HOW IT WORKS
The Valar approach
Valar rests on three principles: a clearly tiered hardware portfolio, a deeply integrated AI engine, and European sovereignty over engineering, software and data.
01
A model portfolio, not one-size-fits-all
Four hardware lines cover the range from a single site to a distributed enterprise network. Each model is tuned to the typical load profile of its target segment. No artificially crippled appliances, no overpriced entry tier.
02
NeoI as the core engine
Unlike purely signature-based approaches, Valar uses the NeoI engine to detect novel attack patterns. Behavioral analysis, anomaly detection, and threat intelligence from global telemetry feed into daily updates.
03
Developed in Europe
Engineering, software and data residency sit in Europe: operating system, ruleset, detection and management come from us, and the data stays in the EU. The appliances are manufactured to our specification, and the supply chain is documented and evidenced. That removes the risks from the U.S. CLOUD Act and opaque ODM arrangements where they count — in software, updates and data.
04
Licensing without module cascades
Functions such as IPS, SSL inspection, VPN, and web filtering are included in the base license. Licensing scales with model and term, not with a catalog of separately purchased function bundles.
