A new network security appliance has been unveiled by a technology manufacturer.
Fortinet has announced its new FortiGate-620B multi-threat security device, which is expandable to a maximum of 24 ports and can offer internal network security segmentation for enterprise companies or data centres.
SC Magazine reports that the FortiGate-620B has a 16-gigabytes-per-second firewall and virtual private network throughout, which the company claims is a new performance record for products in its class.
The device also features a number of security functions including, spyware prevention, web content filtering, anti-spam and four other "core" applications.
Michale Xie, co-founder at Fortinet, told the site: "The increased popularity of gigabit-switching infrastructures and growing network size are fuelling the need for internal network segmentation points with gigabit-per-second links, and these requirements are extending beyond traditional high-end enterprises."
HardwareZone.com recently reported that D-Link International had added a new network storage enclosure to its range, which it claims is secure and easy-to-install.
