Protect your network from viruses, malware and malicious activity with Kerio Control. This Unified Threat Management(UTM) solution provides comprehensive protection of your ships network and data, and includes a NEXT generation firewall and router, intrusion and prevention (IPS), gateway antivirus, VPN, and web content and application filtering
The compact size of the NG100 makes it ideal for smaller yachts with one office, branch offices or for remote workers connecting in from their home offices. It may be small, but it is powerful for its size with its dual core processor ensuring it keeps your business safely connected.
Kerio control NG100
For medium-sized superyachts, this appliance provides a powerful all-in-one security solution. It contains a quad-core processor and will keep the ships network safe and secure for crew members and remote workers.
Kerio control NG300
For larger Superyachts who are looking for a rack-mountable appliance, the NG500 is a more powerful solution. It is a complete security solution for the entire vessel. Powered by a quad-core processor, it will keep the network protected and ensure employee productivity.

kerio control features
simple user interface
Handle all administration and configuration activities from a customizable web-based console — no matter the deployment option you choose. Manage anytime, anywhere from your desktop or tablet. Monitor system health and network traffic. Quickly and securely access security settings, manage users and bandwidth, and set traffic policies from an intuitive interface. Automatically back up your custom settings to secure cloud-based storage via integration to Samepage or to FTP.
web & content filter
Selectively block, allow or log access to 141 categories of web content with Kerio Control Web Filter. Keep bandwidth-hogging traffic like streaming video off your network or block peer-to-peer networks. Keep your users from visiting malware sites that are known to contain viruses and spyware or to engage in phishing or identity theft. The optional Kerio Control Web Filter service limits legal liability, protects your network and boosts user productivity by limiting user access to dangerous or inappropriate sites or those that just plain waste time.
Secure vpn
Link headquarters to remote users and branch offices securely and easily. Kerio’s own VPN tunneling with dead-simple setup requires minimal configuration, and provides a high performance network connection. Or, use industry-standard IPsec/L2TP for connectivity from mobile devices or third-party firewalls. Enable 2-step verification for an extra layer of security on all forms of remote access.
detailed network reporting
Get detailed usage reporting with Kerio Control Statistics. This component lets managers and admins view the Internet activity details of individual users — from a list of all sites visited and when, to the specific search terms users enter on search engines and regular websites with search capabilities. Use these granular usage insights to refine traffic-shaping rules, monitor employee performance, and more. Best of all, these highly granular reports can automatically run on a schedule and be emailed to you, ready for your review — no need to actively pull reports each week.
granular bandwidth control for users & vlans
Easily prioritize and monitor network traffic to guarantee high-speed transmission for the most important traffic types. Internet Link Load Balancing optimizes Internet access by distributing traffic across multiple links. Kerio Control monitors link availability, and automatically disables or re-enables links to ensure continuous Internet access. Kerio Control QoS gives you fine-grained control over how much bandwidth each type of network traffic can consume. Cap lower priority traffic by setting a bandwidth maximum, or guarantee high priority traffic by assigning a minimum. Kerio Control also uses Internet Link Load Balancing to distribute Internet traffic across multiple links.
deep packet inspection
Preserve the integrity of your servers with deep packet inspection and advanced network routing capabilities — including simultaneous IPv4 and IPv6 support. Create inbound and outbound traffic policies, restricting communication by specific URL, traffic type, content category and time of day. Kerio Control’s IPS adds a transparent layer of network protection, with Snort-based behavior analysis, and a regularly updated database of rules and blacklisted IP addresses from Emerging Threats.
Advanced Antivirus
Keep viruses, worms, trojans and spyware from infesting your network with integrated Sophos Gateway Antivirus. The optional Sophos Antivirus service scans all web and FTP traffic, email attachments and downloads, automatically updating itself with the latest virus definitions.
With high-availability, if a crash or failure occurs to the primary machine, the second machine jumps into action immediately. Users see NO drop of service therefore the organization firewall was seemlessly transfered and the IT network left fully secure with not 1 milli second of vunerabilty exposure.
​
High availability/fail-over protection eliminates the risk and cost of connectivity or threat-protection downtime.
Without high-availability, prime device failure due to a power surge or other cause often leads network administrators to put a simple router in place to re-establish connectivity. There may be lost productivity waiting for this solution. But worse, the network is vulnerable to security threats until the secure gateway is repaired or replaced.
​
To initiate high-availability, new and existing customers:
-
Acquire and install a second, same Kerio Control appliance or virtual machine
-
A single software license will cover the two pieces of hardware
-
Customers configure the second device as a clone of the active one
-
Configuration settings are easy-to-do and take minutes
-
Once configured, the two devices connect through a synching port and all rules and routing are replicated and kept up-to-date between them.
