Business Wire
Check Point� Software Technologies Ltd. (Nasdaq:CHKP), the
worldwide leader in securing the Internet, today announced the
expansion of its UTM-1 Total Security� appliance line with the
addition of a new model, UTM-1 130�, providing small businesses and
branch offices an all-inclusive security gateway to protect for
only $3,500. The UTM-1 130 simplifies security by combining the
industry�s leading firewall, virtual private network (VPN),
intrusion prevention, anti-virus, anti-spyware, URL filtering, Web
security and messaging security into one centrally-managed,
turn-key solution.
When considering their security options, small businesses and
branch offices face either deploying a solution outside their
budget to achieve enterprise-class security or compromise their
level of security by purchasing a less expensive solution. The
UTM-1 130 appliance is ideal for small business and branch office
environments of typically between 5 and 75 users that need a
security appliance in desktop form factor.
�Our partners and customers have long requested to get the full
Check Point software in a smaller package and at a lower price
point to fit their small business and branch office locations,�
said Dr. Dorit Dor, vice president of products at Check Point. �Now
businesses don�t have to compromise and can benefit from the full
value of Check Point solutions. The UTM-1 130 provides customers a
proven, tightly integrated security solution that can be managed
locally or remotely from a central location.�
As with other Check Point UTM-1 Total Security appliances, the
UTM-1 130 delivers maximum security at high-performance levels,
eliminating security as a network bottleneck and allowing customers
more room to grow while maintaining optimal security. The UTM-1 130
minimizes costs and simplifies operations with the same proven
built-in centralized security management system used in Check Point
enterprise-class solutions. In addition, each UTM-1 130 appliance
includes complete security updates, hardware support and customer
support for up to 3 years.
Check Point UTM-1 130 Total Security features and benefits
include:
- All inclusive security including
firewall, VPN, intrusion prevention, anti-virus, anti-spyware, URL
filtering, Web security, and messaging security
- High performance level of
400Mbps for only $3,500 in convenient desktop form factor
- Built in management allows for
local administration, but the device can also be managed centrally
with Check Points SmartCenter� and Provider-1�, simplifying
deployment and streamlining security management of the office
- Security updates enhance
security levels and support for 3 years ensures longevity of the
appliance
�Branch or small offices typically don�t have the same technical
resources as larger work environments,� said�David Ellis, Director
of E-Security and Professional Services at COMPUTERLINKS. �In
today�s tough economic climate, consolidated security solutions
help small and medium enterprises benefit from lower capital,
implementation and maintenance costs and this UTM appliance offers
them the same proven Check Point security that protects the top
enterprise organisations, all from a single managed device.�

�Check Point UTM-1 130 solves the dilemma small businesses and
