In the most basic form, Unified Threat Management (UTM) is a firewall, VPN, IDP and anti-virus working together against any known threat or in the case of heuristics, unknown threats.
Find out more in our article UTM Plus.
The reason that some of these elements are used together as a blended defence is so that they can defend against blended threats that sometimes cannot be stopped by using, for example, just Anti Virus.
The advantages of performance, convenience and cost make UTMs the obvious choice for gateway defence. Using the best of breed technology to protect against all Internet threats including viruses, trojans, phishing, spyware and hacking ensures that the customer benefits from a comprehensive service developed and delivered by experts.

"We’ve been thoroughly impressed with Network Box and would recommend it to any organisation that is wasting lots of money and time running lots of different security solutions."
Christian Turner IT Security Officer
28th Jul 10
June saw the UK become the fourth largest producer of spam in the world, and it is now also the fourth largest producer of viruses, according to July threat statistics from managed security company, Network Box.
The number one virus producer remains the US, which has increased production by around one per cent (to 14.6 per cent). But India’s slight increase in production (from 9.2 to 9.5 per cent) was enough to move it to number two in the charts and see Korea drop to third place, with a decline in production of more than three per cent.
