NetScreen introduces firewall, security management platform

NetScreen Technologies has launched Deep Inspection, a firewall to help enterprises protect their organizations from complex application-level attacks. It also released Security Manager 2004, a comprehensive security management platform designed to control and monitor devices, network and give security configuration and policies for NetScreen's line of integrated firewall and virtual private network appliances and systems. 

The firewall provides protection against more than 250 application-level attacks and protocol deviations targeting key Internet services like web, e-mail and file transfer resources. Customers have the option of configuring the deep inspection protection on a per-policy basis for one, several or all supported protocols. 

The Deep Inspection builds upon the stateful firewall, VPN, denial of service protection and traffic management capabilities, currently available in NetScreen's integrated firewall/VPN appliances and systems to provide advanced network- and application-level protection. 

NetScreen-Security Manager manages the device throughout its life cycle, including deployment, configuration, surveillance, maintenance and upgrades. 

Additionally, a new powerful graphical user interface provides easy access to, and consistent intuitive display of, device-, network- and security-related data, allowing simple migration from one area of management to another. It simplifies the management of NetScreen product deployments and eases the allocation of specific management roles and functions throughout an IT organization.
