Today’s rapidly evolved cyber threats have proved that legacy protection methods are incapable of preventing malicious attempts from attacking enterprise networks. Therefore, it is time for “next-generation firewall” or “NGFW” for short, a term coined by Gartner, to mitigate the advanced cyber attacks and protect enterprise serviceability.
Different from legacy firewalls, NGFW are high-performance network security appliances offering advanced intrusion prevention, application/user visibility, SSL inspection and unknown threat detection. By integrating high-performance from the hardware level and the security intelligence from the software layer, the NGFW appliances can protect both the edge of branch offices as well as the internal segments of the data centers.
