SUMMARY:Basic Hosted Firewall
DESCRIPTION:Lead by the MERLIN technical team; this session will be a “deep dive” on how to fully utilize the firewall options available to clients.  Strengthen your use of this important security tool before the 26/27 school year begins! \nBased on a Palo Alto Networks firewall and currently serves 34 educational organizations. It includes all the protection of MERLIN’s vulnerability protection service and provides the following additional benefits: \n\nLayer 7 next-generation firewall technology which provides application visibility. Clients can identify and classify application traffic from applications such as Facebook\, YouTube\, Dropbox\, iTunes\, X (formerly known as Twitter)\, FaceTime\, Pinterest\, Instagram\, BitTorrent\, and Netflix.\nUser identification through the firewall’s User ID functionality. This connects to a division’s user directory and provides the ability to apply application control rules to the appropriate users and groups.\nApplication control by user or group which provides flexibility on how\, when\, and to what destinations they are allowed. Applications can be blocked\, allowed\, or limited based on the application’s category and the educational need.\nVisibility of internal device addresses which increases the client’s ability to track down and identify the source of malicious traffic and unwanted applications.\nContent filtering by user or group allows for multiple unique content filtering profiles within a single school or site.\nSecure VPN with MFA access to internal systems for staff.\nAdvanced vulnerability\, anti-virus\, and spyware protection\n\nContact us for more information. \nRegistration closes Wednesday\, July 8 at 12 noon.
