Aker Firewall SolutionAker: Mission Critical Firewall with Traffic Shaping, Load balancing and Fail overAker is part of the IT-Sentinel set of network protection and management solutions developed by IT Synergy. It is a complete firewall, traffic monitoring and management system that includes traffic shaping, failover, load balancing and intrusion detection system which can be tailored to suit your network, regardless of its size. Aker is a solution that brings network monitoring from the computer rooms right to the desk of decision makers interested in gathering details on how their company network is used. Like the ancient Egyptian god Aker, that was said to guard the entrance and exit to the underworld, opening them for the sun to pass through during the night and to cancel the cause of death extracting the poison from snakes and scorpion bites, our solution will monitor, classify and filter each individual packet going in and out from your network. Completely stable and transparent, it is built on a secure base using the most reliable hardware available and powerful application developed by the same team who develop the most secure Unix-based operating system available today, that will fulfill any need you might have in your network. Not only providing security and flexibility, Aker also allows you to monitor and manage the traffic passing through it, pinpointing bandwidth bottlenecks, possible problematic hosts, the traffic direction, all protocols used and finally mapping the complete network, both for local and remote hosts. By allowing to fine tuning the restriction of undesirable ports and protocols, you are able to secure your network so that no malicious user or outside vandal could harm your servers and desktops. Furthermore, the lower priority or complete restriction of traffic which can be deemed undesirable, such as P2P or games, can increase the overall bandwidth improving your overall Internet performance. Thanks to the intrusion prevention system, any suspicious traffic might can be set to be automatically blocked and the person in charge alerted, providing 24-hour protection of the critical parts of your business and assets. Traffic shaping allows you to define the prioritisation and bandwidth allocation for each protocols such as VoIP, HTPP, FTP, etc. and even specific applications. This will give you the ability to define a higher priority to critical protocols, such as those used for VoIP, in order to give a crystal clear quality, while lowering that of those that are not critical, such as web browsing or downloading emails. In this way, you will always have the bandwidth needed, no matter what other user may be doing at the same time. For the ultimate physical security and reliability, Aker can be configured as a diskless network appliance with the operating system, configuration and logs stored on a USB memory stick or a CD, so that if anything happens, a reboot is all that is needed to be running back up again.
