WatchGuard’s XTM 8 and XTM 1050 security solutions challenge traditional unified threat-management (UTM) suppliers, as they update the UTM concept to cope with today’s changing security scenario. XTM (eXtensible threat management) is a new class of security solution that provides more security features, greater networking capabilities and more management flexibility than its UTM predecessor, as well as greater IT investment protection, increased green credentials and improved choice. WatchGuard XTM builds on the IDC-defined UTM foundation of integrated firewall/VPN with virus and intrusion blocking, but extends security to provide spam blocking, spyware and bot protection, and URL filtering. It also includes enhanced support for business technologies, such as voice over IP, and offers inbound and outbound HTTPS inspection to increase content-security coverage and close the HTTPS loophole.
