Their products combined with our services, let us deliver you the very best Manage Firewalls in the industry.
How it Works
Your firewall sits between your dedicated servers and the public Internet to protect your hosting environment from malicious traffic. It filters the inbound and outbound traffic against a set of rules that you create with the assistance of our security engineers. Based on these rules, it will only permit legitimate traffic through to your servers and keep the bad stuff away.
Dedicated vs. Shared Firewalls
Your Managed Firewall is dedicated to your hosting environment and is not shared by any other customers, so there is no chance of it being compromised by another person. You also enjoy features like site-to-site and client-to-client VPN with a dedicated firewall. This gives you the convenience of connecting from your home or office to your firewall, securely.
Many Firewalls to Choose From
The right Juniper firewall to fit your needs. From value-priced models ideal for dev and low traffic needs, all the way up to custom enterprise firewalls for high traffic, high availability complex hosting environments. We can satisfy your security needs while keeping your costs in line. If you need high availability, Juniper has plenty of options for you. You can get an Active-Active or an Active-Passive solution in all of Juniper's SSG firewalls. The SSG models deliver an excellent combination of high performance and tight security.
Performance and Flexibility
Juniper is continually improving their firewall features and performance. Several software updates have resulted in doubling the session performance on their firewalls. They also share similar configuration files, so upgrading (or downgrading) your firewall is extremely easy and can be completed quickly. This can be a huge advantage if your site experiences a sudden burst of traffic.
