Nevales: Cloud based fully managed Security appliance

Solution Overview

It’s a common misconception that large enterprises have no budget-related challenges and that they do not hesitate incurring a huge CAPEX to fulfill any and every IT requirement. In reality, enterprises are doubly cautious about spending as a smallest miscalculation in procurement may lead to huge costs and/ or wastage of valuable resources. The rising adoption of cloud computing demonstrates that enterprises prefer a predictable OPEX model to a heavy CAPEX burden.

The journey of a large enterprise branching out into a new market (such as city or region) is not too different from that of a small company. The new branch operations of enterprises usually begin on a small scale. Given their high business dependence on Internet, the enterprise-branches need protection from security threats from Day 1. Networks at these branches need to be optimized and monitored for availability and productive use. Nevales understands this.

We offer the same world-class solutions to fulfill the needs of your branch operations. We understand your cautious approach when investing in IT at the branch-level and at remote locations. That’s why we give our enterprise-branch customers a full access to our cloud based security gateways devices, on an easy and scalable, OPEX-based subscription model.
