To initiate high-availability, new and existing customers: The organization has no vulnerability exposure. With high-availability, if a crash or failure occurs the second machine jumps into action immediately. But worse, the network is vulnerable to security threats until the secure gateway is repaired or replaced. There may be lost productivity waiting for this solution.

Without high-availability, prime device failure due to a power surge or other cause often leads network administrators to put a simple router in place to re-establish connectivity. Their clients, who may be at sea hundreds of miles away from tech support, need to know their networks are always up and secure.High availability/fail-over protection eliminates the risk and cost of connectivity or threat-protection downtime. “We pride ourselves on delivering right-size solutions for customers like Yachtcomputing. “This latest release for Kerio Control underlines the GFI commitment to continue developing its portfolio of network, security and communications products for the SMB market,” says Dan Beer, General Manager of GFI Software.

Once configured, the two devices connect through a syncing port and all rules and routing are replicated and kept up-to-date between them. Customers will configure that second device as a clone of the first active one.
