CacheGuard Products integrate multiple Security and Optimization features that you can activate or deactivate as per your needs using one simple interface (CLI or Web GUI). This solution is much tidier and efficient than several appliances stacked up on one another, with several administrative interfaces to interact with.

CacheGuard products and services provide you robust and easy to manage solutions that you need.

Installing CacheGuard-OS on your machine is pretty easy and you can do it by yourself within minutes. All you need to do is to download CacheGuard-OS installation CDROM, boot your machine on it and follow instructions.
