MCI Consultants today announced its unified threat management (UTM) solution to combat the rapidly increasing threat from the Internet for enterprises.
Viruses, worms, Trojans, malware, spam, intrusion, spyware, bandwidth abuse, data leakage, phishing and pharming are just some of the threats facing both large and small enterprises, and there's no escaping them.
While external threats are taking a targeted, blended form of attack, internal threats are creating security loopholes that leave the enterprise vulnerable to attacks. Faced with such a rapidly evolving threat environment, enterprises require multiple security features to ensure comprehensive network protection.
Enterprises that have deployed multiple security solutions face the daunting task of managing and upgrading these solutions constantly, while at the same time adding to their capital and operating expenses.
The complexity involved in managing multiple security solutions has led to unified security with multiple security features over a single platform, ie, UTM, which is far more effective from both a maintenance and cost point of view.
The benefits of MCI's UTM solution include:
* Real-time protection against all Internet threats
* Rapid deployment
* Zero network configuration
* Single management interface - Web-based GUI
