Stonesoft added innovative disaster recovery and advanced usability to Secure Connectivity Solution

Stonesoft Corporation, an innovative provider of integrated network security and business continuity solutions, announces new revolutionary features to StoneGate™ Secure Connectivity Solution. The new features include innovative disaster recovery, advanced usability features and easy VPN setup.

HELSINKI, Finland– 16 May, 2007 - StoneGate Management Center 4.0 stands out through its user-friendly navigation, advanced log filters and search tools. New usability features allow administrators to easily customize the GUI for their needs. With the sophisticated search tools, finding relevant log entries from the huge number of log files and managing the security elements within complicated security rules in large environments is fast and easy.

Stonesoft introduces a backup management system concept for the Secure Connectivity Solution. It secures the information flow and business continuity of companies, even after a major disaster. For example, in case office connections are struck by a disaster, employees can use StoneGate Secure Mobility solution to work from home. 

“Situation awareness is the key to keep large business environment secure, connected and operational around the clock”, says Klaus Majewski, Product Marketing Manager at Stonesoft. “ StoneGate Secure Connectivity Solution provides administrators with real-time information that is easy to understand and fast tools to prevent and block any disruptions from the business environment. This results in considerably lower total cost of ownership even in the most demanding environments.”

StoneGate Secure Connectivity Solution offers easy VPN setup to secure connections between offices with several connectivity options. For example, having several different types of Internet connections such as ADSL, cable, MPLS and/or satellite does not require any actions or co-operation with the Internet Service Providers (ISP), which results in improved cost-efficiency. StoneGate combines all different connection types to one virtual, resilient connection that works without interruptions.

The StoneGate™ Secure Connectivity Solution comprises of a Firewall and an Intrusion Prevention System (IPS). The StoneGate IPS defends the network proactively by detecting malicious packets within regular network traffic and blocking them before any damage occurs. Implementing StoneGate IPS expands the defence further within networks enabling comprehensive, multi-dimensional network security. StoneGate Firewall and IPS work together to provide intelligent defence all over the enterprise network.
