Next Gen Firewalls

Next gen firewalls are an intelligent and effective cyber security tool that help enhance your business IT security provision

Managed firewalls for your security and peace of mind

What is a Next Gen Firewall and what does it do? Next gen firewalls move beyond stateful inspection of network traffic to provide protection against more modern, complex cyber threats such as advanced malware and application-layer attacks.

Next gen firewalls not only include standard firewall functions such as stateful inspection – they go further, with facilities including integrated intrusion prevention, threat intelligence and the ability to tackle evolving security threats. In short, next gen firewalls offer more advanced and active cyber security technology than a traditional firewall.

Decrypt Encrypted traffic streams: Next Gen Fire walls (NGFW) can decrypt traffic, inspect it and then re-encrypt it before sending it to the destination.
Instantly and automatically identifies malicious threats and isolates infected systems until they’re cleaned and eliminated from the network infrastructure.
Deep packet inspection (DPI) examines the data within the packet itself, this ill enable the automated Next gen system to effectively identify and stop packet if malicious.
