Protect Your Network with Next-Generation Firewalls
VirtualArmour partners with leading vendors to deliver advanced security solutions tailored to your network’s needs. Our experts ensure seamless procurement, deployment, and ongoing support for your NGFWs.
From selecting the right firewall solutions to managing and renewing support agreements, VirtualArmour provides comprehensive services to safeguard your network infrastructure.
The complexity of network attack surfaces has grown exponentially over the past couple of decades, due to the rise of mobile workers, IoT (internet of things) devices, and cloud environments.
The remote access required by remote workers across a wide range of diverse devices can lead to data leakage. Unmanaged IoT devices introduce dozens of attack surfaces or more to our networks, each one typically featuring minimal security features. Cloud environments are continually being updated with new and updated assets that may not always follow security protocols and represent serious data security challenges.
Hybrid mesh firewalls (HMFs) and next-generation firewalls (NGFWs) utilize advanced feature sets and flexible architectures that address the complexities of modern network environments to provide integrated network firewall solutions, simplifying firewall management like never before.
Why Choose Next-Generation Firewalls?
NGFWs
Distributed Networks Are Increasingly Vulnerable to Attacks
As our networks expand through rapid digital innovation, remote workers, IoT devices, and cloud environments, so must our firewall solutions expand to meet the evolving threat landscape. Not only do these factors increase the complexity in managing network security, but the vulnerabilities associated with each one opens us up to possible insider threats and sophisticated attack techniques.
Third-party next-generation firewall security services provide protection against these advanced threats through a combination of advanced features and integrated security technologies.
NGFWs: Simplifying Security for Complex Networks
Unified Protection Across Corporate, Remote, and Cloud Sites
Next-generation firewalls simplify distributed network security by consolidating all our security functions into a single device. There are a number of key benefits associated with this approach.
Consolidation of Security Functions – Combining next-generation firewalls with additional features reduces the need for multiple standalone products, streamlining security architecture and improving response times to perceived threats.
Cost Reduction – This consolidation also leads to reduced costs. Organizations spend less on purchasing and managing multiple solutions and on managing multiple vendors.
Centralized Management – Administrators have the ability to configure, monitor, and manage multiple firewalls from a single interface. This not only simplifies policy management and reporting, but ensures security policies are uniformly applied across the network.
Enhanced Visibility and Reporting – Administrators also gain real-time visibility into the network and any threats. This improved awareness allows for faster decision-making and a more rapid response to identified threats.
Scalability – Working with a consolidated network security firewall solution allows for easy scaling when organizations grow. Managing changes through a single deployment makes expansion simple and reduces the chance for errors.
