Consolidating all major perimeter security functions in one system, the Sidewinder® Network Gateway Security appliance is the strongest self-defending perimeter firewall in the world. Built with a comprehensive combination of high-speed application proxies, TrustedSource™ reputation-based global intelligence, and signature-based security services, Sidewinder defends networks and Internet-facing applications from all types of malicious threats, both known and unknown. Enterprises use Sidewinder to secure access to their networks and protect Internet-facing applications, as well as monitor and manage employee use of the Internet, kill hidden attacks in packet streams, block viruses and spyware in file transfers, and create a forensic-quality audit trail for regulatory compliance and reporting.

IDC, a leading analyst firm, defines Sidewinder as a Unified Threat Management (UTM) security appliance. These security appliances integrate multiple security functions with a firewall under one unified management to improve the security posture of networks while simultaneously reducing equipment and administration costs. For its part, Sidewinder is a multi-function firewall appliance that delivers true enterprise-class features and performance, while most other UTM devices are only appropriate for small to mid-sized organizations. Sidewinder Network Gateway Security appliances are built for and broadly deployed in the largest government and corporate networks in the world. Sidewinder's multi-gigabit performance capabilities and hardware monitoring and redundancy features allow you to run its multiple security functions simultaneously; including its multi-layer firewall, TrustedSource reputation services, ASICs-accelerated IPS, anti-virus, anti-spyware, anti-spam, URL filtering/blocking, VPN encryption services, and more.
