From October 12th to 16th, the network security specialists will demonstrate eGUI - a network to touch that offers an easy to use drag & drop-surface to administrate UTM firewalls in hall 2 | stand 204. Further highlights are the release of the firewall version 9.5 with reverse-proxy function as well as version 5.2 of the Next Generation Firewall Network Protector.

For IT experts and technophiles, this event is a must: At the GITEX in Dubai, the leading tradeshow of technological trends, countless visitors from the entire EMEA region are expected also this year. About 25,000 representatives from the C level, 3,700 international technology companies and 142,000 visitors made last year’s GITEX the greatest and most important event of the region. The reinvention of firewall administration managed with gateprotect’s WebGUI will be demonstrated at stand 204 in hall 2.

A network to touch
With its patented eGUI technology gateprotect successfully indicated that administrating larger corporate networks can be quite simple without lacking security and efficiency. This technology, which has already been successfully established in the market, provides operators with an overview and allows them to deploy IT security solutions that may be quickly administered and safely operated. With respect to the growing number of security functions and the complex defense mechanisms, this is a decisive advantage in the fight against threats from the Internet and the loss of data.

The firewall administration is immensely simplified thanks to the fully visual display of the company network in the eGUI. The unique usability approach renders complex IT security systems much more transparent and comprehensible to the administrator.

With just one click on an object administrators are able to view all firewall rules no matter if desktop PC, server or printer. With this technology gateprotect continues to follow its "easy-to-use“ approach.

Release UTM-Firewall Version 9.5
With the release of software version 9.5 gateprotect shows comprehensive reverse proxy functionalities for high performance UTM firewalls to set up dedicated filter rules or loadbalancing guidelines. The benefit of highest security standards that a reverse proxy offers allows external users only access to a reverse proxy – everything else can’t be accessed.

Access to internal resources can be granted to certain users without creating new vulnerabilities.

Highest Information Security with Next Generation Firewall Network Protector 5.2
With the Next Generation Firewall NP series gateprotect offers a new product line for enterprises. The products of formerly Adyton Systems now gateprotect Leipzig GmbH ensure highest information security with the innovative approach of complete protocol validation in combination with application whitelisting in a single-pass engine.

At GITEX 2014 gateprotect will demonstrate version 5.2 of the innovative firewall. New features are rule based reporting and forensic traffic capture.

With the help of the rule-based reporting, IT managers can now display exactly the composition of the network traffic and the so-called "firewall success metrics". To block or to prioritize the access to certain content, administrators can define firewall policy rules.

The update also contains features that support network capture for forensic analysis. The detection is based on rules, that means the network, user and application traffic is treated differently by the firewall. The stored data can be used by the security for subsequent forensic investigations.
