What Is the ProSecure Unified Threat Management (UTM)
Appliance?
The ProSecure Unified Threat Management (UTM) Appliance, hereafter referred to as the UTM,
connects your local area network (LAN) to the Internet through one or two external broadband
access devices such as cable modems or DSL modems. Dual wide area network (WAN) ports
allow you to increase effective throughput to the Internet by utilizing both WAN ports to carry
session traffic, or to maintain a backup connection in case of failure of your primary Internet
connection.
As a complete security solution, the UTM combines a powerful, flexible firewall with a content
scan engine that uses NETGEAR Stream Scanning technology to protect your network from denial
of service (DoS) attacks, unwanted traffic, traffic with objectionable content, spam, phishing, and
Web-borne threats such as spyware, viruses, and other malware threats.
The UTM provides advanced IPsec and SSL VPN technologies for secure and simple remote
connections. The use of Gigabit Ethernet LAN and WAN ports ensures extremely high data
transfer speeds.
The UTM is a plug-and-play device that can be installed and configured within minutes.
