UTM/Firewall/VPN – Why choose SonicWALL’s products as your business firewall? SonicWALL is one of the few manufacturers that provide Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) protection for their customers. By using SonicWALL devices, we provide extra protection to many companies in the Washington DC area beyond that of a standard firewall. Most firewalls today use Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) to protect your network. They see where the packet is being sent so it will allow the packet to come back through. This however does not protect you from virus and spyware attacks. With SonicWALL’s DPI mixed in with SPI you are fully protected from today’s attacks. These units also combine in the capability to support remote Virtual Private Network’s. This allows you to connect into the office as if you plugged directly into the network.

SSL VPN – These units allow remote access to the most commonly used parts of your network to remote users. They only need access to a computer running an Internet browser. If you are using Microsoft’s Internet Explorer you will gain all the benefits the units have to deliver. You can use these to run Remote Desktops, run Citrix, or to just gain access to the corporate systems.

Email Security- SPAM is not just annoying it is a big waist of time. With SonicWALL’s Email Security appliances you can virtually get rid of all the SPAM that comes into your network. This will not only save you time but can potentially save you from some Internet scams that are going on. If you have any type of email server this is a must have.

Backup and Recovery – Do you use tapes to backup your system? If you do you know how long it takes to recover a file a user may have accidentally overwritten. With SonicWALL’s CDP unit you truly get continuous data protection. You do not set a time when the unit runs because it runs all day long backing up files as they change. The system will keep up to 15 revisions of the file. They can also backup Exchange, SQL Server, and other systems. Need to recover a file? You can have it recovered and done in 5 minutes. You can also get units that can make images of your computers so you can replicate them quickly for large rollouts. If you still live in the world of tapes it is time to see the future of backups.

As a leading Virginia SonicWALL Consulting firm, we can help you purchase and install your business firewall devices.
