logo certification.
The appliances also feature Layer 8 technology that treats the user as the 8th layer in the network stack, penetrating through all Cyberoam security modules to ensure higher visibility and control over user activity in the network. |
