UTM
Unified Threat Management
An all-in-one appliance bundling firewall, IPS, antivirus, and more.
A UTM appliance consolidates multiple security functions such as firewall, intrusion prevention, antivirus, content filtering, and VPN into one device for simplified management. This bundling suits smaller organizations that lack resources to run separate point products. The trade offs are a potential single point of failure and performance strain when many inspection features run at once. It overlaps with next generation firewalls, though UTM emphasizes breadth of integrated services in a single box.
Looking UTM up is step one. Getting tested on it is step two.
