HiSecOS 3.0 now offers enhanced security features for customers using EAGLE20/30 firewalls, including Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) and firewall learning mode. The flexibility of the EAGLE20/30 firewalls continues to enable numerous configuration options, eliminating the need for multiple devices and saving customers space and costs.
According to Vinod Rana, product manager at Hirschmann: "The EAGLE20/30 firewalls offer advanced, unrivaled multiport appliances that combine more security features into a flexible solution. With HiSecOS 3.0, users can customize firewall rules at the touch of a button using the firewall's learning mode, ensuring seamless operation. The single-device firewall solution combines DPI-based security with the redundancy and flexibility of its client-specific network interfaces."
The EAGLE20/30 family is specially adapted to system integrators, engineers and plant operators who are looking for a single-device solution to secure their network, reduce network risks and maximize uptime.
Rana states the following: "Industrial firewalls, coupled with HiSecOS 3.0, not only allow different types of packets to pass through the network but also delve into the packet itself thanks to the new DPI function, observe what it is expected to observe and, based on the configured rules, allow the packet to pass or discard it."
The multiport firewall integrates on demand with various configuration options for up to eight ports, including Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, and Symmetrical High-Speed Digital Subscriber Line (SHDSL).
In 2016, Belden will add LTE(4G)/3G mobile interfaces to the EAGLE20/30 to allow the customer to reduce wired or wireless connections.
