Cisco Content Security Management Appliance M390 - Security Appliance - GigE - 1U - Refurbished - Rack-mountable - SMA-M390-K9-RF

• Simplified administration and planning
  Using the Cisco SMA's easy-to-use intuitive interface, network managers can publish policy settings and configuration changes from a single console to multiple Cisco ESAs and WSAs. Alternatively, organizations can dedicate specific appliances to individual applications for high-volume deployments. In addition, network managers can be notified when security appliances exceed their recommended capacity. The Cisco SMA reports the number of transactions per second and the system's latency, response time, and proxy buffer memory. This information enables network managers to determine when they need to reconfigure the system or install additional appliances.
• Improved compliance monitoring and enforcement
  Centralized reporting and tracking help determine which users are in violation of acceptable use policies, identify policy infractions across any department or site, and monitor the use of Web 2.0 applications such as Facebook and YouTube as well as visits to URLs in specific categories such as "gambling" or "sports."
• Enhanced threat protection
  The Cisco SMA delivers a comprehensive view of an organization's security operations, providing better threat intelligence, defense, and remediation. Important features include the centralized management of email spam quarantine, comprehensive threat monitoring across multiple web security gateways, web reputation scoring, and botnet detection. The Cisco SMA's reporting capabilities can also be used to help administrators identify and address activities involving data loss prevention (DLP).
• High performance and scalability
  The Cisco SMA has two proprietary databases optimized for reporting and tracking, rather than a single generic database. Appropriate computations are applied to each query for the rapid generation of real-time reports. Built on the high-performance Cisco AsyncOS operating system, the Cisco SMA provides outstanding scalability to meet the demands of small, medium-sized, and large enterprises as well as service providers.

Centralize management and reporting functions across multiple Cisco Email Security Appliances (ESAs) and Cisco Web Security Appliances (WSAs) with the Cisco Content Security Management Appliance (SMA). The integration of Cisco SMA with Cisco ESAs and WSAs simplifies the planning and administration of email and web security, improves compliance monitoring, makes possible a consistent enforcement of acceptable-use policies, and enhances threat protection. Organizations must often coordinate the management and administration of multiple appliances across geographically dispersed teams with a limited staff and budget. Built on a robust platform optimized for reporting and tracking, the Cisco SMA delivers high performance and scalability plus outstanding protection and control for long-term investment value.
