Kerio Control brings together next-generation firewall capabilities -- including a network firewall and router, intrusion detection and prevention (IPS), gateway anti-virus, VPN, and web content and application filtering. These comprehensive capabilities and unmatched deployment flexibility make Kerio Control the ideal choice for small and mid-sized businesses. Protect your network from viruses, malware, and malicious activity with Kerio Control, the easy-to-administer yet powerful all-in-one security solution.

Features and Highlights

Next-Generation Firewall, Router, and Leading-Edge IPS
Preserve the integrity of your servers with deep packet inspection and advanced network routing capabilities -- including simultaneous IPv4 and IPv6 support. Create inbound and outbound traffic policies, restricting communication by specific URL, application, traffic type, content category, and time of day.

Advanced Gateway Antivirus
Keep viruses, worms, trojans, and spyware from infesting your network with integrated Kerio Antivirus. The optional antivirus service scans all web and FTP traffic, email attachments and downloads, automatically updating itself with the latest virus definitions.

Industry-Leading Web, Content and Application Filtering
Selectively block, allow, or log access to 141 categories of web content and applications using the app Web Filter with application awareness. Keep bandwidth-hogging traffic like streaming video off your network or block peer-to-peer networks. Keep your users from visiting malware sites that are known to contain viruses and spyware or to engage in phishing or identity theft.

Unmatched Quality of Service
Easily prioritize and monitor network traffic to guarantee high-speed transmission for the most important traffic types. Internet Link Load Balancing optimizes Internet access by distributing traffic across multiple links. The app monitors link availability and automatically disables or re-enables links to ensure continuous Internet access.

Productivity-Boosting Usage Reporting
Get detailed usage reporting with KerioControl Statistics. This component lets managers and admins view the Internet and application activities of individual users -- from a list of all sites visited, to the specific search terms users enter on search engines and websites.

Secure VPN
Link headquarters to remote users and branch offices securely and easily. Kerio’s own VPN tunneling with a dead-simple setup requires minimal configuration and provides a high-performance network connection. Or, use industry-standard IPsec/L2TP for connectivity from mobile devices or third-party firewalls. Enable 2-step verification for an extra layer of security on all forms of remote access.

Remote Management and Monitoring
Handle all administration and configuration activities from a customizable web-based console using your desktop or tablet. Quickly and securely access security settings, manage users and bandwidth, and set traffic policies from an intuitive interface.

Flexible Deployment
Bring secure operations to any IT environment, now and going forward. Deploy as a software appliance, a virtual machine, or a performance-optimized hardware appliance. Remote deployment of hardware appliances is easier and faster than ever before with self-provisioning through MyKerio.

Note: 30 days trial version.
