Juniper Advances Network Security Across its Platforms

Juniper Networks introduced new network security capabilities across its E-, M- and T-series platforms. New capabilities within Juniper's J-Protect security solution include:

  • Adaptive Services Physical Interface Card (PIC) and enhanced Tunnel Services Module add integrated, high-performance Network Address Translation (NAT) and Stateful Firewalling capabilities


  • Monitoring PIC (M-PIC) delivers integrated high-performance Flow Monitoring to the portfolio


  • Port Mirroring in the E-series simplifies traffic monitoring and analysis


  • New J-Protect Professional Services facilitate and enhance security best practices


Juniper Networks noted that security incidents continue to grow in frequency and sophistication and that the network itself has become a potential target, or multiplier, of attacks. The company said its goal is to secure the network by providing high performance protection across all devices and across the control plane, to protect the user by safeguarding data flows, and to reduce capital and operational burdens by minimizing the need for separate security devices.
