Integrated gateway security solution.

Enhance the power of your Dell™ SonicWALL™ f irewall with Gateway Security Services, which combine gateway anti-virus, anti-spyware, intrusion prevention and application in elligence and control to give you real-time protection against sophisticated attacks.

Gateway anti-virus and anti-spyware

Leverage the gateway anti-virus and anti-spyware service to protect your organization from the latest global threats, inc luding blended threats that originate from multiple sources, operate at multiple layers and utilize multiple protocols. Guard a ainst Trojans, spyware, viruses and other malware threats by inspecting all email file attachments, ftp downloads and real-time applications such as IM and P2P for total, file-based threat control.

Because the gateway anti-virus and anti-spyware ser ice works in conjunction with Dell SonicWALL firewalls, you can ensure that all files — regardless of file size or compression are analyzed in real time, and that administrators receive proactive alerts whenever a threat is detected. The service also en bles you to prevent day-zero attacks with dynamically updated databases and an extensive list of virus and malware signatures. nd, because all threats are blocked at the gateway, your end users are prevented from downloading malware in the first place. In addition, the gateway anti-virus and anti-spyware service gives you the power to prevent auto-installation of ActiveX components and stop spyware programs from communicating with their hosts.

Its signature database to scans more than 2,800 applications and millio s of malware threats, allowing you to maintain granular control over your applications, prioritize or throttle bandwidth and de y website access. An Application Flow Monitor provides real-time graphs of applications, ingress and egress bandwidth, active web ite connections and user activity so you can monitor and control network use.
