Why have a Next Generation Firewall?

Is your firewall appropriately implemented and configured? In our experience the use of traditional firewalls and attempts to enforce a one-size-fits-all approach to security, will simply result in a business being under protected and therefore more susceptible to compromise.

A next-generation firewall (NGFW), is a sophisticated hardware or software-based infrastructure security system that is able to detect and block cyber-attacks by enforcing security policies at the application level, as well as at the port and protocol level.

Block more threats and quickly mitigate those that do breach your defenses with the industry’s first threat-focused NGFW. We utilise the NGFW hardware and software that combines a proven network firewall with the industry’s most effective next-gen IPS and advanced malware protection. All so you can get more visibility, be more flexible, save more, and protect better.
