SonicWall Network Security Virtual (NSV) 870 Virtual Appliance
Deep security for public, private or hybrid cloud environments

The SonicWall Network Security virtual NSv 270/470/870 firewalls, deliver enterprise-class security, streamlined management, complete visibility, flexible deployment, while delivering superior performance for virtual workloads

Vulnerabilities within virtual environments are discovered regularly that yield serious security implications and challenges. But protecting all these security vectors requires the ability to also consistently apply the right security policy to the right network control point, as some security failures can be attributed to ineffective policies or misconfigurations.

NSv firewall series help security teams reduce these types of security risks and vulnerabilities, which can cause serious disruption to business-critical services and operations. It enables enterprises to control dynamic traffic passing through a firewall and provides visibility and insight into disparate policies. It help simplify management tasks, reduce configuration errors and speed up deployment time, all of which contribute to a better overall security posture.

SonicOSX and Security Services

The SonicOSX architecture is at the core of NSv 240/470/870 firewalls. It is powered by the feature rich SonicOSX 7.0 operating system with new modern looking UX/UI, advanced security, networking and management capabilities.

7.0 features Unified Policy that offers integrated management of various security policies. Easily provision layer 3 to layer 7 controls in a single rule base on every firewall, providing a centralized location for configuring policies. The new web interface presents meaningful visualizations of threat information, and displays actionable alerts prompting you to configure contextual security policies with point-and-click simplicity.

NSv further integrates SD-WAN, TLS 1.3 support, real-time visualization, high-speed virtual private networking (VPN) and other robust security features. Unknown threats are sent to SonicWall’s cloud-based Capture Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) multiengine sandbox for analysis. Enhancing Capture ATP is our patent-pending Real-Time Deep Memory Inspection (RTDMI™) technology. As one of Capture ATP’s engine, RTDMI detects and blocks malware and zero-day threats by inspecting directly in memory.

By leveraging Capture ATP with RTDMI technology, in addition to security advanced services, NSv series firewalls stop malware, ransomware and other advanced threats at the gateway.
