| GigaNetworks focuses on synergistic products--this benefits clients by delivering world-class offerings that ensure network security and application performance through the use of the following technologies: Firewalls These technological solutions allow GigaNetworks to provide an edge solution to give our clients protection, control, and acceleration for their business operation to be as effective, secured, and efficient as possible. Even within a single vendor’s offering, a solution often requires multiple products to ensure success. Firewalls have been around for two decades and have provided protection in an ever hostile environment. Products from Juniper Networks, Cisco, and Check Point lead in mind-share, but newcomers like Palo Alto Networks lead the technology curve. Proxy Appliances are sometimes thought of as URL filtering devices. However, URL filtering tends to be a limited subset of a full-feature Proxy Appliance. Features like content caching, live stream splitting, and user identification, and an ability to control outbound flows drives the proxy appliance market. URL filtering, being a subset of the features provided is still critical for the successful installation and operation of this technology. WAN Acceleration SolutionsWAN optimization is a collection of techniques for increasing data-transfer efficiencies across wide-area networks. The most common measures of TCP data-transfer efficiencies (i.e., optimization) are throughput, bandwidth requirements, latency, protocol optimization, and congestion, as manifested in dropped packets. IDS or intrusion detection systems is the final line of technology to create a shield around your organization. IDS attempts to uncover individuals trying to break through the firewall by evaluating anomalies within a data flow. IPS is the active part of IDS, or IDPS (intrusion detection and prevention system). IPS systems attempt to stop the intrusion via blocking the TCP/UDP flows. This type of active blocking process delivers an interesting problem – if the flow is expected but the IPS blocks it, business operation can be affected. The solution has to be monitored carefully for false positive operation. Link:
