SonicWall TZ500 Network Security/Firewall Appliance

The SonicWall TZ series of Unified Threat Management (UTM) firewalls is ideally suited for any organization that requires enterprise-grade network protection.

SonicWall TZ series firewalls provide broad protection with advanced security services consisting of on-box and cloud-based anti-malware, anti-spyware, application control, intrusion prevention system (IPS), and URL filtering. To counter the trend of encrypted attacks, the TZ series has the processing power to inspect encrypted SSL/TLS connections against the latest threats. Combined with SonicWall X-Series switches, selected TZ series firewalls can directly manage the security of these additional ports.

Backed by the SonicWall Global Response Intelligent Defense (GRID) network, the SonicWall TZ series delivers continuous updates to maintain a strong network defense against cybercriminals. The SonicWall TZ series is able to scan every byte of every packet on all ports and protocols with almost zero latency and no file size limitations.

The SonicWall TZ series features Gigabit Ethernet ports, optional integrated 802.11ac wireless, IPSec and SSL VPN, failover through integrated 3G/4G support, load balancing and network segmentation. The SonicWall TZ series UTM firewalls also provide fast, secure mobile access over Apple iOS, Google Android, Amazon Kindle, Windows, Mac OS X and Linux platforms.

The SonicWall Global Management System (GMS) enables centralized deployment and management of SonicWall TZ series firewalls from a single system.

Managed security for distributed environments

Schools, retail shops, remote sites, branch offices and distributed enterprises need a solution that integrates with their corporate firewall. SonicWall TZ series firewalls share the same code base-and same protection-as our flagship SuperMassive next-generation firewalls. This simplifies remote site management, as every administrator sees the same user interface (UI). GMS enables network administrators to configure, monitor and manage remote SonicWall firewalls through a single pane of glass. By adding high-speed, secure wireless, the SonicWall TZ series extends
the protection perimeter to include customers and guests frequenting the retail site or remote office.
