Overview - EdgeWall Express

The Vernier EdgeWall Express is a powerful, compact network security solution that combines the features of a Vernier Control Server and a Vernier EdgeWall in a single rack-mountable appliance. The EdgeWall Express enables security administrators to create and manage network access management policies, and enforce those policies throughout a remote office or small business.

Complete Network Protection
The EdgeWall Express provides network access management for remote office wired and wireless networks.

Dynamic and Granular Network Access Management
The EdgeWall Express offers a simple to use administrative interface to create and modify security, access, connection and user policies for network access control. These policies are dynamically applied based on an array of parameters including user identity, user location, threat levels, patch levels and vulnerability levels. As parameters change in real-time, the access policies may also change in real-time. The EdgeWall Express integrates with, and enhances, existing enterprise authentication systems. Its unique granular access control secures an individual user, not a network-defined entity (e.g. IP address, subnet, VLAN, etc.). This enables the fine-grain monitoring, quarantining and blocking of suspicious or untrusted users.

Deep Packet Filtering and Inspection
Employing a powerful packet inspection engine, the EdgeWall Express can look deep inside packets to determine the presence of worms or viruses contents. EdgeWalls can also rewrite, redirect or discard client data traffic. The EdgeWall Express can also rewrite, redirect or discard client data traffic. For example, suspect packets can be redirected to a quarantine area for further scrutiny while still allowing legitimate traffic to flow normally. This intelligent packet inspection ensures only the traffic designated by that user's access privileges actually flow through the network.

Network-wide Policy Enforcement
The EdgeWall Express detects worms and viruses in real-time, and prevents their propagation to other devices on the network. It also blocks Denial of Service (DoS) traffic, while allowing valid traffic from authenticated users to flow normally. Additionally, the EdgeWall Express provides tools to identify infected devices, quarantine those contaminated devices, patch and cleanup dirty devices, as well as the devices re-admission to the network.

Complete Network Coverage
EdgeWall supports an entire organization’s network applications requirements ranging from wired, directly connected laptops/desktops, to wireless employees, guests and contractors, to remote users and branch office users.
