Secure VPN Now Available In WinRoute Firewall 6
WinRoute Firewall Maintains Position As Leading Internet Sharing Software Solution With Inclusion of VPN Server And Client
GAYLORD, MI — June 8, 2004 — Deerfield.com, an international provider of security and messaging software, announced today the launch of Kerio WinRoute Firewall 6, featuring a built-in, SSL-based VPN server and client for Windows.
“With the inclusion of a secure VPN server and client, WinRoute Firewall 6 is keeping pace with a growing trend in business computing—mobility,” said Mike Deerfield, Chief Executive Officer of Deerfield.com. “Wireless and mobile technologies today are enabling more people to ‘connect’ from the road or from home,” Deerfield continued. “Already serving as the market leader in Internet sharing and the only Windows-based firewall certified by the ICSA, WinRoute Firewall now gives organizations the added benefit of allowing mobile employees to connect to corporate IT resources easily and securely.”
WinRoute Firewall's built-in SSL-based VPN server works in both client-to-server and server-to-server modes, allowing both branch offices and remote workers to securely connect to the corporate LAN. The VPN allows people to remotely connect to IT resources such as file servers, database servers or even printers that are otherwise hidden behind a firewall and inaccessible to anyone outside the company offices.
More New Features in WinRoute Firewall 6:
- Email Antivirus Protection: WinRoute Firewall now incorporates gateway email antivirus protection that scans all email sent to your network, offloading these responsibilities from your email clients. WinRoute Firewall’s integrated antivirus support also features web and ftp virus scanning. It supports several antivirus engines, including the VisNetic AntiVirus Plug-in, McAfee, AVG, Avast, eTrust, Sophos and Symantec.
- Bandwidth Administration: To conserve and control bandwidth, WinRoute Firewall 6 allows administrators to impose user traffic quotas. When the quota is reached, WinRoute Firewall blocks the offender, and/or sends a warning email to the user and the administrator.
