Utilizing networks to access internal and external mission-critical applications are common, and important as well, for small and medium-sized businesses. As faster networks bring more convenience and efficiency, businesses are facing challenges from sophisticated attacks and even cybercrime that would cause interrupted communications, degraded performance and loss of valuable information; however traditional firewalls are not capable of protecting business from such network attacks.

The ZyWALL USG 300/1000/2000 Series are security platforms that offers ultra-high performance, deep packet inspection and all-in-one multi-threat protection not only to block the latest attack combinations including intrusion attempts, viruses, worms, phishing, spyware, spam and many other malware types effectively, but also to secure remote access among branch offices, partners and customers. The ZyWALL USG’s real-time threat detection and continuous update services provide the fastest response speed in the networking industry to deter the evolving security threats before the business is affected. The ZyWALL USG 300/1000/2000 Series is ideal for small- and medium-size businesses to safeguard their network environments.

Real-time, dynamic malware protection to safeguard business networks

Web security powered by BlueCoat and Commtouch
With more valuable information being placed on the data cloud, impacts from the ever-growing cybercrime should be treated seriously. As modern malware become very sophisticated and difficult to repel, the ZyWALL USG’s content filter from Blue Coat and Commtouch, the leading solution provider, reduces costs and extends protection by integrating a comprehensive, continuously updated database featuring millions of URLs, IP addresses and domains. With the content filter, the USG Series not only enables real-time protection to deter emerging Web threats including malware, phishing and Zombies/bots, but also monitors or blocks certain sites to maintain employee productivity.

Powerful Email security

The ZyWALL USG Series delivers industry-leading protection, powered by Commtouch, against spam, phishing and virus-laden emails. The extremely high performance of Commtouch technology comes from the unique recurrent pattern detection (RPD) mechanism that possesses its superior capability through analyzing millions of new patterns each day (24x7x365) to block all the associated messages real-time. In addition, the ZyWALL USG applies sender-based IP reputation to remove over 80% of unwanted mails and to take advantage of the zero-hour virus outbreak protection feature, which is capable of blocking or delaying suspicious messages hours before commercial anti-virus signatures are available.

High Availability (HA) ensures non-stop business operations
