ZyXEL Tailors IPSec VPN FirewallsBy Susan Hospod ZyXEL Communications released three ZyWALL firewall products to complement the ZyWALL product line. Designed on the same platform as the ZyWALL 10, and using the ICSA certified ZyNOS operating system, the ZyWALL 1, ZyWALL 50, and ZyWALL 100 are scaled to allow home or business users to purchase a firewall product with the exact number of VPN tunnels required. ZyWALL's IPSec VPN uses data encryption to provide transparent and secure transmission over the Internet between two or more sites. Not only does this translate into secure protection for data, it also provides immense cost savings by eliminating costly leased lines. The number of VPN tunnels offered by ZyWALL corresponds to the model number of each product. ZyWALL offers stateful packet inspection and Denial of Service (DoS) attack prevention, as well as Internet content filtering. These features prevent unauthorized access, theft, destruction, and modification of data from outside hackers, while effectively monitoring and controlling employees or users, who access non-productive or improper Web content. ZyWALL 1 offers 1 IPSec VPN tunnel, and is designed for telecommuters or home office users to access main office resources and transmit data securely. When installed, the ZyWALL 1 protects personal passwords, credit cards, and account information from hacker. ZyWALL 50 and ZyWALL 100 are the two business-class security gateways designed to service small to medium-sized businesses with 50 and 100 IPSec VPN. The ZyWALL 50 and ZyWALL 100 are recommended for 100 and 500 business users, respectively, to provide complete security solutions and to protect users' office Intranets while efficiently managing data on the network. Additionally, a DMZ (De-Militarized Zone) port on the ZyWALL 100 allows users on the Internet to access information on multiple public servers, such as Web or mail servers, while maintaining the security of the private LAN. An RS-232 WAN port allows the user to connect to a modem/TA as a dial backup if the broadband access circuit breaks up. All of the ZyWALL products are currently available and distributed through ZyXEL's global network of authorized distributors. All products come with a two-year materials and workmanship warranty and technical support. Link: |
