CloudEdge is a virtualized network security product specially designed for cloud computing environments. It has most of the network services common to Hillstone's hardware-based devices, and is an ideal solution for protecting network resources within Amazon Web Services. It provides Amazon Web Services users with enhanced access control, virtual private networks (VPNs), L2-L7 attack protection, server load balancing, and more. By adding a virtual firewall, Hillstone provides the ability to deploy hardware and virtual appliances for hybrid operations, providing more choice and flexibility.
Main features:

• Fine-grained application control: It can identify and prevent potential threats associated with high-risk apps.
• Access control for VPCs: Virtual private clouds provide logical security boundaries to protect virtual data centers. Deployed at the entrance to the VPC, CloudEdge provides each tenant with independent management, control, and protection.
• Data transfer via VPN: The CloudEdge VPN feature secures data transmission between a VPC or VPC and its associated corporate networks.
• Easy deployment and management: CloudEdge can be easily modified or instantiated from a template to address the highly dynamic change operations of virtual machines and virtual environments.
• Multi-tenant support: Supports tenant-specific configurations and security policies for maximum control and protection.
