THE BENEFITS OF FWaaS

Still unsure of FWaaS’ potential? Here are some real, tangible benefits your business can see by working with an FWaaS provider.

Multiple Services. One Unified Solution.

Deploy anti-virus, anti-malware and next-generation firewall capabilities to protect your on-site or remote workers from a single, easy-to-use platform.

Application-Aware Firewall

Expand your firewall protection to encompass network traffic, transport layer security (TSL), and Layer 7 app-level security to boost your overall security posture.

THE EVOLUTION OF FIREWALL PROTECTION

Firewalls evolved alongside the internet as a way for businesses to keep their data centers secure while accessing information from outside sources. The first firewalls were simple controllers that used IP addresses and port numbers to authorize access.

However, as cyberattacks became more sophisticated, more stateful firewalls entered the picture in order to track the condition of a TCP connection. These stateful firewalls represented the second generation of protection enterprises could utilize.

Today, we have next-generation firewall capabilities, meaning security tools analyze far more information about specific network traffic to make routing decisions. GTT’s firewall service uses this NGFW technology to provide endpoint protection.

IMPROVED NETWORK VISIBILITY

FWaaS integrates your necessary security components, like anti-virus, anti-malware and firewalls, into a single-pane view, reducing time spent navigating various systems. Unify your security policies, transfer traffic to the cloud and enjoy complete network visibility.
