Leading European cybersecurity player, Stormshield announces the launch of its new SN-XS-Series-170 firewall, designed to meet the specific needs of small businesses and traders. This innovative solution offers 3 Gbps firewall performance and incorporates one of the most comprehensive security feature sets on the market.
Advanced network security features
The SN-XS-Series-170 is equipped with advanced features such as firewall, an intrusion prevention system (IPS), application control, a VPN, antivirus, antispam and web filtering. This fanless solution is specially designed for small organisations, offering optimum protection while ensuring silent operation and low maintenance.
Based on a robust architecture, the SN-XS-Series-170 also delivers 1 Gbps IPsec VPN throughput for secure remote communications. With its high hardware availability and WAN link redundancy capabilities, it effectively satisfies SD-WAN requirements, enabling secure linking of remote sites via VPN and reduced WAN connection costs.
“Small organisations are often prime targets for cybercriminals because of their limited cybersecurity resources,” explains Stormshield Product Manager Stéphane Moreau. “The SN-XS-Series-170 firewall is a solution designed to meet this challenge, addressing the needs of small businesses and traders looking to protect their networks effectively, while benefiting from simplified management and optimum service continuity.”
Key features of the SN-XS-Series-170
- Service continuity: high hardware availability minimises downtime for critical systems, WAN link redundancy ensures that services remain accessible and operations are not interrupted, and optimised WAN link management via SD-WAN provides intelligent, dynamic traffic routing.
- Optimum security: its advanced web filtering, antivirus, antispam, IPsec VPN, intrusion prevention and access management features provide small businesses with comprehensive security and high-performance network protection.
- Secure VPN secrets via a TPM chip: the keys needed to establish secure connections are stored in a protected environment, making them difficult to exfiltrate or compromise, and ensuring that only authorised users and devices can access the network.
