Internet Solutions

CentriTMFirewall

Feature Centri Firewall
Platforms Microsoft Windows NT 4.0, Intel Pentium
Solution Focus Access control and logging of main Internet gateways, remote sites, and sensitive departments for IP-based networks
Target Markets Small (25-50 workstations) to medium (up to 500 workstations) size organizations and remote offices; organizations that prefer a software-based firewall solution running on Windows NT
Features

  • Easy To Use: Installation wizard with predefined security policies; Graphical policy manager with drag-and-drop policy assignment; Flexible network object definition as IP address, range or group of IP addresses, NT domain user and NT domain group; Secure remote administration

  • High Performance: Kernel Proxy0/00 inspects packets at the kernel level

  • High Security: Kernel Proxy does full application proxy inspection and logging; Kernel Proxy treats native TCP/IP stack as an independent virtual host, allowing other applications to run securely on the same machine that is running Centri Firewall; Real-time alarms and alerts

  • Granular Content and Access Control: Blocks Java, ActiveX, JavaScript and VBscript applets; Built-in URL blocking filtering; Restrict access by day of week and time of day; Selective Put and Get restriction for FTP; SMTP command filtering of SMTP commands and excess routing characters

  • Windows NT Integration: Reads NT user and group information; Verifies requester IP address against NT PDC to ensure appropriate user-specific policy is applied

Benefits

  • Don't need full-time security experts on staff

  • Easy to install with installation wizard and predefined security policies

  • Easy to define and view security policies with Graphical policy manager

  • Easy to manage security policies with drag-and-drop policy assignment onto NT domain users and groups

  • High packet throughput with high security

  • Kernel Proxy0/00 inspects packets at the kernel level

  • Kernel Proxy0/00 does full application proxy inspection and logging

  • Leverage system hardware cost

  • Securely run other server applications like DNS, E-mail, and Web on the same machine running Centri Firewall
