Threat Protection Designed for Small- to Medium-
Sized Businesses—Just Add the Network!
For most small- to medium-sized businesses (SMBs), security
is a huge challenge. With systems connected to the Internet,
any company could fall victim to malicious threats like viruses,
worms, hacker attacks, spam, and inappropriate content.
SMBs face this reality every day, often with limited IT staff
juggling various projects and with limited expertise to main-
tain and implement them. For SMBs that want to stay in
control of their defenses—monitoring protection, ensuring
system compliance, and troubleshooting problems—this is
an especially difficult reality. Administrators want to keep
the destiny of their security in their own hands without the
complexity. Threat protection without a means to centrally
manage it is like a human body without a brain.
Just like large corporations, smaller businesses are highly
dependent on their IT infrastructures and the Internet for
day-to-day operations. As with large corporations, the small
company has to strike a balance between business and
security requirements. However, unlike large corporations,
small businesses often lack dedicated security knowledge
and are looking for simple ways to manage their threat
protection. The importance of a simple and rapid method of
deployment, policy management, and visibility is paramount.

changes are a breeze via the easy-to-navigate task menu.
