Managed Firewall - Support Level 1
With any Optinium Managed Firewall service, our highly trained, firewall administrators will monitor, manage and maintain your firewalls, so you don’t have to. This managed firewall delivers a cost-effective means of ensuring that your company’s network perimeter is always kept secure.Managed Firewall - Support Level 2
In addition to the Support Level 1 features, with the Support Level 2 we will provide you with a secure Site to Site VPN, Load Balancing and Traffic Shaping.Managed Firewall - Support Level 3
In addition to the Support Level 1 and 2 features, with Support Level 3 service firewall logs are sent into the Optinium SIEM platform for proactive monitoring of unusual trends in activity. Through our 24/7 NOC, we will alert you of potential security incidents that we identify. Our centralised correlation and reporting logic will bring security issues to your attention, without the requirements for you to run your own SIEM implementation.Optional Out-Of-Band Access
For an additional £29.99/mth ex VAT we can install a 3G access point and manage your firewall over a secure encrypted connection completely externally from your existing network. This increases availability by allowing us to connect even if you are experiencing network problems.Cold/Hot Standby Firewall
We can provide additional firewalls for high availability to be used in the event that your main firewall suffers a hardware failure.Site to Site VPN

Your data is encrypted as it uses a secure virtual tunnel as it passes through the internet. No additional software is required, as the firewall itself manages the VPN between sites.
Implementing a VPN would otherwise require third party software or dedicated VPN hardware and require considerable outlay in IT resources.
Traffic Shaping

If you have ever experienced dropouts in your VOIP calls then you could have simply used all your available bandwidth from your ISP. The problem is not just limited to VOIP calls, without a traffic shaping policy, network traffic which exceeds your current available bandwidth will be indiscriminately dropped. This can often result in loss of service and yet can easily be avoided. A managed firewall service is capable of shaping your traffic so that primary services are given a reserved bandwidth amount, leaving any remaining bandwidth free for secondary services. Different groups of users can also be given higher priorities ensuring that those who need it always have bandwidth available.
Load Balancing

In the event of a loss of service from one of your ISPs, the firewall will handle the problem and route all traffic over the remaining connection.
