Add Proven WatchGuard® Security to Avaya® VoIP Solutions

VoIP networks face the same security threats challenging all networks today. Without strong network security, companies can lose data, time, and money at the hands of a hacker. In VoIP networks, that means listening in on phone conversations, stealing private company information, and accessing the network to make long distance calls.

To secure voice traffic through the Internet, first add a firewall between each endpoint, such as a main office network and remote office network. Then, establish a VPN tunnel between the endpoints so all voice traffic is protected.

Scalable Solutions for Growing Businesses

WatchGuard® offers a full range of Avaya-compliant Internet security solutions that meet the growing needs of small- to mid-sized businesses.

For the main office and central network, WatchGuard offers Firebox X, the first fully model-upgradeable integrated firewall. Firebox® X also includes VPN tunnels and additional security options deployed and managed on a single appliance.

Sell your customers the Firebox X model that best fits their needs today. When their business grows or their security needs change, they can purchase license keys to increase throughput, the number of VPN tunnels, or add additional services. Upgrading a single appliance makes it easy to keep up with these changes without having to over-buy for the future.

Small or remote offices connecting to the main office can protect their VPN traffic with the Firebox® SOHO 6tc. Firebox SOHO 6tc integrates perfectly with the Firebox X line of firewall/VPN appliances to provide complete security for geographically distributed organizations.

Mobile users running VoIP technology on their laptops can create secure mobile connections using WatchGuard's Mobile User VPN (MUVPN) client software. This allows mobile users to create VPN tunnels into the main office, keeping their connections secure wherever they may be.
