The SMA 1000 series is designed as an advanced secure access gateway for medium enterprises, multi-national corporations and managed security service providers (MSSPs). The series, which includes the SMA 6210, 7210 and 8200v, feature built-in multi-layer security to protect high-value corporate assets and enable users to work from anywhere and with any devices securely.
For mission-critical infrastructure, the addition of Central Management Server (CMS) for SMA provides business continuity with global traffic optimization, instant capacity upscaling, and dynamic allocation of pooled licenses.
CMS for SMA is also a powerful system that simplifies the management of global network of SMA 1000 clusters.
SonicWall SMA 1000 series provides anytime, anywhere and any device access to mission-critical corporate resources. It offers a granular access control policy engine, context-aware device authorization, application-level VPN and advanced authentication with single sign-on. The built-in Zero-Trust Access protects both user and high-value data from breaches, even in a multi-cloud environment.
EMPOWER REMOTE WORKFORCE AND MOBILITY
For organizations wishing to embrace BYOD, flexible working and securely enabling third-party access, the SMA 1000 series delivers a critical enforcement point. With best-in-class security, it minimizes threat surface, secures valuable corporate assets and ensures user confidentiality even in public hotspots. SMA empowers productivity in minutes. IT administrators can conveniently provision identity-based privileges to end-users, secure BYOD policies to protect their corporate networks and data from rogue access and malware.
INTEGRATED ADVANCED SECURITY WITH END-POINT COMPLIANCE (EPC) AND ADVANCED THREAT PROTECTION (ATP)
The SMA 1000 series offers centralized, granular, policy-based enforcement of remote and mobile access to corporate apps and data. SMA easily ensures consistent security policies across thousands of unmanaged devices in any locations.
The solution delivers a single web portal to authenticate users in a hybrid IT environment. In addition, support for modern multi-factor authentications comes standard. Whether the corporate resource is on-premises, on the web or in a hosted cloud, the access experience is consistent and seamless.
The installation of a VPN client comes with the Endpoint Control (EPC) engine. EPC ensures risks originating from users, endpoints or applications are evaluated before granting data access. Remediation actions, such as session quarantining and alerting, are enforced to minimize user frustration and reduce helpdesk calls.
Integration with the SonicWall Capture ATP, a cloud multi-engine sandbox, enables SMA to scan all files that users upload while outside the corporate network. The deep inspection of uploaded files ensures other users have the same level of protection from advanced threats (e.g., ransomware or zero-day malware) regardless of work locations.
SECURE ACCESS FROM UNMANAGED, PUBLIC AND BYOD DEVICES
The SMA 1000 series supports Zero-Trust Access via HTML5 web agents that are compatible with any browser. No VPN client is needed. Clientless or web-access is convenient because it provides instant support for any unmanaged devices.
