Performance is optimized with best of breed hardware technologies, which allow processor-intensive tasks to be offloaded from internal systems. The UTM-1000 ships with an Intel® Core™ 2 Duo processor, coupled with seven individual Ethernet interfaces on the PCI Express® bus and 2 Gigabytes of RAM.

Perimeter security prevents the bad guys, their attacks, viruses, spyware and malware from ever getting beyond the gatekeeper to your network. The UTM-1000 controls the Internet services users can access, as well as performing the traditional role of blocking access to hackers and other Internet threats. Automatic fail-over to a standby appliance protects against the unlikely event of hardware failure.

The UTM-1000 makes efficient and resilient use of multiple Internet connections. Both outgoing and incoming traffic can be load balanced across two or more connections, or use protocol specific routing to separate high priority traffic onto a dedicated connection. In the event of an ISP/connection failure, all affected traffic is automatically re-routed to an alternate connection.

Often ignored, the threat from within can be greater than from external hackers. The UTM-1000 allows local networks and DeMilitarized Zones (DMZs) to be segregated into multiple physically separate zones, with policy based user-level control of who can access what systems and services in other zones. Such segregation protects mission critical systems and confidential information from accidental access, inquisitive users or malicious interference.

The UTM-1000 includes a fully featured VPN gateway that supports site-to-site (inter office) VPN connectivity to both SmoothWall and other manufacturers' systems, as well as clientless Secure Remote Access for mobile users, home workers and wireless connections.

The integrated SmoothGuardian module provides fully featured web security and content filtering (as opposed to simplistic blocking based on URL alone). Guardian dynamically analyzes, understands and categorizes web pages so that all undesirable material and hidden content (including viruses, malware, anonymous proxies and browser exploits) can be accurately detected and blocked. Time based controls facilitate flexible and user-friendly filtering and advanced reporting tools help managers to monitor, understand and interpret web use.

The integrated SmoothZap module protects mail servers and user inboxes by enforcing email security at the network perimeter, before threats reach their intended targets. Optional support for the highly effective Mailshell anti-spam engine means unwanted emails can also be accurately identified and eliminated.

Policy based access control and user authentication are the keys to UTM security; based on authenticated user identity rather than assumed identity derived from a computer's IP address. Microsoft Active Directory®, Novell eDirectory™, LDAP and RADIUS authentication servers can be used to verify user identity, their group membership and hence determine the security policies to be applied.

As a fast and often more efficient alternative to email, instant messaging use is growing every day. However, when unmonitored it can encourage misuse, time-wasting and expose organizations to significant legal risks. Guardian incorporates tools to help managers block, monitor, log or censor IM conversations, so that misuse can be minimized and its advantages can be more easily evaluated.
