AhnLab releases ‘TrusGuard UTM,’ a reinforced DDoS defense technology

Seoul--(뉴스와이어)--AhnLab Inc. (CEO Hongsun Kim, www.ahnlab.com); a global security software vendor, released ‘AhnLab TrusGuard UTM,’ an integrated security system that has raised the DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) defense technology to the highest level among UTM products, reinforced endpoint interface security, and expanded the VPN function to a great extent.

'TrusGuard UTM' integrates the functions of individual solutions, such as firewall, IPS(Intrusion Prevention System), VPN(Virtual Private Network), etc. Its strength is the tight integration of AhnLab’s security contents technology, network security technology, and real-time emergency response system. In other words, security contents technology, such as Anti-Virus/Spyware/Spam, network security technology, such as firewall, IPS and VPN, and 24-hour 365-day real-time prevention/response service are chemically combined to provide the fastest speed and greatest efficiency among like products.

The reinforced functions are sophistication of the DDoS defense technology, a more powerful response to diverse DDoS attacks, reinforced interface with endpoint security solutions, expansion of the VPN function. Accordingly, AhnLab is now able to provide the best solution for changing business environment and latest security threats.

First, the DDoS defense technology of ‘TrusGuard UTM’ enhanced the existing domestic/international patented technology and raised its level to DDoS-exclusive solutions. It offers the strongest protection among like products by detecting/blocking DDoS attacks in 6 steps.

Second, ‘TrusGuard UTM’ can provide defense against the greatest variety of DDoS attacks among like products. Currently, it provides protection against various flooding attacks taking advantage of TCP vulnerabilities, ICMP/UDP flooding attacks, HTTP BotNet attacks, and Cache-Control attacks. AhnLab is planning to have DDoS experts respond systematically and swiftly to new attacks in the future.

Third, ‘TrusGuard UTM’ provides a close interface with endpoint security solutions. ‘TrusGuard UTM’ is the only local UTM solution that provides this integrated security function. ‘TrusGuard UTM’ can work hand in hand with ‘V3 Internet Security 7.0’ to not only prevent malicious codes from spreading internally, but also identify PCs without V3 and recommend its installation, and maintain a high level of PC security. It can provide effective network access control (NAC) by quarantining and curing infected PCs. AhnLab is going to further reinforce the user authorization function to prevent unauthorized users from accessing the internal network.

Fourth, ‘TrusGuard UTM’ extends the functions of SSL VPN and IPSec VPN. That is, it provides the standard protocol of IPSec VPN as default, and accommodates multiple high-speed Internet lines, and supports load-balancing and fail-over. In addition, it supports the High availability of UTM systems to ensure the availability of the VPN network, and interfaces with IPS to assess the risk of VPN network and prevent damage.

‘TrusGuard UTM’ is the first GB system in Korea. Diverse product groups are available in the market: ‘TrusGuard UTM 1000’ with 2GB of firewall processing capacity as well as 1.2GB ‘TrusGuard UTM 500,’ 800MB ‘TrusGuard UTM 400,’ and 400MB ‘TrusGuard UTM 100.’ It can satisfy all business customers from small and medium enterprises to large enterprises. In the first half of 2009 AhnLab is planning to release low-end products for small enterprises.

Mr. Kim Hongsun said, “The reinforced functionality of ‘TrusGuard UTM,’ equipped with a powerful contents security technology, has now transformed it into an all-weather solution that can meet VPN replacement demands as well as firewall substitution demands. AhnLab will capitalize on its own technical know-how to continuously apply new technologies to promptly meet customers’ needs.”
