Sharp will release three new UTM (Unified Threat Management) models that comprehensively manage office network security functions. The quarantine performance of Internet communications has been improved to approximately 1.7 times (*1) that of our conventional models, realizing smoother and highly secure data communication.
These devices are equipped with seven types of security measures: "Firewall", "IPS (Intrusion Prevention System)", "Anti-Virus", "Anti-Spam", "URL Filtering", "Application Control", and "Anti-Bot". A single unit can handle various threats on the network (*2). The base engine uses a product from Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. (*3), a leading company in the cybersecurity field.
Additionally, the quarantine performance of Internet communication has improved by approximately 1.7 times compared to our conventional models. Even in situations where many employees are browsing websites simultaneously, threats are quickly scanned, preventing network congestion within the company. Furthermore, the wireless model supports Wi-Fi(®)7 (*4). With improved maximum communication speeds and connection stability, it ensures smooth and highly secure data communication.
The security system automatically updates to the latest version. It handles cyberattacks such as viruses and phishing scams, which are becoming more sophisticated every day. In addition, we provide a service that sends monthly email reports on information regarding detected and prevented threats, as well as the usage status of high-risk applications. By making it easier to grasp the network status and potential risks, even small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and SOHOs without dedicated IT administrators can easily strengthen their security.
