Before zeroing in on the perfect Unified Threat Management (UTM) solution, it is important to look at the nooks and crannies of network infrastructure and analyze the efficacy of a UTM service module. A UTM appliance cumulates multiple security features and offers a congregated solution that takes care of every organizational aspect. Therefore, it is important to analyze the feature sets associated with a Unified Threat Management solution for understanding the effectiveness of the same.

Selecting the Right Vendor

Service providers that offer excellent customer support are certainly preferred over the others. In addition to that, UTM vendors must offer compatibility and continuity as the industrial staples. Organizations procuring UTM services from specific vendors must realize that every service provider doesn’t necessarily offer the same set of features. Moreover, different packages offered by the same vendor can also vary, depending upon the system requirements. Some of the more elusive feature sets offered by selective vendors include deep packet inspection and DLP. Certain vendors also have their own antivirus programs for adding substance to an existing UTM solution.

Looking at the UTM Performance
