Key Security Features
-Classifies all applications, on all ports, all the time.
-Identifies the application, regardless of port, encryption (SSL or SSH), or evasive technique employed.
-Uses the application, not the port, as the basis for all of your safe enablement policy decisions: allow, deny, schedule, inspect and apply traffic-shaping.
-Categorizes unidentified applications for policy control, threat forensics or App-ID development. Enforces security policies for any user, at any location.
-Deploys consistent policies to local and remote users running on the Windows, MacOS, Linux, Android, or Apple iOS platforms.
-Enables agentless integration with Microsoft Active Directory and Terminal Services, LDAP, Novell eDirectory and Citrix.
-Easily integrates your firewall policies with 802.1X wireless, proxies, NAC solutions, and any other source of user identity information. Prevents known and unknown threats.
-Blocks a range of known threats, including exploits, malware and spyware, across all ports, regardless of common threat-evasion tactics employed.
-Limits the unauthorized transfer of files and sensitive data, and safely enables non-work-related web surfing.
-Identifies unknown malware, analyzes it based on hundreds of malicious behaviors, and then automatically creates and delivers protection.
-Threat prevention throughput is measured with App-ID, User-ID, IPS, antivirus, anti-spyware and Disable Server Response Inspection(DSRI) features enabled.
-Throughput is measured with 64Kb HTTP transactions.
-Connections per second are measured with 4Kb HTTP transactions.
