Cyberoam Provides Security for Small Businesses(AllAfrica Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Cyberoam, a leading global provider of network security appliances, has launched CR10iNG, "the fastest & most affordable Unified Threat Management (UTM)" appliance for SOHO/ROBO markets. The appliance aims to extend enterprise level network security to small and branch offices, making them ready for security needs of the future. With Firewall throughput of 400 Mbps and UTM throughput of 60 Mbps, Cyberoam CR10iNG is the fastest UTM security device in its class for small and branch offices. Managing security at Remote Offices and Branch Offices (ROBO) remains a unique challenge for enterprise IT and security service providers (MSSPs). Lack of on-site IT security staff and budgetary constraints further make it difficult to find security solutions that are adequate, cost-effective and easy to manage. Highly distributed branch-based organisations in retail, hospitality, financial services, government agencies and healthcare are prime candidates for attacks. Hence the need to beef up network security, remote access and employee productivity. Target breach is a classic example of how poorly guarded small office networks are used as a gateway to attack large enterprise businesses. "Several organisations have paid price for lax in security at their branch offices. While they deploy best security at their main office, hackers find their way into the networks by breaking the security at smaller offices. This is becoming even more frequent as the work-from-home culture is gaining greater acceptance; home office locations are rarely ready for modern day security challenges," said Senior Vice President- Technology & Products, Cyberoam. Abhilash Sonwane. "CyberoamCR10iNGappliance is designed to bring small branch/home office security at par with corporate HQ. It enables secure VPN access for remote and mobile workers, letting them access business apps and servers securely," he said. Built on the same CyberoamOS that powers other high-end NG series UTM appliances, CR10iNG brings in the next-generation security features as its bigger counterparts. With Cyberoam CR10iNG, organisations can ensure secure remote access to its employees on the move or those working from remote locations with IPSec or SSL VPN. Copyright Daily Independent.
