When administrating your network, IFWORLD uses multiple levels of security to protect you from inside and outside threats. When safeguarding your data and resources, there are many things to consider... e.g. file and folder permission levels internally, external server access, outside email access, web surfing.
One of the main maintenance and security tools we use to guard networks is the Astaro Security Gateway.
Astaro Security Gateway provides immediate protection for your network, web access and email traffic. The Astaro solution integrates more security applications than any competitor in one award-winning management device. A complete range of hardware appliances scale to the performance level which you demand.
Internet access exposes today's modern company to a wide variety of threats including denial of service attacks, port scans, worms, trojans, botnets and application exploits. Whilst security vulnerabilities in computer applications are found every day, hackers and criminals are also becoming more proficient in exploiting security weaknesses for fun or financial gain.
In order to defend networks against these threats, it is critical to employ an appropriate network protection mechanism, minimizing an organization's business risk whilst protecting confidential information.
For this purpose, organizations often implement point products such as IPS systems, VPN routers and firewalls. The countless disadvantages of this approach include the maintenance of multiple products, where one is required to continuously ensure full integration for the delivery of an effective solution.
Astaro Security Gateway eliminates these issues, providing a single, easy-to-manage and unified network protection solution.
Web surfing and file downloads can put your computer and network at risk from spyware and virus infection. Furthermore, applications such as Skype, Instant Messaging and Peer-to-Peer present many new risks for the company network which circumvent established protection mechanisms.
Web based threats are able to steal confidential information, disable computers, consume network capacity and drive up costs for computer support. Moreover, employee access to inappropriate sites could potentially induce legal consequences or reduce business productivity.
URL filtering and anti-virus tools only provide limited protection against these risks however. This approach requires the deployment and maintenance of multiple products, typically at the expense of time, effort and costs.
Astaro Security Gateway unifies the entire web filtering scope in one easy-to-use appliance, eliminating the complexity and high costs associated with multiple product deployment.
Your email is under attack. More than 80% of all messages are spam related, phishing attacks are on the rise and email spreads the majority of virus and spyware infections. Email filtering is therefore a major business requirement for organizations of all sizes.
Furthermore, email itself is an unprotected open format, comparable to a traditional postcard. This exposes organizations to major risks including the loss of vital information or violating industry regulations when disclosing confidential or proprietary information.
Securing email transaction has, up until now, required the use of complicated and expensive encryption technology.
The Astaro Security Gateway embodies a unified solution for all of these risks, combining email filtering and encryption in one powerful appliance.

We recommend that you upgrade to one of the following browsers:
Netscape 6+, Opera 6+, MSIE 6+
In an effort to create a more organized World Wide Web, the W3C has created many new Web layout standards. The key focus of their effort is to provide the best possible interoperability between the different browsing programs available.
In the days of the browser wars between Netscape and Microsoft, many hacks were propagated by the competing companies. However, today these hacks have done more to hurt the Web than to help the battling companies. By downloading and installing one of the programs listed above, the Web will be one step closer to eliminating these hacks and bugs.
