The Juniper Networks family of purpose-built security solutions is designed to satisfy customer networking and security requirements that range from small branch office and telecommuter locations to high-speed carrier and data center environments.

As threats to the network grow more prevalent and destructive, securing the infrastructure is critical to maintaining a viable business. Attacks come from multiple sources in a variety of forms. Enterprises and service providers need more than just a security device; they require a comprehensive, reliable security solution backed by an industry leader.

The Juniper Networks integrated security devices are purpose-built to perform essential security functions. Optimized for maximum performance, they are controlled by a security-specific, real-time operating system, Juniper Networks ScreenOS. This operating system has been designed from the ground up to perform security functions without the overhead that can create vulnerabilities in other security products that rely on general-purpose operating systems.

With a range of purpose-built, high-performance platforms that deliver integrated security and LAN/WAN routing across high-density LAN/WAN interfaces, Juniper’s integrated security devices address the needs of small to medium businesses, large distributed enterprises, and service providers. These integrated devices can protect the network from all manner of attacks and malware while simultaneously facilitating secure business-to-business communications.
