Hillstone Networks bags placement in Gartner Magic Quadrant for UTM

Hillstone Networks, a provider of network security solutions, has been positioned in Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Unified Threat Management, for the third consecutive year. Gartner defines the unified threat management (UTM) market as “multifunction network security products used by small or midsize businesses (SMBs).”

“We are pleased to receive continued recognition in the UTM Magic Quadrant. We believe it validates our vision to provide a 360 view and control of any network, small or large; physical or virtual. We continue to build on our vision to offer robust network security solutions for our customers, including the SMB customer,” said Lingling Zhang, VP of Product and Marketing, at Hillstone Networks.

Hillstone has been recognised for the strength of its vision and execution to provide security for enterprises, large and small:

• Hillstone offers an all-inclusive licensing option that makes it easier for SMB buyers to purchase the solutions.
• Hillstone offers virtual platforms - CloudEdge and CloudHive – to help SMBs who are heavily virtualised.
• A robust reporting dashboard provides the right visibility and forensics into any security incidents for SMBs for maximum protection
• Application identification supports more than 3,000 applications with the largest reach for application for SMBs.

Continued recognition and presence in the Magic Quadrant for UTM illustrates Hillstone’s capabilities to serve the SMB market with the appropriate security solution to meet their business needs, the company said. Gartner’s guidance is that SMB users should evaluate UTM offerings based on their specific needs and requirements; the actual performance delivered in conjunction with the added features; along with the availability of technical support.
