Complete Unified Threat Management
Firebox X Peak provides comprehensive security by integrating stateful packet firewall, VPN, true Zero Day attack prevention, gateway anti-virus, intrusion prevention, anti-spyware, anti-spam, and URL filtering into a single appliance, reducing the time and costs associated with managing multiple-point solutions.

True Zero Day Protection
The Intelligent Layered Security (ILS) in Firebox X Peak offers true Zero Day protection right out of the box. It protects against new and unknown threats before the vulnerability is discovered and the exploit is created and launched. Many vendors only provide signature-based protection that requires a separate license fee. These reactive solutions actually leave their customers exposed to new types of threats.

Granular Protection with Integrated Security Services
Each WatchGuard security service works cooperatively with the built-in Zero Day attack prevention of the Firebox X Peak for an unbeatable combination of security capabilities. These capabilities are fully integrated with the Firebox, so no additional hardware is required. Subscriptions are priced per appliance, not per user, so there are no escalating costs. All security services are continuously updated to give you up-to-the-minute protection, and are all centrally managed with WatchGuard System Manager (WSM) for real-time views of all service activities.

• spamBlocker - The best anti-spam service in the industry, blocking up to 97% of unwanted e-mails.
• Gateway AntiVirus/Intrusion Prevention Service with anti-spyware - Robust, signature-based protection at the gateway that stops known viruses, spyware, trojans, and Web-based exploits.
• WebBlocker - Blocks access to malicious Web content and manages your users' Web surfing to increase productivity and decrease security risks.
