 "Kaspersky Lab Expands Partnership With Juniper Networks")
Kaspersky Lab, a developer of secure content management solutions, has announced that its anti-virus technologies have been integrated into Juniper Networks SRX Series Services Gateways and J Series Services Routers.
The anti-virus filter is an essential component of any network protection system. The decisive factors in the selection of Kaspersky Lab were the company’s experience as a supplier of licenced anti-virus technologies, a good service record, reliable protection and ease of integration.
The Kaspersky Lab anti-virus technologies integrated into the SRX Series Services Gateways and J Series Services Routers provide protection against all types of malware, such as viruses, Trojans, worms and rootkits. The embedded solution scans files of various formats, including those that pose ongoing threats.
Implemented as a component of Juniper’s Unified Threat Management (UTM) technology, the Kaspersky Lab anti-virus solutions are available in two versions – Full AV (the full-fledged anti-virus solution) and Juniper Networks ExpressAV (anti-virus protection with SafeStream data-flow scanning technology, better suited for high-speed, low-latency networking devices).
“As a partner with Kaspersky since 2004, we are excited about the recent integration of the Kaspersky Lab anti-virus technologies into the Juniper SRX Series Services Gateways and J Series Services Routers. With Juniper’s new ExpressAV for low-latency, real-time, Web-based transactions, customers now receive a more comprehensive threat management solution,” says Sanjay Kalra, senior director, Branch Solutions Business Unit, Juniper Networks.
“The continued increase in malicious code propagation demands that enterprises provide the highest level of protection to secure all endpoints. The integration of Kaspersky Lab’s anti-virus technologies into the Juniper SRX Series Services Gateways and J Series Services Routers will create a deeper level of protection for enterprise customers,” says Petr Merkulov, vice president-Technology Alliances Division, Kaspersky Lab.
