Managing a strong defense against an ever changing and growing threat landscape with multiple security appliances can be challenging and complex.

SonicWall Comprehensive Gateway Security Suite (CGSS) makes selecting your security services easy and fast by integrating all the network security and service required for protection against known threats into a convenient, affordable package. CGSS is available on all physical and virtual firewalls including the NSa, TZ and NSv Series.

Features and benefits
CGSS keeps your network safe from viruses, intrusions, botnets, spyware, Trojans, worms and other malicious attacks. As soon as new threats are identified and often before software vendors can patch their software, SonicWall firewalls and Capture Cloud database are automatically updated with signatures that protect against these threats. Inside every SonicWall firewall is a patented Reassembly-Free Deep Packet Inspection engine that scans traffic against multiple application types and protocols, ensuring your network has around-the-clock protection from internal and external attacks and application vulnerabilities. It integrates everything for protection from known threats such as viruses, spyware, worms, trojans, adware, keyloggers, malicious mobile code (MMC) and other dangerous applications and web content.

ICSA-certified gateway antivirus and anti-spyware protection combines network-based anti-malware with a dynamically updated cloud database containing tens of millions of malware signatures for advanced modern threats continuously in real time. Dynamic spyware protection blocks the installation of malicious spyware and disrupts existing spyware communications.

Cutting-edge IPS technology protects against worms, trojans, software vulnerabilities and other intrusions by scanning all network traffic for malicious or anomalous patterns, thereby increasing network reliability and performance. SonicWall partners with over 50 research agencies and vendors including the Microsoft MAPP program to create IPS signatures for recently discovered vulnerabilities. This is one way SonicWall protected customers against the WannaCry attack, three weeks in advance.

Application intelligence and control is a set of granular, applicationspecific policies providing application classification and policy enforcement to help administrators control and manage both business and non-business related applications.

Content Filtering Service (CFS) addresses safety, security and productivity concerns by providing the controls to enforce Internet use policies and block access to harmful and unproductive web content.

Website ratings cached locally on SonicWall firewalls make response time to frequently visited sites virtually instantaneous. Dynamically updated rating architecture cross-references all requested websites against a database in the cloud containing millions of URLs, IP addresses and domains and then compares each rating to the local policy setting.

Extend security and productivity by enforcing Internet use policies on endpoint devices located outside the firewall perimeter with the SonicWall Content Filtering Client. Available as a separate subscription service for Windows, Mac OS and Chrome endpoints.

Capture Security Center (CSC) delivers unified management, analytics and reporting for network, web, endpoint, email and cloud security through a single pane of glass. It enhances visibility, agility and capacity to help you govern your entire SonicWall security ecosystem with greater clarity, precision and speed - all from one simple cloud interface.

CSC Zero-Touch Deployment enables administrators to have pre-configured firewalls shipped to their remote sites with minimal interaction required to start up and manage the device.

CSC 7-day Reporting gives comprehensive security and operational KPIs for doing proactive security strategizing and planning. This includes network events, user activities, threat, operation and performance metrics, compliance and audit readiness and postmortem analysis.
