The relentless onslaught of hackers and scammers, growing in both scale and nature, forces organizations to spend millions on protecting their networks. The industry is also witnessing significant disruptions—hybrid IT, increasing network edges, segmented networks, and hyperscale—driving the adoption of the latest security solutions to thwart risks before it’s too late.

Amidst unmanaged endpoints, complex cloud-based infrastructure and evolving threat vectors, the need for a Zero Trust approach has become more apparent than ever. However, the lack of convergence remains a key challenge in achieving Zero Trust.

Though firewalls have always been a critical component of enterprise cybersecurity measures, the traditional firewalls were not designed to support the current security requirements or offer minute visibility and threat protection to today’s cloud-first businesses.

Next-generation Firewall combines the key features of a traditional firewall with a host of new-age features to help modern enterprises stay resilient and control their networks. From precise control, deep-packet inspection, and application awareness to antivirus and spam filtering, NGFWs offer the much-required protection from internal and external threats.
