WatchGuard XTM 1520-RP Series Next-Generation Firewall
Fully Extensible, Enterprise-Class Protection & Productivity Safeguards

Features:

Best-of-Breed Security

• Application-layer content inspection recognizes and blocks threats that stateful packet firewalls cannot detect.
• Powerful subscription-based security services boost protection in critical attack areas for multiple layers of defense. By partnering with leading technology providers, WatchGuard is able to integrate best-of-breed security components into one UTM platform for stronger security at big cost savings.
• Application Control keeps unproductive, inappropriate, and dangerous applications off limits.
• Intrusion Prevention Service delivers in-line protection from malicious exploits, including buffer overflows, SQL injections, and cross-site scripting attacks.
• WebBlocker controls access to sites that host objectionable material or pose security risk.
• Gateway AntiVirus (GAV) scans traffic on all major protocols to stop threats.
• spamBlocker delivers continuous protection from unwanted and dangerous email.
• Reputation Enabled Defense ensures faster, safer web surfing with cloud-based reputation
• Data Loss Prevention (DLP) automatically inspects data in motion for corporate policy violations.

Advanced networking features, such as dynamic routing and link aggregation, allow you to add security without needing to change existing network infrastructure.

Multiple VPN choices (IPSec, SSL, L2TP) for secure remote access include support for Windows, Mac, Android and Apple iOS devices.

Easy to Manage

• WatchGuard Dimension™ is a public and private cloud-ready security visibility solution that instantly turns raw data into security intelligence.
• Interactive, real-time monitoring and reporting – at no additional charge – give an unprecedented view into network security activity so you can take immediate preventive or corrective actions.
• Intuitive management console centrally manages all security functions.
• Fast, secure remote configuration and rapid deployment tools make it easy for large distributed enterprises and managed service providers to grow their businesses.
• Extend best-in-class UTM security to the WLAN by adding WatchGuard’s Wireless Access Points.
• Drag-and-drop Branch Office VPN setup – three clicks and your remote office is connected.

Highest UTM Performance in the Industry

• Firewall throughput of up to 35 Gbps to keep traffic moving.
• Best UTM throughput in its class – up to 10 Gbps – even with strong security enabled.
• No need to compromise protection for fast performance or vice versa. Multi-layered, interlocking security protects the network while throughput remains high.
• WAN and VPN failover provide redundancy for increased reliability.
• XTM 1525-RP and XTM 2520 models include four 10 Gb fiber ports, with 850 nm multimode SFP+ transceiver modules included for each interface.
