Brief organization profile:
Based on intelligent data correlation analysis and advanced threat
detection, Hillstone Networks Next Generation Firewall Solutions for
the Enterprise and Data Center discover abnormal traffic behaviors that
identify next generation threats and slash risk before there’s any business
damage. Built from the ground up for today’s virtual, cloud-based data
centers, our high-performance, fully distributed firewall platform
overcomes performance and deployment limitations of legacy firewalls
in a virtual environment.
Hillstone doesn’t rely solely on attack signatures, thresholds, and
updates. It adds sophisticated abnormal traffic behavior analysis,
security and traffic data correlation, big data analytics, and deep
application awareness to discover and address abnormal attack related
behavior--and stay one step ahead of the most sophisticated attacks and
their perpetrators.
Established in 2006 by NetScreen, Cisco and Juniper executives, over
5,000 customers worldwide rely on our proven high performance
network security solutions, including Fortune 500 companies, higher
