NGN Firewall and Analytics

Qwik Connect revolutionizes network connectivity by optimizing traffic routing and enhancing application performance across distributed locations. Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) ensures robust security with advanced threat detection and prevention capabilities, safeguarding networks against evolving cyber threats. Analytics solutions provide actionable insights into network performance, user behavior, and security posture, enabling informed decision-making and proactive network management.

• Dynamic Path Selection: Automatically selects the network path based on real-time conditions such as latency, packet loss, and bandwidth availability.
• Traffic Steering: Directs traffic over optimal paths, ensuring high performance for critical applications and services.
• Application-Based Routing: Prioritizes traffic based on application type, allowing for routing policies to optimize performance.
• Centralized Management: Provides a single interface for configuring, monitoring, and managing the entire network, simplifying administration and troubleshooting.
• Zero-touch Provisioning: Enables automatic deployment and configuration of Qwik Connect devices, reducing deployment time and complexity.
• Visibility and Analytics: Offers detailed insights into network performance, application usage, and user activity through comprehensive analytics and reporting tools.

Quality of Service (QoS):

• Hybrid WAN Support: Supports a variety of connectivity options including Internet Leased Line (ILL), MPLS, Broadband, LTE, and satellite, enabling organizations to leverage cost-effective alternatives without compromising performance.
• Cloud Connectivity: Facilitates direct and optimized connectivity to cloud services and applications, improving performance and user experience.

SSE & Next Generation Firewall

• Zero Trust Network Access
• GeoIP Blocking: Integrates with GeoIP databases to block traffic based on geographic locations, helping to mitigate threats from specific regions.
• CASB
• Stateful Packet Filtering
• Packet Filtering Rules: Administrators can create rules to allow, deny, or redirect traffic based on various criteria, including source/destination IP addresses, ports, protocols, and interfaces.
• Network Address Translation (NAT) & Port Forwarding
• Advanced Filtering Options: Offers advanced filtering options, including source and destination port ranges, ICMP types, TCP flags, and interface-specific rules.
• VPN Passthrough: Supports VPN passthrough for protocols like IPsec, PPTP, and L2TP, allowing VPN traffic to pass through the firewall without interruption.
• Packet Capture: Provides packet capture capabilities for troubleshooting and analyzing network traffic, including filtering options to capture specific packets based on criteria.
• Dynamic DNS: Supports Dynamic DNS services, allowing the firewall to maintain connectivity to services with dynamic IP addresses by updating DNS records automatically.

Analytics

• Performance Monitoring: Real-time monitoring metrics (latency, packet loss, jitter). Continuous assessment of bandwidth utilization and link quality across the Qwik Connect.
• Application Visibility: Identification and categorization of application traffic patterns and usage. Application performance and response times.
• User Experience Monitoring: Analysis of application response times and session quality. Monitoring user behavior and experience across different locations and devices.
• Security Analytics: Detection and analysis of security threats, anomalies, and vulnerabilities. Correlation of security events with network traffic patterns to identify potential risks.
• Traffic Optimization: Optimization of traffic routing and path selection based on real-time conditions. Identification of congestion points and alternative paths for efficient traffic steering.
• Capacity Planning: Forecasting of bandwidth requirements and network capacity based on historical data and trends. Planning for resource allocation and scalability to accommodate future growth.
• Compliance and Reporting: Generation of reports and dashboards for visibility into network performance and compliance. Tracking of key performance indicators (KPIs) and adherence to SLAs and security policies.
• User Analytics: Profiling of user behavior, preferences, and access patterns. Monitoring user activities and application usage to optimize network performance and resource allocation.
• Dynamic DNS: Supports Dynamic DNS services, allowing the firewall to maintain connectivity to services with dynamic IP addresses by updating DNS records automatically.
