- Real-time malware protection and proactive threat detection: The antivirus engine analyzes files and network traffic as they move through the Cloud Gateway, enabling immediate blocking of known threats and the ability to respond to emerging ones. This continuous inspection helps prevent ransomware, trojans, and other malware from traversing edge and cloud deployments, reducing exposure across your entire network footprint.

This is especially valuable for distributed environments that require consistent security across multiple locations.
- Low performance impact for seamless operation: Engineered for edge and cloud deployments, the solution delivers robust security without introducing noticeable latency or CPU overhead. You can maintain strong protection without sacrificing throughput or user experience at branch offices and remote sites.
- TAA compliant and procurement-ready: This offering is explicitly labeled as Trade Agreements Act (TAA) compliant, enabling use in government and regulated procurement environments while aligning with standard contract requirements and audit expectations.
