D-Link DFL-2560 2000Mbit/s hardware firewall

DFL-2560G Network Security UTM Firewall 10 x Gigabit, 2x USB, 1x DB-9 RS-232 Today’s continuously shifting security environment presents a challenge for small/home office
networks with limited IT capabilities. Fortunately, the D-Link NetDefend Unified Threat Management
(UT M) firewalls provide a powerful security solution to protect business networks from a wide
variety of threats. UT M Firewalls offer a comprehensive defense against virus attacks, unauthorized
intrusions, and harmful content, successfully enhancing fundamental capabilities for managing,
monitoring, and maintaining a healthy network.

UTM Services
Maintaining an effective defense against the various threats originating from the Internet requires
that all three databases used by the NetDefend UT M Firewalls are kept up-to-date. In order to
provide a robust defense, D-Link offers optional NetDefend Firewall UT M Service subscriptions
which include updates for each aspect of defense: Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS), Antivirus
and Web Content Filtering (WCF). NetDefend UTM Subscriptions ensure that each of the firewall's
service databases are complete and effective.

Robust Intrusion Prevention
The NetDefend UT M Firewalls employ component-based signatures, a unique IPS technology
which recognizes and protects against all varieties of known and unknown attacks. This
system can address all critical aspects of an attack or potential attack including payload, NO P
sled, infection, and exploits. In terms of signature coverage, the IPS database includes attack
information and data from a global attack sensor-grid and exploits collected from public sites such
as the National Vulnerability Database and Bugtrax. The NetDefend UT M Firewalls constantly
create and optimize NetDefend signatures via the D-Link Auto-Signature Sensor System without
overloading existing security appliances. These signatures ensure a high ratio of detection
accuracy and a low ratio of false positives.

Stream-Based Virus Scanning
The NetDefend UT M Firewalls examine files of any size, using a stream-based virus scanning
technology which eliminates the need to cache incoming files. This zero-cache scanning method
not only increases inspection performance but also reduces network bottlenecks. NetDefend UTM
firewalls use virus signatures from Kaspersky Labs to provide systems with reliable and accurate
antivirus protection, as well as prompt signature updates. Consequentially, viruses and malware
can be effectively blocked before they reach the network's desktops or mobile devices.

Web Content Filtering
Web Content Filtering helps administrators monitor, manage, and control employee usage of and
access to the Internet. The NetDefend UT M Firewalls implement multiple global index servers
with millions of URLs and real-time website data to enhance performance capacity and maximize
service availability. These firewalls use highly granular policies and explicit black/white lists
to control access to certain types of websites for any combination of users, interfaces and IP
networks. The firewall can actively handle Internet content by stripping potential malicious
objects, such as Java Applets, JavaScripts/VBScripts, ActiveX objects, and cookies.

NetDefend UTM Subscription
The standard NetDefend UT M Subscription provides your firewall with UT M service updates
for 12 months* starting from the day you activate or extend your service. The NetDefend UT M
Subscription can be renewed regularly to provide your firewalls with the most up-to-date security
service available from D-Link.

Powerful VPN Engine
Hardware-based data encryption and authentication for IPSec, PPTP, and L2TP in Client/Server mode enable fast and safe handling of VPN traffic.

Professional Intrusion Prevention System (IPS)
Automatic updates from a comprehensive IPS signature database focus on attack payloads to protect the network against zero-day attacks.

Real-Time Antivirus Inspection (AV)
The antivirus engine scans using the most complete, most up-to-date antivirus signature database. Streaming-based pattern matching provides the effective protection against viruses.

Fast, Efficient Web Content Filtering
Multiple index server implementation, highly granular policies, black lists and active content handling enhance performance and effectiveness of web surfing control.

Acceleration Engine for Unified Threat Management
A powerful processor allows the firewall to carry out IPS and Antivirus
