FEATURES

Advanced detection and protection against threats
Hillstone A-Series NGFW includes a full arsenal of mechanisms to provide real-time detection and protection against a wide spectrum of network attacks and malware. The A-Series includes anti-spam, cloud sandbox and botnet C&C protection, as well as IPS, IP reputation, URL filtering, anti-virus, etc. The next-generation firewall's unified threat detection and analysis mechanism coordinates all security mechanisms to significantly increase performance while reducing network latency.

Efficient hardware architecture
The new A-Series features a compact form factor and powerful computing facilities that provide superior application-layer performance to meet real-world network security needs. The A-Series NGFWs offer robust performance in terms of firewall throughput, concurrent and new sessions, as well as lightning-fast performance at the application layer, which is key to meeting the needs of today's security environments.
All rack-mount models feature front and rear ventilation to help dissipate heat, a problem in networks of almost any size.

Excellent storage access and expansion capabilities
The Hillstone A-Series offers a high density of I/O ports, allowing the NGFW to act as a switch or router as needed, lowering deployment and management costs. Expansion slots are available for many A-Series models to further enhance performance. Bypass pairs on most A-Series models help ensure business continuity. All models, including desktop versions, include a large 8GB onboard memory and are expandable with a generous hard drive of up to 2TB for longer log retention, deeper analysis, richer reports and better visibility.

Smart and efficient policy handling
The A-Series includes intelligent management and support throughout the policy lifecycle, from deployment to management, optimization and operation. This next-generation firewall system features automated deployment of user policies using dynamic RADIUS authentication. Policy management is made much more efficient by grouping policies based on business requirements.
