Zyxel teams with Avira on threat detection

Cloudbox API from Avira OEM, part of NortonLifeLock’s offerings now integrates with Zyxel’s Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) firewalls.

Users will benefit from sandboxing architecture, which enables better detection rates and faster response times to zero-day attacks.

Alongside sandbox enhancements, users of Zyxel’s ATP firewalls will be able to take advantage of a continuous stream of up-to-the-minute threat intelligence insights, identified by other ATP firewalls worldwide. In addition to receiving regular updates of newly flagged signatures from trusted sources, access to this extensive threat database will ensure that users have a comprehensive solution to safeguard their network and business assets from evolving threats.

“Businesses understand that the threat landscape is constantly evolving and that it’s important to have measures in place that can keep up. With the integration of Avira’s Cloud Sandbox service, part of NortonLifeLock, we are able to provide an enhanced comprehensive sandboxing solution aimed specifically at the SMB market, to provide them with peace of mind that they are protected from both known and unknown threats,” said Mr. Nathan Yen, AVP of Zyxel’s Gateway Business Unit.

The new Zyxel service is available to ATP Firewall customers in the Gold Security Pack license bundle. Users who have already purchased the license will automatically be upgraded to the new Zyxel service with no additional action and expense needed.
