The Demilitarized Zone is an often overlooked area of network security for small to medium sized organisations due the price and complexity involved in establishing the services that usually reside within the security zone.

iWebGate's DMZ Server addresses this issue by providing a low cost, ready-to-use solution for the DMZ that can instantly protect the trusted network, significantly raise the security level ahead of the trusted network while still providing a level of simplicity of access for authorised remote users.

The DMZ Server compliments infrastructure currently used on both sides of the DMZ including the perimeter firewall and the private services and resources on the trusted network.
