DIGITAL ASSET PROTECTION

Next Generation Enterprise Firewall (NGFW)

The Next Generation Firewall is a security protocol that manages network traffics and implements policies to block potentially harmful data trafficking. Next Generation Firewalls evolve from the traditional firewall with additional features. We can think of conventional firewalls as the first level of security. It has the feature to block or allow a particular data exchange/ trafficking based on where is its destination and departure sources in order to have a checkpoint on the network security. but a Next Generation Firewall, on the other hand, works like a second level of security. It examines the data deeper to ensure data security and block any potential threat that traditional firewalls could not detect.

You can create granular network segmentation across public/private cloud and LAN environments. This allows you to set and enforce a “Least Privileged” access policy by giving you detailed visibility into the users, groups, applications, machines, and connection types on your network.

Next Generation Firewalls can even set policies within your network for better protection on your network, quickly detect invasive or suspicious activity, like malware, and block it before it affects the rest of the network.

Some NGFWs are hardware-based and designed to secure an internal network. It can also be implemented as software, although software-based ones are not considered next-generation ones. An NGFW can be a cloud service which is referred to as a cloud firewall or firewall-as-a-service.

WHAT TO EXPECT IN A NEXT GENERATION FIREWALL

Every network requires defense from zero-day attacks such as Ransomware, Cryptojacking, Advanced Persistent Threats (APT), etc., and signature-based attacks such as viruses, worms, trojans, spyware, adware, botnet, command and control, etc. A Next Generation Firewall provides the same.

A basic firewall keeps a table of every active session passing through it using network layer access controls that permit or deny traffic based on information in the packet headers. This information could include IP addresses, protocols, or port numbers. It also enforces network address translation (NAT) by hiding internal private addresses from the Internet while making those internal resources publicly accessible on the network. Moreover, it also logs information about unsuccessful sessions.

A Next Generation Firewall (NGFW) has all the features of a basic firewall, plus some or all of the additional features like IDS/IPS, antivirus/anti-malware, Sandboxing, Anti-bot, Anti-Spam, Web proxy and URL checking and control, application control, load balancing, Geolocation, Authentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA), VPN (Remote to site and site to site) and is powered by threat intelligence engine.

Sandboxing is the most advanced NGFW technology that innovates and enhances anti-ransomware and CPU-level emulation capabilities. This solution is based on new CPU-level exploit detection technology to identify threats before malware can deploy evasion code.

HOW IVALUE CAN HELP

iValue can help your organization to identify and set up a suitable set of Next Generation Firewall features and tools to protect your network, data centers (on-prem, cloud, and hybrid), laptops, smartphones, and cloud applications.

Our team’s primary focus is on prevention and remediation. We will follow up on all firewall warnings and alerts and determine the alert’s authenticity. If it’s a real threat, we will take appropriate action to remediate the root cause of the problem.

Moreover, we will perform security checkups for your network that helps in providing complete visibility of the performance of your existing firewall within your network. In iValue, we help fine-tune your existing firewall for the best performance or upgrade your existing firewall with advanced technology to protect it from advanced threats.

Our advanced threat prevention solutions, like the Next Generation Enterprise Firewall, can protect your entire infrastructure from sophisticated fifth-generation cyber-attacks. With hybrid cloud support, we ensure consistent security is implemented across all physical, virtual, public, and private endpoints.
