Looking for a solution that is out of the box? The concept behind Network Box is a security service system managed remotely. Network Box sends and engineer on-site who delivers, sets up the device and performs an initial configuration, then leaves. But that is far from where Network Box's involvement in ends.
Everything else security wise is managed, monitored, updated and configured remotely by the Network Box operation centres (see their Web site for more details and NOC locations). Being an Internet connected device the NOC's can really be anywhere. If a business feels that their IT department is simply unable to keep up with the latest security threats and mitigation technologies -- or perhaps external security consultant costs are piling up then perhaps it is time to call Network Box.
Not only does the Network Box device act as a firewall, it also can perform gateway anti-virus scanning, gateway anti-spam, intrusion detection, VPN connections and content filtering.
Although someone else is assuming the responsibility and management of the gateway security, it is still worthwhile performing routing security scans and checks to ensure that everything is in order. It is also advisable to regularly check the reporting interface provided. It is easily accessed via a secure internal browser based address.
A managed security service may be worthwhile for small to medium enterprises aware of the damage a security breach could wreak, yet unsure or unable to adequately protect and defend their network. Even organisations wishing to add another layer of security to their existing infrastructure might be interested.
