Managed Firewall

The perimeter has evolved.

Gone are the days when a perimeter firewall was the only thing you had to think about with a security strategy. The perimeter has evolved and so has cyber security, but in this new world of sophisticated, high volume attacks, the firewall has adapted.

You still have a perimeter to your corporate network but your data and users don’t always sit within it. The firewall has evolved in response with next generation platforms to monitor traffic across all seven layers of the network. We have also seen the Web Application Firewall (WAF) step up and take on a vital role in protecting applications that are presented publicly on the Internet, whether hosted on-premises or on the public cloud.

The uptake of public cloud has also seen the need for firewalls (next generation and WAFs) to run as native cloud services to allow organisations to take their security policies and tools with them as they migrate services into AWS, Azure and GCP. The cloud has also driven a move to building zero trust networks, essential when running on shared infrastructure, but many organisations have chosen to adopt this model on-premises as well.

In a world where we try and make things simple, the firewall and its role in cyber resilience has got a lot more complicated. Your IT Team has enough to do just balancing operations with the demand from the business for new projects, so choosing a provider to manage your firewall services regardless of type or location makes sense.
