PRODUCT DATASHEET
Proactive Zero Day Attack Prevention
The robust network protection provided by the Firebox X
Edge is based on sophisticated proxy technologies.
They supply built-in, proactive defenses to block many
kinds of attacks including buffer overflows and Denial
of Service (DoS) attacks. This unique level of zero day
protection is far superior to products that rely solely
on packet filter and signature-based technology to
stop known threats. It puts strong defenses in place
from the moment you configure your Firebox X
appliance.
Added Protection in Critical Attack Areas
Powerful security subscriptions provide additional
layers of network protection. Fully integrated on the
Edge and continually updated, they work cooperatively
with the built-in defenses for a complete unified
threat management solution.

Appliances

System Manager (WSM)*. WSM streamlines VPN and
configuration management, allowing you to set unified
security policies across the entire network, push
appliance software updates to all managed Edges,
and effortlessly create drag-and-drop VPN tunnels.
WSM also provides comprehensive logging, flexible
security policies, and real-time monitoring tools.
