InstaGate:

The new standard in scalable network security

Threats evolve quickly. A worm launched at 1:00 can easily have a half-dozen variants at 1:30. Because of this, your security system must evolve and adapt rapidly as well.

InstaGate security gateways are scalable unified threat management (UTM) solutions that combine Anti-Virus, Spyware, Spam, Phishing and Intrusion Prevention and more into a high-performance Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) Firewall and IPSec VPN architecture. Through its sophisticated inspection capabilities, InstaGate gateways offer unparalleled protection from dynamic, content-based threats that elude traditional firewalls. What’s more, eSoft’s patented SoftPak Director security services infrastructure will ensure that the InstaGate is always providing maximum protection with the most up-to-date threat databases available.

Powerful, Easy-to-Manage Security

Threats do not discriminate. The most recently launched virus attacked Global 2000 enterprises the same way it did the local library and coffee shop. Enterprises generally have the staff and resources to deal with these threats… smaller organizations typically do not. From the installation wizards that guide the user through initial device set-up and VPN setup, to the built-in diagnostics that help ensure that every piece of the network is operating as it should, InstaGate gateways provide thorough, yet costeffective protection with maximal ease-of-use.

What’s more, InstaGate’s high-performance hardware architecture and large, high-speed storage systems deliver high throughput, high reliability and exceptional performance, meeting the needs of the most demanding network environments.

Real-time Threat Protection through SoftPaks and
SoftPak Director

A modern security appliance must be the master of many disciplines in order to provide complete network protection. Through modular SoftPaks, the user can scale the appliance for services such Anti-Virus, Anti-Spam, Intrusion Prevention and even Web Content Filtering as the need arises. Then, with eSoft’s distributed SoftPak Director architecture, all eSoft appliances automatically receive real-time software and signature updates. Any time, anywhere in the world.

ThreatMonitor - Vital Threat Statistics at Your Fingertips

ThreatMonitor is a graphical management tool designed to help IT managers better understand the behavior of network traffic, as well as network threat activity.

ThreatMonitor collects, interprets and graphically summarizes critical system and network information to help the IT manager make more informed decisions regarding network usage and security policies. Threat Monitor provides a graphical window into each security subsystem, including Spyware, Intrusion Prevention, Virus, Spam and system statistics.

An Architecture Built for High Performance and Low Maintenance

Deep Packet security requires a vast amount of CPU, disk and storage resources. InstaGate’s high-performance hardware architecture and large, high-speed memory arrays delivers high throughput, high reliability and exceptional performance, meeting the needs of even the most demanding network environment. Standard RAID-1 mirroring on the InstaGate 806 adds reliable data redundency and recovery.

Optional Network Servers - the Ultimate Integrated Appliance

In addition to dynamic network security, many of the InstaGate appliances offer expendability through Email and Webmail servers as well. The result is a true all-in-one appliance for virtually any small-to-medium size organization.
