The need for network security exists not only in enterprise data centers. It also exists in telecom data center, machine to machine (M2M) network, industrial applications and small office/home office (SOHO) network. Any device with network connectivity could become a potential entry point for cyber attack and must be protected as well. Under these premises, NEXCOM has released new network security hardware aimed at different application needs of the telecommunication, industrial control and high-throughput industries. The design of the next generation network security platforms reflect the trend of “Internet everywhere” in addition to focusing on network traffic generated by data access. The platforms must go into telecom data center on account of surging mobile network traffic. They also have to give thorough thought to different network environments including ZigBee, Wi-Fi and industrial network using EtherCAT protocol to ensure security for M2M and industrial networks.
