How It Works
The MegaPath Managed Firewall has an ASIC-based architecture that uses deep packet inspection to stop connection and fragmented attacks. This chip works at wireline speed inspecting both networking information (packet headers) and application information (payloads) to detect and block suspicious traffic.
Based on corporate security policies, the Managed Firewall filters inbound and outbound network traffic by implementing a series of rules that allow or deny traffic to pass through the network. In addition to packet filtering, the firewall tracks the sequence of events during ongoing connections to detect violations of normal processes and protect against floods, port scans, denial of service and other network attacks.
