QNAP Systems, Inc., a leading computing, networking, and storage solutions innovator, announced that its high-speed QHora series routers — QHora-301W, QHora-322, and QHora-321 — will support Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) functionality in firmware version 2.6.0.
The feature is currently license-free, enabling businesses to strengthen their first line of defense against ransomware attacks simply by enabling the QuWAN SD-WAN service.
The QHora series integrates 2.5GbE and 10GbE high-speed networking with IPS signature-based detection and real-time blocking. With an automatically updated threat database, QHora routers promptly intercept viruses, trojans, and intrusion attempts, providing proactive protection to help organizations combat increasingly sophisticated cyber threats.
«Many SMBs face challenges adopting advanced security measures due to licensing costs,» said Chun-Yu Chen, Product Manager of QNAP, adding «By introducing IPS to the QHora series without licensing barriers, we aim to help businesses cost-effectively strengthen their perimeter network security.»
