Abstract :
Since emerged in 2004, Unified Threat Management (UTM) has been used widely to enhance network security protection. Typical UTM device integrates multiple security technologies, therefore its control and management involves various interfaces, message formats, communication protocols, and security policies and so on. Therefore, it is a big challenge to design and implement the configuration and management of security technologies in UTM. To address this issue, this paper proposes a practical UTM control mechanism that features ease-to-use, scalability, interoperability, high-efficiency and reliability. The solution, called UTM-Configuration and Management (UTM-CM), has been implemented and its performance was evaluated.
