Unified Threat Management (UTM) is a comprehensive solution that has recently emerged in the network security industry and has gained widespread importance as a primary network gateway defense solution for organizations.The goal of UTM is to simplify the overall security solution despite the growing scope and rising complexity of the security problem. The main benefit of UTM solutions, when all key security functions are activated, is to provide a comprehensive protection against Internet attacks and counter multi-level attacks or blended threats.

Our extensive network of resellers will enable us to extend the reach of gateProtect’s overall product line.
