NetCat

This solution from Navaho is entry-level, yet a powerful Internet Management appliance, built to satisfy the needs of the business customer with a network of up to 25 workstations. It is easy to install and configure. The NetCAT protects your company's network from undesirable aspects of the Internet with a minimum of maintenance.

 

Easy Installation and Management

A front-mounted LCD panel and kepad provides for the initial set-up. All other administration of the server is achieved through a web browser utilising a secure connection. This enables administration activities from virtually anywhere.

 

Internet Acceleration

The NetCAT intelligently stores commonly requested web pages and images via its caching proxy server. NetCAT can double your perceived Internet Bandwidth in typical usage by serving these pages and images direct.

 

Internet Control and Auditing

Businesses need to be sure that their connections are utilised in the most efficient, safest and intended of manners. NetCAT achieves these goals by enabling control of internet usage in a number of ways.

  • Enable/disable access on an individual and group basis.
  • Categorised web site content filtering can block access to inappropriate web sites
  • Locally managed allow, block and content filter lists
  • Control over times of access to the web

The categorised block lists are regularly and automatically updated by Navaho Support, meaning that you don't have to spend time looking for inappropriate web sites. NetCAT also provides a number of advanced control features for email traffic:

  • Control which addresses can be sent to and received from
  • Content filtering can block offensive words
  • Security filter looks for common viruses and trojans
  • Optional virus scanner (powered by Sophos Anti-Virus Technology)
  • Spam relay protection and global rejection
  • Intelligent Anti-Spam filter
Comprehensive logging and auditing -
Every (single) email and web page that passes through NetCAT is logged, so you can find out exactly who is using the Internet and for what! Powerful Auditing tools help you to analyse the usage of your connection including a unique user profiling tool.
  Security -
Out of the box your Internet server is a tempting target for hackers, crackers and spammers. A typical server on the Internet will be scanned for vulnerabilities over 20 times an hour. NetCAT has a whole host of built-in security features to protect itself and your network from attack.

Firewall -
A tough, stateful firewall prevents access to any services on the server and the local area network which may be vulnerable to attack. Spam relay protection ensures that your server cannot be used to send spam email, whilst email security scanners check for common viruses or trojans.
Navaho’s own Security scanners can be complimented with an antivirus plug-in powered by Sophos.

  File Server -
For smaller usage networks, the built in file server solution with domain logon server support does away with the need for a separate file server.
DHCP -
The DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server can automatically allocate IP addresses to your workstations, saving time on configuration of your workstations.

  VPN -
NetCAT uses 3-DES encryption using RSA or PSK authentication creating connections secure and untapable. NetCAT supports one site-to-site VPN tunnel and a number 'mobile users', making it ideal for a small company or a branch office.
