SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus/Intrusion Prevention Features
The Gateway Anti-Virus/Intrusion Prevention features are described below:
•Integrated Deep Packet Inspection Technology - SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus/Intrusion Prevention Service features a configurable, high-performance deep packet inspection architecture that uses parallel searching algorithms up through the application layer to deliver increased application layer, Web and e-mail attack prevention. Parallel processing reduces the performance impact on the firewall and maximizes available memory for exceptional throughput on SonicWALL integrated security gateways.
•Real-TimeAnti-Virus Gateway Scanning - SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus/Intrusion Prevention Service delivers intelligent file-based virus and malicious code prevention by scanning in real-time for decompressed and compressed files containing viruses, Trojans, worms and other Internet threats over the corporate network.
•Powerful Intrusion Prevention - SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus/Intrusion Prevention Service provides complete protection from a comprehensive array of network-based application layer threats by scanning packet payloads for worms, Trojans, software vulnerabilities such as buffer overflows, peer-to-peer and instant messenger applications, backdoor exploits, and other malicious code.
•Ultimate Scalability and Performance - SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus/Intrusion Prevention Service utilizes a per packet scanning engine, making SonicWALL’s solution unique in its ability to handle unlimited file size and virtually unlimited concurrent downloads, offering ultimate scalability and performance for today’s networked environment.
•Day Zero Protection - SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus/Intrusion Prevention Service ensures incredibly fast time-to-protection by employing a dynamically-updated database of signatures created by a combination of SonicWALL’s SonicAlert Team, third-party virus analysts and developers, and open source databases of known threats.
•Extensive Virus Signature List - SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus/Intrusion Prevention Service utilizes an extensive database of thousands of attack and vulnerability signatures written to detect and prevent intrusions, viruses, worms, Tojans, application exploits, and malicious applications.
•Distributed Enforcement Architecture - SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus/Intrusion Prevention Service utilizes a distributed enforcement architecture to deliver automated signature updates, providing real-time protection from emerging threats and lowering total cost of ownership.
•Inter-zone Protection - SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus/Intrusion Prevention Service provides application layer attack protection against malicious code and other threats originating from the Internet or from internal sources. Administrators have the ability to enforce intrusion prevention and anti-virus scanning not only between each network zone and the Internet, but also between internal network zones for added security (Requires SonicOS Enhanced).
•Advanced File Decompression Technology - SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus/Intrusion Prevention Service includes advanced decompression technology that can automatically decompress and scan files on a per packet basis to search for viruses, Trojans, worms and malware. Supported compression formats include: ZIP, Deflate and GZIP.
•File-Based Scanning Protocol Support - SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus/Intrusion Prevention Service delivers protection for high threat viruses and malware by inspecting the most common protocols used in today’s networked environments, including SMTP, POP3, IMAP, HTTP, FTP, NETBIOS, instant messaging and peer-to-peer applications, and dozens
