StoneGate Security Platform
StoneGate Firewall and VPN is part of the StoneGate Security Platform, which seamlessly unifies StoneGate Firewall, VPN and IPS functionality under one Management Center. The StoneGate Platform is designed to provide in-depth protection to corporate networks with several security layers and to detect and react to threats, while ensuring constant availability.
The StoneGate Management Center forms the heart of the platform, managing all the StoneGate firewall, VPN and IPS security modules, whether software-based solutions on Intel hardware, StoneGate security appliances or even on IBM® eServer® iSeries and zSeries servers. The combina-tion of StoneGate IPS and StoneGate Firewall/VPN under the same unified management makes network security management simple, consistent, and efficient, freeing up the administrator’s time to react and respond to any incidents.
As all data, concepts and tools are unified across the Platform, the Management Center is able to handle event correlation and incident management in a holistic way. Using advanced tools such as the built-in Reporting Tool,
the Management Center summarizes and visualizes system event data for revealing the trends and anomalies in network usage. It also has extensive customization and filtering features, thus making it a powerful aid for researching and documenting specific incidents and patterns.
With the StoneGate Security Platform, customers can build a customized solution that fits their needs for security, manageability, availability, scalability, and the size of their security budget.
StoneGate Firewall and VPN with Multi-Link Technology
• Internet multi-homing and route optimization• Automatically selects fastest available path
• VPN sub-tunnel failover for unmatched VPN reliability • Optimized performance with VPN load balancing
• Built-in clustering for gateway high availability and load balancing • Enables telecommunication cost savings up to 50%
All of Stonesoft’s appliances include
standard enterprise level features such as
active-active clustering, load balancing and
bandwidth aggregation for multiple Internet
links and the ability to transparently
fail-over VPNs, all with the
security and connectivity of an
integrated firewall/VPN.

Total Cost of Ownership
Secure firewall and VPNs with clustering
and availability together for business continuity
and network security.
When security breaches or system failures interrupt the flow of business information, downtime can cost information-intensive companies millions every hour. Marketplace damage accumulates. Relationships suffer.
Because business functions and communications can fail for a variety of reasons, traditional approaches to information security are rapidly becoming outmoded. For organizations that have expanded their use of the Internet, a new, broader definition of network security is emerging. Stonesoft engineered a fundamentally new and different firewall and VPN architecture that provides a degree of network security and business continuity not possible with traditional approaches. By incorporating our high availability and high performance technologies into our firewall and VPN solution, StoneGate delivers the assurance of continuous, uninterrupted protection. What was once a resource-intensive, high cost, and technically risky solution from multiple vendors, Stonesoft has integrated and simplified into a single, intelligent source for security, manageability, availability and scalability.
StoneGate Advantages
Make your Internet and VPN connections reliable. StoneGate’s patented Multi-Link technology provides high availability and load balancing for Internet and VPN traffic across multiple network providers (ISPs). StoneGate automatically maintains the fastest possible link to the Internet and eliminates your Internet connection as a potential point of failure, without the use of complex routing protocols or additional hardware.
Set rules for the level of inspection. Firewall traffic inspection has typically forced a trade-off between the speed and flexibility of stateful inspection and the high security of application-level proxy inspection. StoneGate’s patent-pending Multi-Layer Inspection technology
accomplishes both security goals. With it, the administrator can configure the firewall to act as a packet filter, stateful inspection or application level firewall on a rule-by-rule basis, using each method when it makes the most sense. Benefit from unified enterprise management.
StoneGate Firewall and VPN is managed by the StoneGate Management Center, which provides centralized, global distributed management with one single management server. The Management Center is controlled with a sophisticated user interface that can be distributed anywhere in the organization, making installation, configuration, remote upgrades, and maintenance easier and less time consuming.
StoneGate’s software edition turns
standard x86 server systems into
firewall/VPN appliances in a matter of
minutes. Additionally, StoneGate software
supports the IBM
®eServer
®zSeries and
iSeries platforms, enabling secure virtual
networks for consolidated servers while
enhancing security on legacy systems.
The StoneGate VPN Client provides
mobile users with simple, centrally
managed, secure access to the
corporate network. It also includes an
active traffic filter, which can protect
the mobile machine from unauthorized
traffic on the mobile network as well.
Lower Total Cost of Ownership
Today’s IT departments are constantly being asked to do more for less. Cost, and total cost of ownership is one of the first questions asked about any network solution. When there is a need for advanced network security combined with always-on business connectivity, enterprises can choose StoneGate. StoneGate offers the lowest up-front costs, reduced maintenance costs, lower support and maintenance fees and highest ROI of any high-end firewall, VPN and IPS solution.
StoneGate eliminates the need for separate, third party high availability and load-balancing solutions, e.g. server load balancing solutions, firewall clustering solutions and ISP load balancing solutions. Less hardware, software, and rackspace is needed. Fewer components means lower operating costs. StoneGate´s patented Multi-Link technology provides high availability for Internet VPNs, enabling enterprises to migrate from expensive leased lines to VPNs, thus reducing connection costs.
StoneGate’s powerful management system, StoneGate Management Center lowers administrative burdens. Routine administration tasks are reduced, freeing the highly trained administrators for more important work. With StoneGate, customers can optimize their choice of hardware to fit their needs and budget using easy-to-use StoneGate Appliances or cost-effective Intel-based hardware.
