Managed Firewalls
Firewalls are designed to protect your confidential, corporate and customer data from unauthorised users, by blocking and permitting traffic as your security policy dictates.
A firewall is a hardware or software solution to enforce security policies. In the physical security analogy, a firewall is equivalent to a door lock on a perimeter door or on a door to a room inside of the building - it permits only authorised users such as those with a key to enter. A firewall has built-in filters that can disallow unauthorised or potentially dangerous material from entering a network segment. It also logs attempted intrusions.
Features
No technical knowledge or specialist expertise is needed by the customer on firewall technology or policies. Claranet will configure and install the hardware device as well as help you to identify the firewall policy your business should adopt. Furthermore we will update or reconfigure your policy once in service, to reflect network or policy changes. We will also support, diagnose, monitor and replace faulty devices.
