Secure network gateway

World-class next generation protection for your internet connection

Image-Secure Network Gateway-Hero

Digital business demands next generation connectivity

Our secure network gateway service offers scalable, cloud-based protection for your business internet. Enabled through our IP-VPN, it offers:

  • A single, secure and reliable WAN platform, enabling your business to expand globally
  • Optimisation and prioritisation of your applications for maximum connectivity
  • Scalable and cost-effective bandwidth whenever and wherever you need it

Securing your business is a challenge

  • Highly complex: keeping track of a distributed IT environment
  • Low visibility: limited knowledge of how the network is being used and where the risks lie
  • Lack of security and staff expertise: a challenge to actively monitor and manage security
  • Cost pressures: high Capex and Opex costs related to the need to deploy, maintain and manage multiple technologies
  • User behaviour: employees are unaware that they may be compromising the business through poor practices
  • Avoiding lock-in: concerns about backing the wrong technologies which can soon become no longer fit for purpose
  • Difficult to scale: ensuring a consistent approach across all geographies and securing new initiatives

Network based internet access

Addresses the complexity of operating with multiple internet perimeters, growing bandwidth needs and managing multiple service providers across different geographies. By consolidating and centralising the provision of internet services globally, it provides your business with global access point coverage, real bandwidth scalability, control through real-time reporting, and a choice of managed services support options.

Network based firewall

Enforce a comprehensive security policy on inbound and outbound internet traffic, regardless of location, protecting the organisation by blocking malicious traffic at the internet access point, while reducing cost and managing complexity of security technologies. This gives your business complete control through rapid and easy configuration, greater visibility with advanced threat analytics and reporting. You also have the option to enable more advanced security features in support of local regulations and standards, and to migrate rulesets from your current firewalls to Secure Network Gateway.

Network based internet access

Intrusion detection and prevention

Guard your business against increasingly sophisticated and stealthy threats through up-to-date advanced intrusion protection, ensuring round-the-clock protection against network intrusions, vulnerability exploits and targeted attacks. Identify and stop bad traffic before it can compromise your business.

Secure remote user access

Enable your employees to rapidly access business-critical information when they’re working remotely without leaving your business or data exposed, providing flexible, reliable and secure global access to resources by employees - from email and apps to your corporate intranet. Secure remote user access can protect your communications remotely by preventing unauthorised access and only allowing connection following user authentication and device compliance checks. This module provides control by blocking the use of unapproved applications and prevents downloads to reduce the risk of viruses and malware. It supports multiple devices – from PCs, laptops, mobile to tablets – giving employees choice and helping them to stay productive.
