Unified Threat Management for Comprehensive Internet Security By: Madhuri Narayan

In response to ever emerging threats and network vulnerabilities, the Unified Threat Management solutions provide comprehensive security solution in flexible environment with multiple security features on a single platform. Identity-based UTM Cyberoam offers a complete range of security features, including identity-based firewall, VPN, gateway antivirus, gateway anti-spam, intrusion detection and prevention, content filtering, as well as bandwidth management and multiple link management – all over a single platform.
UTMs like Cyberoam, a driving force in the market, are gaining popularity because they offer comprehensive network security while offering operational cost savings, and capital cost preservation.
The traditional security solutions are falling short in providing complete security as many of the solutions are implemented to address only immediate challenge. For instance a firewall deployment can allow access for legitimate or trusted traffic while keeping illegitimate or distrusted traffic out. Any threat beyond its defined scope can easily find entry to the network and cause havoc. Moreover with multiple stand alones the network topology becomes a complex, multi-vendor, multi-product that is difficult to manage and maintain and eventually results in a drain on resources.
Also, with the traditional standalones the organizations have to keep pace with frequent technology platform change, software & hardware changes and security policy changes. They also have to deal with frequent upgrades, periodic testing, and reconfigurations of traditional stand-alone security solutions.
There UTM solution with its dynamically updated gateway anti-virus, anti-spam and intrusion detection and prevention features is the only true method of keeping network security protected against new threats as they emerge. In fact according to IDC, the UTM segment of the Threat Management Appliance category is the fastest growing segment of the security market predicting it to outpace the traditional firewall/VPN appliances sector and other stand alones in a security market estimated at $3.45 billion by 2008.
