BiGuard 2/10 supports comprehensive IPSec VPN protocols for businesses to
establish private encrypted tunnels over the Internet to ensure data transmission
security among multiple sites, such as a branch office or dial-up connection. Up to
2/10 simultaneous IPSec VPN connections are possible on BiGuard 2/10, with

network services via malicious attacks. In addition, BiGuard 2/10 firewall can be
configured to alert you via email should your network come under fire, offering both
tight network security and peace of mind.
