Panasonic BB-HGW700A Network Camera Management System with Router

Network setup is simple, as the camera management system automatically configures up to 16 Panasonic network cameras (IP address, port number, etc.), enables Internet access, creates a custom portal page and enables multi-level security control. A customized, flexible network for your computing environment is made possible by 802.11b/g wireless communication as well as four switched Ethernet connections. The system automatically configures the network connection for up to 128 computers or devices, and additional devices can be manually added.The camera management system's built-in firewall helps protect every network computer from hackers. Use the system with a Virtual Private Network (VPN) server to access a corporate or secure network. You can also customize the firewall to best suit the needs of your home or small business.The BB-HGW700A automatically adds the image from up to 16 cameras on a single web page which can be used from a local network or even the Internet. For easy access, just click a camera image on the camera portal page and that camera's individual screen will open allowing you to view and control that camera easily.

SonicWALL SSL-VPN 200 VPN Gateway

SonicWall SSL-VPN 200 Appliance
The SonicWALL SSL-VPN 200 provides small organizations with a simple, cost-effective alternative to traditional remote access products with one that requires no pre-installed client software.

Utilizing only a standard Web browser, users can easily and securely access e-mail, files, intranets, applications, remote desktops, servers and other resources on the corporate LAN from any location. Because there’s no need for a pre-installed or “fat” VPN client, you’re freed from the tasks of deploying, configuring and updating software, reducing maintenance and support costs. Additionally, granular access controls enable you to extend connectivity beyond your organization by providing trusted partners and customers with remote access to specific and defined resources. SonicWALL SSL-VPN solutions integrate seamlessly into virtually any network topology to deliver powerful, scalable and affordable remote access to corporate resources.

Seamless Integration Behind Virtually Any Firewall
The SSL-VPN 200 integrates seamlessly into any network topology and can be easily deployed alongside almost any third-party firewall as a secure remote access solution. This enables you to leverage your existing network infrastructure without the need to purchase additional hardware. The benefits don’t stop there, however. When deployed with a SonicWALL Internet security appliance running SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware and Intrusion Prevention Service, the SSL-VPN 200 enhances network integration and security. Deep packet inspection capabilities in the SonicWALL gateway decontaminate mobile user connections to prevent vulnerabilities and malicious code from being introduced into the corporate network.

Powerful SonicWALL NetExtender Technology
The SSL-VPN 200 makes remote access incredibly simple. Users require only a standard Web browser to launch a personalized Web portal that is unique to that person. From this portal, the user has access to e-mail, files, applications and internal Web sites. For more powerful capabilities such as seamless, secure access to any resource on the corporate network including servers and complex or home-grown applications, the appliance transparently pushes a downloadable thin client called NetExtender to the user's desktop or laptop.

Granular Policy Configuration Controls
Your organization includes remote users who require varying levels of access to resources on the corporate network. The SSL-VPN 200 extends secure remote access beyond remote offices and corporate controlled laptops out to network environments and remote computers that are not controlled and managed by the corporate IT department. Built-in granular access controls enable you to provide not only your employees, but also trusted contractors, partners and customers with remote access to specific and defined resources based on company policy.

Cisco PIX 506E

The Cisco PIX® 506E Security Appliance delivers enterprise-class security for remote office/branch office environments in a robust, purpose-built appliance. Ideal for securing Internet connections for remote/branch offices, the Cisco PIX 506E Security Appliance, which is part of the world-leading Cisco PIX Security Appliance Series, provides a wide range of rich integrated security capabilities and powerful remote management capabilities in a cost-effective, high-performance solution.

The Cisco PIX 506E Security Appliance delivers a multilayered defense for remote offices through rich security services including stateful inspection firewalling, protocol and application inspection, virtual private networking (VPN), in-line intrusion protection, and rich multimedia and voice security in a single device. The state-of-the-art Cisco Adaptive Security Algorithm (ASA) provides rich stateful inspection firewall services, tracking the state of all authorized network communications and preventing unauthorized network access.

Remote offices benefit from an additional layer of security via intelligent, 'application-aware' security services that examine packet streams at Layers 4-7, using inspection engines specialized for many of today's popular applications. Administrators can also easily create custom security policies for firewall traffic by using the flexible access control methods and the more than 100 predefined applications, services, and protocols that Cisco PIX Security Appliances provide.

Cisco PIX Security Appliances provide market-leading protection for a wide range of voice-over-IP (VoIP) and multimedia standards, allowing businesses to securely take advantage of the many benefits that converged data, voice, and video networks deliver. By combining VPN with the rich stateful inspection firewall services that Cisco PIX Security Appliances provide for these converged networking standards, businesses can securely extend voice and multimedia services to remote office environments for additional cost savings, improved productivity, and competitive advantage.

The Cisco PIX 506E provides several options for securing all network communications between mobile users, remote offices, and corporate networks over low-cost Internet connections. Solutions range from standards-based site-to-site VPN leveraging the Internet Key Exchange (IKE) and IP security (IPsec) VPN standards, to the innovative Easy VPN capabilities found in Cisco PIX Security Appliances and other Cisco security solutions—such as Cisco IOS® routers and Cisco VPN 3000 Series Concentrators. Easy VPN delivers a uniquely scalable, cost-effective, and easy-to-manage remote-access VPN architecture that eliminates the operational costs associated with maintaining remote-device configurations typically required by traditional VPN solutions. Cisco PIX Security Appliances encrypt data using 56-bit Data Encryption Standard (DES), 168-bit Triple DES (3DES), or up to 256-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption.

The integrated in-line intrusion-protection capabilities of the Cisco PIX 506E Security Appliance can protect remote office networks from many popular forms of attacks, including Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks and malformed packet attacks. Using a wealth of advanced intrusion-protection features, including DNSGuard, FloodGuard, FragGuard, MailGuard, IPVerify and TCP intercept, in addition to looking for more than 55 different attack 'signatures,' Cisco PIX Security Appliances keep a vigilant watch for attacks, can optionally block them, and can notify administrators about them in real time.

The Cisco PIX 506E Security Appliance is a reliable, easy-to-maintain platform that provides a wide variety of methods for configuring, monitoring, and troubleshooting it. Management solutions range from centralized policy-management tools to integrated, Web-based management to support for remote monitoring protocols such as Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and syslog.

Administrators can easily manage a large number of remote Cisco PIX Security Appliances using CiscoWorks VPN/Security Management Solution (VMS). This suite consists of numerous modules including Management Center for Firewalls, Auto Update Server Software, and Security Monitor. This powerful combination provides a highly scalable, next-generation, three-tier management solution that includes the following features:
