mGuard blade slide-in modules, is controlled by a monitoring unit.
Dedicated end point security
In general, conventional rewalls are used to secure entire networks or network segments with a uniform security standard. However, systems or machines that are
critical for a company often require their own level of
security. Thus, the mGuard blades can be used to assign
to a company-critical system or network segment its own
individually-con gured security component.

Every mGuard blade slide-in module in the robust metal
housing represents a dedicated security appliance, which
can optionally be combined in pairs to form a hot standby
system. In addition, all mGuard blades are hot swapcapable and can be replaced and automatically recongured during operation.
