gateprotect to release new version of firewall 

Fully optimized for the workplace, version 9.5 of the gateprotect’s firewall platform includes integrated reverse proxy functions that provide enhanced protection of an internal network by securing access to servers from the Internet. The addition of these features makes it easier to establish and manage load balancing guidelines and other dedicated filtering rules.

Reverse proxy systems acquire for clients from one or more servers, enabling internal servers to be made available through the same external IP address. The reverse proxy then receives all queries originating from the Internet and transfers them to target systems based on pre-established guidelines. Through this setup, external users are only provided with access to the reverse proxy; all other data is protected.

Additional internal resources may be enabled at will without the need for opening gateways that could attract potential threats.
