Network Security & Firewalls

The SonicWall TZ Series of next-generation firewalls (NGFW) is ideally suited for any organization that requires enterprise-grade network protection.

SonicWALL TZ Series firewalls provide broad protection from compromise by combining advanced security services consisting of on-box and cloud- based anti-malware, anti-spyware, intrusion prevention system (IPS), and content/URL filtering. To counter the trend of encrypted attacks, the new SonicWALL TZ Series has the ability and processing power to inspect SSL connections against the latest threats, providing an even higher level of security. Backed by the SonicWall Global Response Intelligent Defense (GRID) network, the SonicWALL TZ Series delivers continuous updates to maintain a strong network defense from cybercriminals. With full deep packet inspection operating at performance levels that match broadband connection speeds, the SonicWALL TZ Series is able to scan every byte of every packet on all ports and protocols with almost zero latency. This eliminates bottlenecks and allows organizations to use security as an enabler, not an inhibitor.

The SonicWALL TZ Series also features an integrated wireless access controller, 1-Gigabit Ethernet ports, and native VPN remote access clients for Apple IOS, Google Android, Windows, Mac OS and Linux for fast, secure mobileaccess. The SonicWall Global Management System (GMS) enables deployment and management of SonicWALL TZ Series firewalls from a single system at the central office.

The products include fully tested routing features for IPv4 and IPv6, including route-based VPN protocols OSPF and RIP v1/v2. Authentication protocols support includes LDAP and RADIUS as well as single sign-on capability that can integrate with Active Directory. All SonicWall firewalls provide advanced threat protection from botnets, and UDP and ICMP flooding.

Protection for SMB

The SonicWALL TZ Series offers small and medium business (SMB) a broad range of security protection in an integrated solution, with a wide selection of products to match speed and budget requirements. Intuitive wizards simplify deployment and setup. And should broadband service be interrupted, connections can be retained with integrated 3G/4G support. In addition, many of the SonicWALL TZ Series products feature integrated wireless controller support for high-speed 802.11ac SonicPoint wireless access points.

Managed security for distributed environments

Schools, retail shops, remote sites, branch offices and distributed enterprises need a solution that integrates with their corporate firewall. SonicWALL TZ Series firewalls share the same code base-and same protection-as our flagship SuperMassive next generation firewalls. This simplifies remote site management, as every administrator sees the same user interface (UI). In addition, GMS enables remote SonicWall firewalls to be monitored, configured and managed through a single pane of glass. By adding high-speed, secure wireless, the SonicWALL TZ Series also extends the protection perimeter to include customers and guests frequenting the retail site or remote office.

Industry-validated security effectiveness and performance for

The SonicWall Network Security Appliance (NSA) series provides mid-sized networks, branch offices and distributed enterprises with advanced threat prevention in a high-performance security platform. Combining next-generation firewall technology with our patented Reassembly-Free Deep Packet Inspection (RFDPI) engine on a multi-core architecture, the NSA series offers the security, performance and control organizations require.

Superior threat prevention and performance

NSA series next-generation firewalls (NGFWs) integrate a series of advanced security technologies to deliver a superior level of threat prevention. Our patented single-pass RFDPI threat prevention engine examines every byte of every packet, inspecting both inbound and outbound traffic simultaneously. The NSA series leverages on-box capabilities including intrusion prevention, anti-malware and web/URL filtering in addition to cloud- based services such as CloudAV and SonicWall Capture multi-engine sandboxing to block zero-day threats at the gateway. Unlike other security products that cannot inspect large files for hidden threats, NSA firewalls scan files of any size across all ports and protocols. The security architecture in SonicWall NGFWs has been validated as one of the industry's best for security effectiveness by NSS Labs which awarded SonicWall its "Recommended" rating for the fourth consecutive year.

Going beyond intrusion prevention, anti-malware and web filtering, SonicWall NGFWs provide a further level of protection by decrypting and inspecting SSL/TLS encrypted web traffic for hidden threats in real time. With the continued growth of encrypted web traffic, organizations are effectively blind to an estimated one-third of their network traffic. This makes SSL/TLS decryption and inspection a critical component of any security solution.

When organizations activate deep packet inspection functions such as intrusion prevention, anti-virus, anti- spyware, SSL decryption/inspection and others on their firewalls network performance often slows down, sometimes dramatically. NSA series firewalls feature a multi-core hardware architecture that utilizes specialized security microprocessors. Combined with our RFDPI engine, this unique design eliminates the performance degradation networks experience with other firewalls.

Today's organizations face unprecedented security challenges. The sophistication and volume of attacks is increasing exponentially, often resulting in lost company, personal and customer data; stolen intellectual property; damaged reputations; and lost productivity. At the same time, security has become more complex. Organizations are grappling with the BYOD revolution and the explosion of personal devices connecting to the network. Personal smartphones and tablets slow network performance and productivity, and mobile applications such as social media and video streaming consume an enormous amount of bandwidth. In order to address these network security and productivity challenges, some organizations have chosen to compromise their security by turning off features to maintain network performance.

Now your organization can be both secure and productive without compromising network performance. The SonicWall™ Network Security Appliance (NSA) Series next-generation firewalls (NGFWs) deliver network security that does not compromise performance. It delivers world-class security and performance without compromise, using the same architecture as the flagship SuperMassive next-generation firewall line. At the same time, the NSA Series offers SonicWall's acclaimed ease of use and high value.

At the same time, the NSA series offers SonicWall's acclaimed ease of use and high value. Based on years of research and development, the NSA Series is designed from the ground up for distributed enterprises, small- to medium-sized businesses, branch offices, school campuses and government agencies. It combines a revolutionary multi-core architecture with a patented, Reassembly-Free Deep Packet Inspection® (RFDPI) single-pass threat-prevention engine in a massively scalable design. This gives organizations industry-leading protection, performance and scalability with a high number of concurrent connections, low latency and high connections-per-second with no file size limitations. Highly respected independent third-party testing firms have evaluated and/or certified the technology of the NSA Series firewalls.

Unlike competing legacy firewall and intrusion prevention technologies, the NSA Series looks at all traffic, regardless of port or protocol. The NSA Series blocks advanced malware attacks with the industry's highest on-the-fly SSL decryption rates. Its authentication server integration efficiently enforces acceptable use policy through granular application controls for bandwidth management and enhanced productivity. Unlike antiquated, two-box solutions that do not share threat information, the NSA Series integrates firewall and IPS. This connected intelligence enforces policy decisions to intensify security effectiveness, while slashing management burdens and organizational risk.

In addition, NSA Series firewalls feature network-based malware protection with cloud assist to provide organizations with an essential, primary layer of defense against millions of variants of malware.

NSA Series firewalls are also easy to administer and cost-effective because they support SonicWall's award-winning Global Management System platform that is capable of managing hundreds or even thousands of SonicWall firewalls from a single pane-of-glass console. Comprehensive real-time visualization shows what is happening on the network with thorough, on-box and off-box reporting.
