Next-Generation Firewall
Build security-driven networks that weave AI / ML-powered NGFW services deep into your hybrid IT architecture. NGFW feature advanced firewall protection, secure VPN access, and comprehensive protection from web, email, and application-level threats.
What are the Capabilities of a next gen firewall
•Application and User Control: A NGFW has visibility into application-layer network traffic and various users on the network. This allows the NGFW to enforce granular, zero-trust access controls.
​
•Encrypted Traffic Inspection: NGFWs support the decryption and inspection of HTTPS encrypted tunnels. This enables them to overcome the use of encryption to hide malware delivery and command and control traffic.
​
•Integrated IPS: An integrated IPS is one of the core features that differentiate an NGFW from traditional firewalls. An IPS dramatically expands an NGFW’s ability to identify and block network-based exploits that target vulnerable applications and systems.
​
•Advanced Malware Detection: Modern malware is crafted to avoid signature-based detection schemes. NGFWs incorporate advanced malware detection capabilities, including the use of sandbox analysis to examine malicious and suspicious files.
​
•Threat Intelligence Feeds: Threat intelligence feeds provide insight into new and evolving cyberattack campaigns. Integrating threat intelligence enables NGFWs to leverage indicators of compromise (IoCs) to identify and block new attacks.
