Zyxel Networks has recently launched a new series of network security solutions called Zyxel USGFLEX Ultimate H, designed specifically for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). Using artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud technologies, these solutions offer advanced protection against network threats, helping SMBs comply with necessary security regulations.

By integrating features such as content filtering and sandboxing, as well as ensuring compliance with regulations such as NIS2, Zyxel ensures that SMEs are better equipped to deal with cyberattacks. Its practical and affordable approach allows businesses of all sizes to access robust protection, vital in an ever-evolving digital environment.

The innovations introduced in this series not only improve the ability to respond to cyber attacks, but also reinforce the importance of a proactive approach to security management. This commitment of the company to the research and development of cybersecurity solutions translates into a more secure and efficient offering for small and medium-sized businesses.

Innovations in Network Protection for SMEs

The Zyxel USGFLEX Ultimate H series represents a significant advancement in network security for SMBs, using cloud intelligence to quickly identify and respond to emerging threats. These innovations allow companies to address new and unknown dangers in a matter of seconds. Additionally, the series supports a full suite of Zyxel unified threat management (UTM) services, including web filtering capabilities, application patrols, and malware protection.

The combination of these technologies allows SMEs to have robust and effective protection. Zyxel has implemented advanced features such as sandboxing, which prevents potential threats from spreading on the network. IP and DNS reputation filtering is also included, offering a proactive and reactive approach to cybersecurity.

Advanced Features for Better Network Isolation

The new capabilities of the USGFLEX Ultimate H series help provide greater isolation and rapid response to threats, using cutting-edge technologies such as Zyxel’s Nebula. These cloud technologies continually update filtering systems, allowing users to prevent up to 70% of threats through a defense-in-depth strategy.

Content filtering capabilities include IP checks synchronized with cloud-based categories that stay ahead of current threat trends. Additionally, the Collaborative Detection & Response (CDR) feature allows different network devices to collaborate to identify and quarantine compromised systems, improving overall network security.

Strengthening Security against Modern Threats

Some of the main cyber risks that SMEs face include ransomware, malware and zero-day vulnerabilities. Zyxel has included an intrusion detection and prevention system (IDPS) that monitors network traffic for these and other suspicious activities. This type of technology allows companies to react quickly to security incidents.

Gonzalo Echeverría, Country Manager of Zyxel Iberia, highlighted that the new security solutions are the result of continuous research and adapted to the needs of the Spanish market. This reflects a commitment to developing tools that are both effective and affordable for SMEs, a sector facing a growing number of cyber risks.

Regulatory Compliance with NIS2

Zyxel also ensures that all its solutions are compatible with the NIS2 regulation, which imposes stricter requirements for cybersecurity. This includes the implementation of advanced technologies that are necessary to protect sensitive data and maintain the integrity of users and companies.

NIS2 compliance is crucial for SMEs as it not only ensures better protection but also gives them peace of mind that they are aligned with the required security regulations. Zyxel also provides ongoing support through accredited experts and partners, helping businesses not only comply with regulations but also maintain the resilience of their networks.

Cloud Security Adoption Capabilities

Adopting cloud technologies as part of Zyxel solutions allows SMEs to access modern security solutions without the need for large upfront investments in infrastructure. This is especially relevant for companies that may traditionally have a limited budget for technology. The subscription services offered by Zyxel present a viable and affordable way for SMBs to achieve robust security.

Zyxel presents itself as a trusted provider in the field of cybersecurity, with more than 1 million companies in 150 markets using its solutions. This wide acceptance positions Zyxel as a market leader, offering technology that evolves according to the demands of current cybersecurity.
