The NETGEAR STM combines best-of-breed security features & patent-pending Stream Scanning technology, providing SMBs with comprehensive, effective, yet simple, & affordable web & email protection against ever growing Internet-based threats. Malware, spyware, worms, spam, & phishing attacks, are all propagated through web & email protocols & are becoming more creative & sophisticated, making use of multiple components to attack clients under increasingly stealthy guises. Todays web & email threats blend multiple malware & multiple attack vectors to achieve criminal intent. Such attacks are used en masse to disable or steal computing resources & information. Moreover, such attacks accomplish these aims piggybacking on not only email traffic, but also increasingly through real-time web traffic
- a historically difficult application to protect because of its low-latency requirements. Information security threats pose serious dangers to both enterprises & SMBs alike
- consequently, SMBs require the same level of security protection that enterprises enjoy. However, security products aimed at the SMB often either employ watered down commercial anti-malware engines or use open source engines. These engines contain a limited signature database, weak detection algorithms, have slow response times to new threats, & are not optimized for real-time web traffic. Enterprise-class technologies differ from cheaper alternate solutions by protecting the entire spectrum of a particular threat vector as opposed to covering only a small subset of it. However, these technologies are often times processor intensive & require expensive hardware to run effectively. At the core of the STM is NETGEAR patent-pending web-optimized stream scanning architecture. NETGEAR STM Stream Scanning technology allows the use of enterprise-class technologies while maintaining high throughput. NETGEAR has partnered with industry-leading Kaspersky Lab & Commtouch to bring best-of-breed web & email scanning technology engines to the STM platform. Running on top of the stream scanning platform, these engines work in parallel with the NETGEAR heuristics engine to protect against known & unknown threats. This bundle
