SSG140 SECURE
SERVICES GATEWAY
DATASHEET
Product Overview
The SSG140 Secure Services
Gateway is a purpose-built security
appliance that delivers a perfect
blend of performance, security,
routing and LAN/WAN connectivity
for medium sized branch offices and
business deployments. Traffic flowing
in and out of the branch office or
business is protected from worms,
spyware, trojans, and malware by
a complete set of Unified Threat
Management security features that
include stateful firewall, IPsec VPN,
intrusion prevention system (IPS),
antivirus (includes antispyware,
antiadware, antiphishing), antispam
and Web filtering.
Product Description
The Juniper Networks® SSG140 Secure Services Gateway is a high-performance security
platform for branch offices and small/medium sized standalone businesses that want to
stop internal and external attacks, prevent unauthorized access, and achieve regulatory
compliance. The SSG140 is a modular platform that delivers more than 350 Mbps of
stateful firewall traffic and 100 Mbps of IPsec VPN traffic.
Security: Protection against worms, viruses, trojans, spam, and emerging malware is
delivered by proven unified threat management (UTM) security features that are backed
by best-in-class partners. To address internal security requirements and facilitate
regulatory compliance, the SSG140 supports an advanced set of network protection
features such as security zones, virtual routers and VLANs that allow administrators to
divide the network into distinct, secure domains, each with its own unique security policy.
Policies protecting each security zone can include access control rules and inspection by
any of the supported UTM security features.
Connectivity and Routing: The SSG140 supports ten on-board interfaces (eight 10/100 plus two
10/100/1000) complemented by four I/O expansion slots that can house additional LAN and
WAN interfaces (T1, E1, G.SHDSL, ISDN BRI S/T, Serial, and 10/100/100), making the SSG140 the
most extensible security platform in its class. This broad array of I/O options coupled with WAN
protocol and encapsulation support in its routing engine make the SSG140 a platform that can
easily be deployed as a traditional branch oce router or as a consolidated security and routing
device to reduce CapEx and OpEx.
Access Control Enforcement: The SSG140 can act as an enforcement point in a Juniper
Networks Unified Access Control (UAC) deployment with the simple addition of the
IC Series Unified Access Control Appliance. The IC Series functions as a central policy
management engine, interacting with the SSG140 to augment or replace the firewall-
based access control with a solution that grants/denies access based on more granular
criteria that include endpoint state and user identity, in order to accommodate the
dramatic shifts in attack landscape and user characteristics.
World Class Support: From simple lab testing to major network implementations,
Juniper Networks Professional Services will collaborate with your team to identify goals,
define the deployment process, create or validate the network design, and manage the
deployment to its successful conclusion.
