Ensure continuous, automatic protection

Enforced Client safeguards your computers with:

„Continuous protection — From the time a client computer is turned on until it is turned off, Enforced Client silently monitors all file input and output, downloads, program executions, inbound and outbound communications, and other system-related activities.

„Instant discovery — When Enforced Client detects a virus threat, it attempts to clean the item containing the threat before further damage can occur. If an item cannot be cleaned, a copy of it is placed in a quarantine folder and the original item is deleted.

„Customized threat response — By default, Enforced Client provides a high degree of protection against threats. You can also configure the response to detections of potentially unwanted programs and suspicious activity to suit the needs of your business: take immediate action to clean, quarantine, or block the detection; prompt users for a response; or only log the detection for administrative reports.

„Automatic updates — Enforced Client checks for product updates at regular intervals throughout the day, comparing security components against the latest releases. When a computer needs a newer version, the client software automatically retrieves it.

„Avert Early Warning system and outbreak response — Enforced Client uses the latest information about threats and outbreaks as soon as they are discovered by SonicWALL Avert Labs, a research division of SonicWALL. Whenever Avert Labs releases an outbreak detection definition (DAT) file, your network receives it promptly.

This release brings a suite of advanced features, cutting-edge technologies, and characteristics tailored to enhance system performance and resilience against cyber threats.

One of the highlight features of SonicWALL 4.5 is its Integrated Intrusion Prevention System (IPS). This system provides real-time threat detection and response by monitoring network traffic for potential vulnerabilities and malicious activities. With continuously updated signature-based detection, it ensures that organizations are protected against the latest exploits and attack vectors.

This multi-engine sandboxing technology analyzes suspicious files and URLs in a secure environment, providing organizations with in-depth insights into potential threats before they reach the network.

Furthermore, the solution includes enhancements to Secure Mobile Access, enabling secure remote connections while ensuring that sensitive data remains protected. With features like SSL VPN, SonicWALL 4.5 allows users to securely access private networks from anywhere while maintaining compliance with data protection regulations.

In terms of management, SonicWALL 4.5 introduces an intuitive interface for centralized management, enabling IT administrators to configure and monitor multiple devices effortlessly. The reporting and logging capabilities are enhanced, providing detailed insights into network activity, which is crucial for compliance and forensic analysis.

SonicWALL 4.5 also prioritizes user experience and performance with its optimized hardware, ensuring faster processing speeds and reduced latency. Features like high availability and load balancing further enhance system reliability.

In summary, SonicWALL 4.5 stands out with its integrated IPS, NGFW capabilities, advanced malware protection through Capture ATP, secure mobile access, intuitive management interface, and optimized performance. This comprehensive suite of features positions SonicWALL 4.5 as a formidable player in the realm of network security, making it an appealing choice for organizations seeking robust protection against an ever-evolving threat landscape.
