| Today, enterprises and service
providers face increasing security challenges in their distributed
networks, from security and virus attacks to enforcing security
policies. As a distributed network grows and branches into
multiple subnetworks linked by the Internet, so does the complexity
of managing security appliances, security policies, and updates.
A single flaw in security implementation at any point in the
network can expose the entire infrastructure, allowing malicious
access to important data and files with severe consequences.
Managing security for distributed networks on a site-by-site
basis is time consuming, expensive, and unreliable, putting
a big strain on already limited resources.
SonicWALL Global Management System (SonicWALL GMS) enables
distributed enterprises and service providers to manage and
monitor thousands of SonicWALL Internet security appliances
from a central location with a powerful, flexible, and intuitive
application. SonicWALL GMS delivers a cost-effective global
security management solution that reduces staffing requirements,
speeds up deployment, and lowers the cost of managing security
services.
SonicWALL GMS gives administrators the integrated tools to
manage all security policies and services throughout a large-scale,
multiple policy enterprise or service provider environment.
Administrators can easily configure SonicWALL firewall settings,
deploy VPN to any user, and add SonicWALL upgrade and subscription
services, such as Complete Anti-virus and Content Filtering
Service with the click of a button.
