Agnitum Outpost Network Security
Personal Firewall with centralized management for companies.

Outpost Network Security proactively protects small and medium-sized businesses from inbound and outbound threats, safeguarding the network and keeping workstations healthy. With its award-winning firewall and powerful anti-spyware, Outpost provides easy-to-use, affordable, and reliable protection for company data. Plus, the centralized management and automatically-deployed configurations deliver greater protection in less time.

Key Benefits:

Client Anti-Spyware

Proactive protection prevents zero-day infections
Outpost makes sure no spyware can enter the network with its multi-point defenses. The live monitor prevents spyware from activating on workstations and automatically removes any trace of spyware to restore workstations to full operational health. The on-demand scanner runs quick or in-depth spyware checks according to your schedule to ensure workstations stay spyware-free.

Managed Firewall

Powerful firewall protection against multiple threats
Encompassing a robust intrusion detection system, packet- and application-level filtering, embedded code protection tools and unique Ethernet data security, Outpost Network Security is the ultimate deterrent against all manner of Internet-borne attacks and intrusions. Advanced connection rules and custom configurations provide the most flexible protection available today.

Information Theft Prevention

Make sure confidential information never leaves the workstation
Outpost’s unique information protection capability lets users define character strings – like bank account numbers or insurance policy information – and lock that information down so that it can never be transmitted off the workstation.

Effortless Administration

Centralized management and deployment minimizes IT workload
Outpost Network Security protection can be rolled out to all or selected workstations in no time, and event logs filtered and reviewed centrally. Group policy management gives administrators the flexibility to assign specific configurations to selected groups of users, depending on vulnerability, and those configurations can be changed at any time without requiring workstation reboots.

Fast and Easy Updates

Centrally-managed and automatically deployed for up-to-date protection
The Agnitum Update Service lets administrators download a single client network security update package and install it across multiple workstations, cutting down on bandwidth and administrator time. Daily updates of spyware signatures ensures endpoints stay current with the latest protection.

Outpost Network Security Features

Outpost Network Security (ONS) 2.0 is a comprehensive security solution designed to provide centralized, easy-to-manage protection for small and medium-sized businesses and branch offices against the latest intrusion threats and malware attacks. ONS provides proactive endpoint protection against inbound attacks and outbound information leaks in conjunction with powerful anti-spyware defenses to deliver high levels of protection for business operations with limited IT resources.

Outpost Network Security functionality includes:

• proactive (blocking) and reactive (signature scanning) anti-spyware
• stateful bidirectional firewall
• centrally-managed event deployment, management and updates
• customizable settings for different user groups within the organization

Outpost Network Security can be deployed across the network to all or selected workstations and managed from the central administrator’s console. Automated, always-on protection ensures employee computers stay secure and operating smoothly, while the centralized administration keeps IT demands overheads at a minimum.

Security and Privacy

• Always up-to-date, automated spyware protection prevents infection and keeps machines running smoothly: the active monitor blocks new infections, while the on-demand scanner removes any traces of existing infections.
• Targeted data protection prevents confidential corporate information from ever being sent off an Outpost-protected workstation.
• Client firewall starts protecting endpoints as soon as it is installed by continuously monitoring all data traffic and automatically dropping unauthorized connections.
• Client machines are rendered invisible on the Internet so hackers cannot ‘see’ and exploit them.
• The Attack Detection module prevents known and unknown attacks on protected workstations, optionally alerting the client.
• Unique Ethernet defense prevents internal network tampering and blocks client-based attempts to disrupt or disable wired or wireless network communication.
• Administrator-assigned application rules govern client machines’ Internet access policies.
• Embedded code defense mechanisms prevent malicious applications from activating under the guise of a trusted application, protecting clients from advanced application injection and spoofing techniques.
• Active web content module blocks installation and activation of malicious self-starting code within the browser.
• Attachment quarantine stops suspect email attachments from activating, preventing network-wide virus and worm propagation.
• Privacy enhancement restricts tracking of end-users’ surfing history.
• Content controls enable administrators to define lists of keywords and URLs employees are not permitted to access.

Control and Manageability

• Centralized deployment, management and updating provide trouble-free, automated protection and low IT overheads.
• Support for user groups enables different configurations and access policies to be deployed to different users depending on their degree of vulnerability
• Automated spyware and firewall protection keeps client machines functioning smoothly and keeps users productive.
• Firewall presets for commonly-used applications and network-specific communications ease the initial access configuration definitions.

Cost-Efficient Solution

• Combining anti-spyware with a software firewall delivers comprehensive proactive security for the price of a point solution
• Trickle-down updating saves on bandwidth and PC resources.
• ONS is effective right out of the box, with no training or special knowledge required
