Securing your small business
In recent years, the volume of attacks against small businesses has surpassed the number against
enterprise organizations. However, small businesses do not have the IT staff resources or budgets of larger organizations.
Modern advances in security technology offer your small business the opportunity to deliver enterprise-class protection within your small business budget.
Small businesses need an effective way to defend
themselves against today’s sophisticated threats
without spending too much time or money.

Challenge: Outdated security
Today’s emerging threats are blended attacks that use different techniques to bypass the outdated stateful packet inspection technology offered by most vendors.
Solution: Unified Threat Management (UTM)
Unified Threat Management (UTM) solutions provide a higher level of protection by scanning traffic for the latest threats, including vulnerabilities and malware. By scanning more traffic, UTM solutions reduce the chance of machines on your network receiving a virus or malware infection. Regular countermeasure updates allow the UTM solution to stay ahead of the latest threats.

Challenge: Provide the best available protection
You need to know that the UTM solution you purchased provides the highest level of protection without slowing down your network. Moreover, your UTM solution should not be limited by the size or number of files that can be scanned concurrently.
Solution: Reassembly-Free Deep Packet Inspection® (RFDPI)
Not all UTM solutions are the same. Dell™ SonicWALL™
firewalls provide organizations of any size with a deeper level of network security. These industry-leading firewalls are designed with a scalable, multi-core hardware architecture and a patented, single-pass,
low-latency, Reassembly-Free Deep Packet Inspection (RFDPI) engine that scans all traffic, regardless of port or protocol. Dell SonicWALL next-generation firewalls (NGFWs) ensure that every byte of every packet is inspected—while maintaining the high performance and low latency that busy networks require.
In addition, to enable your organization to combat emerging threats effectively, Dell SonicWALL NGFWs provide a deeper level of security and control, including an Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) with advanced anti-evasion capabilities and network-based malware protection that leverages the power of the cloud.

Challenge: Cumbersome implementation and administration
Small business network administrators often try to combat different emerging threats by cobbling together separate point solutions, which leaves gaps in protection and introduces additional cost and complexity. In addition, because traditional UTM solutions are based on original equipment manufacturer (OEM) technologies, each one can require policies, which can increase deployment time and lead to a less secure UTM deployment.
Solution: Ease of use and management
By consolidating multiple security technologies in a single UTM solution, your small business can optimize productivity, minimize total cost of ownership (TCO) and maximize security. The UTM solution should provide a simple-to-use, cohesive management interface that allows quick and accurate UTM policy deployment, in order to decrease deployment mistakes and increase security.
Challenge: Incomplete and complex anti-spam protection
Most UTM solutions that provide anti-spam
functionality rely on real-time blacklists (RBLs) and other less-accurate methods for blocking spam. Additionally, some solutions require you to set up a server to run third-party software to provide additional spam blocking options.
Solution: Comprehensive anti-spam
A comprehensive anti-spam service on the firewall should remove spam, phishing and virus-laden messages from inbound SMTP-based email before that email reaches the network. A hybrid-cloud design simplifies set-up while optimizing protection, since there is no need to redirect mail exchanger (MX) records or send email to another vendor to be “cleaned.”

Challenge: Lost internet connectivity
Most small businesses rely on their internet
connection to run their daily business, and connect their business locations, partners and customers over a wide area network (WAN). Service
interruptions lead to downtime and decrease business productivity.
Solution: 3G/4G failover
UTM solutions should provide a method of WAN redundancy that includes WAN failover and load balancing. For additional redundancy, you can take advantage of today’s 3G/4G cellular technology by adding a USB-based 3G/4G adapter, which will enable the UTM appliance to seamlessly fail over to the wireless network.
Challenge: Network growth management
As your business grows, you need an easy way to segment systems on your network and enforce policy.
Solution: Contextual port interfaces
UTM solutions can enable you to easily control access by providing network segmentation on the UTM appliance.

Challenge: Security of WiFi
While most companies rely on wired networks, many are now purchasing devices that provide 802.11n technology.
Solution: Clean wireless networks—as secure as wired networks
Clean wireless delivers the innovative dual
protection of high-speed secure wireless combined with high-performance UTM. By integrating
802.11n-compatable wireless access points with UTM firewalls, clean wireless can support and enforce one set of security policies over the entire network.

Mobile access solutions
Challenge: The rise of bring your own device (BYOD)The way people work has fundamentally changed, and mobile devices are at the forefront of this shift. Workers are no longer chained to their offices: they can work from anywhere at any time—and they do. Moreover, mobile users have become accustomed to having the internet, email and calendaring applications at their fingertips. Now they’re also demanding mobile access to business-critical applications and the ability to choose to use a corporate device or their own.
Solution: Secure mobile access
To address mobile and remote workforce needs, Dell delivers a secure mobile access solution that combines its intuitive Mobile Connect app and UTM appliances. The solution enables you to provide secure SSL VPN access to mission-critical apps and data from a wide range of smartphone, tablet, laptop and desktop devices.
Whether a device is managed or unmanaged, you can create and enforce a security policy that allows mobile and remote employees, partners and contractors to access only the data they’re allowed to access, and to access it only from trusted devices. In addition, the solution features centralized access policy management that enables more efficient administration than competitive platforms.
