WatchGuard boosts up Small Business security lineup with ...

2nd March 2012 | By Mouseworld Now Correspondent |

New Delhi, India, February 29, 2012: WatchGuard Technologies, a leading business security solutions provider has added two new unified threat management (UTM) appliances ? the WatchGuard XTM 25 and XTM 26 to its SMB and branch office offerings.

The WatchGuard XTM 25 and 26 appliances target small businesses, wireless hotspots and branch offices. According to WatchGuard Technologies, the products raise the standard for network security price and performance. HTTPS inspection, VoIP support, and options for Application Control and all other WatchGuard security services (WebBlocker, spamBlocker, Gateway Antivirus, Intrusion Prevention Service, Reputation Enabled Defense, and LiveSecurity Service) serve to enhance protection.

?Small businesses need more from their firewall today than ever before,? said Tim Helming, Director of Product Management at WatchGuard Technologies. ?The new WatchGuard XTM 25 and 26 UTM appliances give small businesses enterprise-class protection and advanced business productivity features that are typically seen in appliances that cost thousands of dollars more.?

Despite the small form factor size, the WatchGuard XTM 25 and XTM 26 can run the latest security features and advanced networking technologies available. Identity-based firewalling plus WatchGuard?s proxy technology provides protection against sophisticated attacks. Whether it is used to create secure virtual private network (VPN) tunnels for Apple iPad, iPhone and other iOS-based devices, or used to enable secure remote connectivity for mobile employees, the VPN set up of the devices is easier.

Both WatchGuard XTM 25 and 26 appliances support next-generation firewall functionality via Application Control. This allows businesses to utilize web 2.0 apps, while keeping employees focused on work rather than playing social media-based games.

WatchGuard XTM 25 and 26 appliances feature the latest intrusion prevention, spam-blocking and gateway anti-virus. The appliances will help prevent malware, spyware, viruses, worms and hackers in the small business networks.
Both WatchGuard XTM 25 and 26 models can use WatchGuard?s Reputation Enabled Defense service, a cloud-based IP and URL reputation solution to stop threats in the cloud before they hit the network edge.

The WatchGuard models include five 1GbE ports for faster link speeds, and the wireless models have dual-band 802.11/n technologies for greater wireless speed and responsiveness.

The WatchGuard appliances allow for real-time monitoring, secure logging and feature more than 65 report templates to give insights to businesses regarding what is going in and out of their network and by whom.

?Many small businesses face the same challenges as large organizations ? how to keep data, applications and their network safe. With WatchGuard, it doesn?t matter if your business has 10 or 10,000 employees ? they all get the same levels of advanced, next-generation threat protection at price points that simply can?t be beat,? adds Helming.

Pricing and Availability
The WatchGuard XTM 25 and XTM 26 will be available in March from authorized WatchGuard channel partners. The XTM 25 and the XTM 26 are listed at a starting price of $440 and $635, respectively. Wireless versions are available, starting at $550.
