Virus Blocking

Two Great Apps to Protect Your Network

Virus Blocker, based on ClamAV, is an excellent virus blocker included in the bigElement Security Gateway. Kaspersky is the best-of-breed commercial add-on for organizations requiring the highest levels of network protection.

Spyware Blocker

Block Spyware at the Network Gateway

Spyware Blocker enables administrators to block spyware at the network gateway before it reaches users desktops. Zero client installations and an intuitive GUI make it easy for administrators to:

  • Protect users from browsing websites that install malware
  • Scan network traffic to block spyware before users can install it

Ensure that signatures are always current with automatic updates

Phish Blocker

Block Phishing & Pharming at the Gateway

Identity thieves are becoming increasingly sophisticated with email and website spoofs that are nearly impossible to discern from the real thing. Phish Blocker makes it easier for administrators to:

  • Protect users from email phishing attacks and fraudulent pharming websites
  • Protect multiple protocols, including HTTP, SMTP, POP & IMAP
  • Ensure that signatures are always current with automatic updates

Intrusion Prevention

Stopping Hackers at the Gateway

bigElement Intrusion Prevention blocks hacking attempts before they reach internal servers and desktops. Untangle’s pre-configured signature-based IPS makes it easier for administrators to:

  • Provide 24/7 network protection from hackers
  • Minimize annoying false positives
  • Ensure that signatures are always current with automatic updates

Attack Blocker

Keeping DOS Attacks at Bay

Attack Blocker stops denial of service (DOS) attacks. Pre-configured settings and an intuitive GUI make it easier for administrators to:

  • Provide 24/7 network protection from DOS attacks
  • Sort good traffic from bad with reputation-based heuristics
  • Put legitimate users with intensive bandwidth needs on Passlists

Firewall

Your First Line of Defense

Firewalls draw the line which separates internal and external networks. Untangle’s Firewall filters traffic based on IP address, protocol and ports that allow administrators to:

  • Designate which systems and services (http, ftp, etc.) are publicly available
  • Create a DMZ and perform NAT (with Router)
  • Run as a transparent bridge to complement existing hardware
