Gateway Anti-Virus Appliances

Each year, the threat from viruses has grown larger. Increased internet traffic has enabled viruses to propagate faster and to cause more damage.

ICSA Labs calculated that the average complete cost of recovery for each medium-large organisation hit by a virus disaster (37% of 300 organisations surveyed) was over £500,000 in 2004.

This increased traffic has also put heavy strain on gateway anti-virus (AV) scanning, in some cases overwhelming it. At the same time, the virus threat has expanded. Major attack vectors now include websites and webmail on real-time network protocols such as HTTP in addition to email on SMTP. Moreover, today's "virus" threat comprises the full spectrum of malware: viruses, worms, Trojan horses, spyware, and other malicious software.

The CP Secure CSG product family line is certified by ICSA Labs for meeting and exceeding the highest standards in anti-virus detection.ICSA Labs certifies over 95% of the installed base of anti-virus, firewall, IPSec, cryptography, and PC firewall products in the world today.

Content Security Gateway Appliances

Developed by gateway AV pioneers, CP Secure's award-winning Content Security Gateway (CSG) appliances protect against the latest malware threats faced by IT professionals and their enterprise-class organizations. Current customers consider their CSG appliances mission-critical for the following reasons:

• Effective
  In a word, CSG appliances work. They scan in real-time on HTTP, SMTP, POP3, IMAP, FTP, and HTTPS and stop all known viruses, as well as worms, Trojan horses, spyware, and other malware at the internet gateway before they enter the network.
  
• Simple
  CSG appliances are true appliances. They deploy in a matter of minutes, run and update automatically, and are managed and monitored securely through the web.
  
• High ROI
  CSG appliances provide excellent value from day one. When the CSGs are deployed, they report the often astounding number of viruses, worms, Trojan horses, spyware, and other malware that they are stopping and quickly prove themselves as indispensable. Moreover, as part of a layered defense, the appliances complement customers' existing security products, thereby preserving and enhancing customers' past security investments.

Traditional gateway anti-virus products do not even begin to scan data until it is completely downloaded, significantly slowing delivery times.

CP Secure's revolutionary stream-based technology scans for viruses, worms, Trojans, and spam five times faster than traditional anti-virus solutions.

True plug and play architecture ensures virus protection in the time that it takes to connect the cables at any point in the network. All of this at a fraction of the cost compared to traditional anti-virus solutions.

CP Secure's Content Security Gateway appliances offer ideal anti-virus protection for today's networks, delivering high-performance, high-reliability defense at an accessible price.

Used in combination with your existing desktop virus protection, plug and play Content Security Gateways provide comprehensive protection in the time it takes to connect the cables.

Benefits of the CP Secure approach:
