Module description

Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.

The Huawei USG6000 Series Firewalls is designed for large- and medium sized enterprises and next-generation data centers. Provide fine-grained service access control and service acceleration through context awareness by Application, Content, Time, User, Attack, or location (ACTUAL). The USG6000 integrates application-layer protection functions, such as Intrusion Prevention System (IPS), anti-virus, and URL filtering with application identification technologies to improve the threat defense efficiency and accuracy.
