Why USG Flex Series is the Perfect Fit for Small and Mid-Sized Businesses?
Did you know simply deploying a firewall will not guarantee safety while untrusted devices, users, and applications are accessed widely? Zyxel Networks latest USG FLEX Series provides one single management platform on the cloud while strengthening the protection from firewalls to access points with automatic responses. And that’s not all, the newly designed platform minimizes computing power usage while maximizing firewall performance delivering up to 5x UTM performance with cloud flexibility and collaborative protection helping small to mid-sized businesses secure connection safely.

Benefits

  1. Zero-Trust Network Security
    Zyxel's Nebula's revolutionary solution (secure cloud networking platform) brings a Zero-Trust Network Security granular policy to organizations with access authentications and secured WiFi.
  2. Higher Precision Detection
    The cloud query with a high detection rate helps verify the file hash within seconds.
  3. Increased Accuracy in Threat Detection
    Web Filtering is also included to safeguard all internet access, especially with CTIRU (Counter-Terrorism Internet Referral Unit) to restrict access to terrorist materials online.
  4. Multi-Layer Protection
    Zyxel offers a leading-industry DNS content filter, eliminating blind spots in all encrypted traffic with TLS 1.3 without the need to deploy SSL inspection.
  5. Flexible Licensing
    Optimized licensing management platform and a consistent migration path between on-premises and our cloud platform.

Features

  1. Collaborative Detection & Response (CDR)
    Collaborative Detection & Response (CDR) is used to identify threats and risks posed in the more complex organization workforce, workload, and workplace.
  2. Plug-n-Play Option
    Zyxel's new Secure WiFi feature gives you the ability to create a “drop-in” Access Point that can be configured to replicate the SSID of your office and automatically create a secure tunnel. This simplifies the deployment by creating a plug-n-play option.
  3. Google Authentication
    Google Authentication allows your organizations to authenticate the identities of users accessing your networks through remote desktops and personal mobile devices.
  4. DNS Content Filter
    A newly added DNS content filter offers a better approach to inspect web access, particularly when the website is deploying ESNI (Encrypted Server Name Indication) where the traditional URL filtering is not applicable to the destination domain.
  5. Analytics Report
    USG FLEX series dashboard gives user-friendly traffic summary and threat statistic visuals.
  6. Only Pay What You Need
    ZyWALL USG FLEX series supports hospitality features including Hotspot and concurrent device upgrade. You can buy a time-based bundle, so only pay what you need.
