The Sonic Wall Super Massive Series is designed for large networks to deliver scalability, reliability & deep security at multi-gigabit speeds with near zero latency. Built to meet the needs of enterprise, government, university, and service provider deployments, the Super Massive Series is ideal for securing enterprise networks, data centers & service providers. Combining its massively multi-core architecture & Sonic Wall's patented Reassembly-Free Deep Packet Inspection (RFDPI) technology, the Super Massive E Series deliver industry-leading application control, intrusion prevention, malware protection & SSL inspection at multigigabit speeds. The Super Massive Series is designed with power, space, and cooling (PSC) in mind, providing the leading Gbps/ Watt NGFW in the industry for application control & threat prevention. The Sonic Wall RFDPI engine scans every byte of every packet across all ports, delivering full content inspection of the entire stream while providing high performance & low latency. This technology is superior to outdated proxy designs that reassemble content using sockets bolted to antimalware programs that are plagued with inefficiencies & overhead of socket memory thrashing that leads to high latency, low performance & file size limitations. The RFDPI engine delivers full content inspection to eliminate threats before they enter the network & provides protection against millions of unique malware variants without file size, performance or latency limitations. The RFDPI engine also provides full inspection of SSL-encrypted traffic as well as non-proxyable applications enabling complete protection regardless of transport or protocol. Application traffic analytics allow for the identification of productive & unproductive application traffic in real time which can then be controlled through powerful application-level policies. Application control can be exercised on both a per-user & pergroup basis, along with schedules & exception lists. All application, intrusion prevention, and malware signatures are constantly updated by the Sonic Wall Threats Research Team. in addition, Sonic OS, an advanced purpose-built operating system, provides integrated tools that allow for custom application identification & control. The design of the Super Massive Series firewalls provides near-linear performance & scales up to 96 cores of processing power to deliver up to 40 Gbps of firewall throughput, 30 Gbps of threat prevention & 30 Gbps of application inspection & control.
