| Consolidate Technologies
- While Improving Security
Traditionally, organizations deployed
point products to address new Internet threats. But with continuous
adoption of new technologies from different vendors not only license
costs skyrocket, but also training, integration, and management
efforts grow exponentially.
Therefore already over 30,000 organizations chose Astaro Security
Gateways to consolidate their security technologies: The combination
of enterprise-class network protection, email security and web filtering
in one simple, easy-to-use, unified solution brings many benefits:
- More efficient operations. Using the Astaro Security
Gateway in place of point products reduces management efforts
50% or more (The Tolly Group).
- Simplified purchasing. Vendor consolidation reduces
license and training costs. A single 24*7 support contact improves
accountability for results.
- Faster updates. Replacing multiple, often manual
update processes with one highly automated process closes the
window of opportunity available to attackers.
- More security. Nothing is more dangerous than not
deployed or incorrectly configured security technology – a risk
that a single simplified solution reduces drastically.
