LANCOM expands its SME firewall portfolio with the new UF-360 rackmount model. The latest generation of UTM cybersecurity as a rackmount firewall for small and medium-sized companies.
The German network infrastructure supplier LANCOM Systems is expanding its range of rackmount firewalls for small and medium-sized companies. The new LANCOM R & S®Unified Firewall UF-360 is a high-performance complete solution for effective cybersecurity that combines state-of-the-art cybersecurity technologies such as Unified Threat Management (UTM) with sandboxing and machine learning. The UF-360 is now available from LANCOM dealers.
Generation change in UTM firewalls
With the introduction of the UF-360, LANCOM is consistently driving the generation change in its UTM firewalls. Thanks to a completely new hardware design and expanded software functions, the all-in-one box achieves a massive leap in performance compared to the previous model UF-300: doubling of performance and storage capacity, new module expansion slot and two 10 Gbit / s SFP + interfaces. It is suitable for medium to large office and school environments, depending on the respective data volume.
SSL & Deep Packet Inspection and Machine Learning

The UF-360 counteracts the increasing encryption of data traffic with powerful SSL inspection, while the R & S®PACE2 deep packet inspection engine offers protection against highly complex advanced persistent threat (APT) cyber attacks. It allows a precise classification of network traffic, protocols and applications as well as protection against data leakage and data loss (data loss prevention, DLP) - also at layer 7 level. To protect against malware and viruses, including zero-day exploits, suspicious files are analyzed in a shielded sandbox with the help of machine learning. The cloud service used for this is hosted in Germany.
Graphical user interface & cloud management
An intuitive graphical user interface offers transparency across all secured areas in the company and simplifies the implementation of company-wide security and compliance requirements. The highest level of reliability is made possible by an HA network (high availability) with redundant hardware. The UF-360 can also be connected to the LANCOM Management Cloud (LMC) via a simple pairing process. This enables clear monitoring including alarms about the device status as well as remote configuration via the cloud.
