UTM-1 Total Security appliances offer businesses the most comprehensive network protection and lowest total cost of ownership (TCO) available.

"Check Point UTM-1 Total Security appliances have shown strong adoption with businesses seeking powerful, out-of-the-box, all-inclusive network security solutions," said Juliette Sultan, head of global marketing at Check Point. "Our commitment is to continue providing customers with the most secure, easy to manage and cost-effective security solutions on the market with the widest range of solutions and models to best fit their unique needs."

Check Point UTM-1 Total Security appliances provide businesses a comprehensive security solution that combines firewall, virtual private network (VPN), intrusion prevention, SSL VPN, antivirus, anti-spyware, Web filtering, Web security, and anti-spam into one, centrally managed solution.

All UTM-1 Total Security appliances come with a three year hardware warranty. Also available are either one or three year Total Security service packages, which includes update services for SmartDefense® intrusion prevention, gateway antivirus, Web filtering and product software updates, as well as reduced support rates.

"Our Check Point UTM-1 Total Security appliance gives us the security we need without slowing down our network," said Dan Park, chief information officer at Advance Systems Group, Inc. "UTM-1 Total Security's ability to make major configuration changes and monitor traffic from a central location not only saves management time, but improves the quality of our network security."
