Blue Coat Announces ProxyAV 1200 Appliance
May 2010 by Emmanuelle Lamandé
Blue Coat Systems, Inc., expanded the Blue Coat® ProxyAV™ family of appliances with the Blue Coat Proxy AV1200 appliance that provides inline malware scanning at the Internet gateway.
The ProxyAV 1200 appliance scans all Web content, including file downloads from Web 2.0 sites with user authentication or credential tokens and provides a critical layer of defense in the Blue Coat Secure Web Gateway solution.
ProxyAV appliances work in tandem with Blue Coat ProxySG® appliances and support four leading anti-malware engines. As an inline scanning device, the ProxyAV appliance analyzes all file downloads from user-authenticated Web 2.0 sites, Web mail, file sharing and other methods of content delivery.
The Blue Coat ProxyAV appliances support four modes of content analysis, enabling organizations to optimize scanning on a per traffic type basis for more comprehensive protection against potential threats. Diverse traffic, such as audio and video, attachments and email, can be scanned with traditional object analysis, trickle first or last stream analysis and deferred scan analysis. For further protection against inbound threats, ProxyAV appliances can scan files up to 2 GB in size and analyze up to 99 layers of compressed archives.
Pricing and Availability
Blue Coat ProxyAV 1200 appliances are available immediately from Blue Coat Channel Advantage Partners worldwide. Pricing starts at $18,500.
