Network Box USA Edge Defense is a network security platform that combines Unified Threat Management (UTM), Secure Web Gateway (SWG), Secure SD-WAN, and Web Application Firewall (WAF) into a single integrated solution. UTM+: Consolidates major security technologies including firewall, intrusion prevention systems (IPS), and VPN into one platform. It blocks intrusion attempts, zero-day exploits, trojans, viruses, malware, spam, DoS, and ransomware at the network perimeter. Multi-layer inspection is applied to both incoming and outgoing traffic. Secure SD-WAN: Provides intelligent traffic routing between offices, data centers, and cloud services. Supports centralized policy management across distributed locations including HQ, branch, home, and mobile users. Integrated with the Edge Defense stack and aligned with SASE architecture for encrypted, zero-trust connectivity. Secure Web Gateway (SWG+): A next-generation managed firewall component that combines firewall, IPS, and VPN capabilities. Inspects HTTP and HTTPS traffic, blocks malware in files and URLs, and applies content filtering, policy enforcement, and application control. Web Application Firewall (WAF): Defends web servers and applications from application-layer attacks. Blocks exploits, injections, and vulnerabilities. Provides load-balanced, fault-tolerant infrastructure and multi-level firewall rules. Additional capabilities include: a global honeypot network with 70+ threat intelligence partners, anti-DDoS protection, SYN flooding and packet fragmentation defense, deep-packet inspection, automatic failover, link failure detection, and routing connectivity failure detection. The platform is available as fully cloud-based or on-premises. A 24/7 SOC provides managed patching and alert response. Compliance coverage includes ISO certifications, PCI DSS 3.2, and SSAE certification.
