VSX Overview 

The VSX (Virtual System eXtension) appliance is a security and VPN solution, designed to meet the 
demands of large-scale environments. Based on the proven security of Security Gateway, VSX provides 
comprehensive protection for multiple networks or VLANs within complex infrastructures. It securely 
connects them to shared resources such as the Internet and DMZs, and allows them to safely interact with 
each other. VSX is supported by IPS, which provide up-to-date preemptive security.
