Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFW)

1. Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFW) Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFW) represent a significant advancement in network security technology, integrating traditional firewall capabilities with additional features such as intrusion prevention, application awareness, and advanced threat detection. These sophisticated security appliances offer enhanced protection against modern cyber threats and provide granular control over network traffic. FEATURES: Deep Packet Inspection: NGFWs inspect network packets at the application layer, allowing them to effectively identify and block malicious traffic. Application Awareness: NGFWs can identify and control applications traversing the network, enabling administrators to enforce policies based on application usage. Intrusion Prevention System (IPS): NGFWs include IPS functionality to detect and block known and unknown threats in real-time. User Identity Awareness: NGFWs can integrate with identity management systems to enforce security policies based on user identities and roles. SSL/TLS Decryption: NGFWs can decrypt and inspect encrypted traffic to detect and prevent threats hidden within encrypted communication channels. Advanced Threat Protection: NGFWs incorporate advanced threat detection techniques such as sandboxing and machine learning to identify and mitigate sophisticated threats. Centralized Management: NGFWs offer centralized management consoles that provide administrators with a unified view of network security policies and events. Scalability: NGFWs are designed to scale with growing network infrastructure, supporting high throughput and large numbers of concurrent connections. Integration with Security Ecosystem: NGFWs can integrate with other security technologies such as SIEM systems, endpoint protection platforms, and threat intelligence feeds for enhanced security orchestration and response. Cloud Compatibility: NGFWs offer cloud-based deployment options, enabling organizations to extend their security perimeter to cloud environments and protect cloud-native applications and workloads. www.centextech.com Centex Technologies 13355 Noel Road, Suite #1100 Dallas, TX 75240 Phone: (972) 375 - 9654 1201 Peachtree ST NE, 400 Colony Square #200 Atlanta, GA 30361 Phone: (404) 994 - 5074 Capital Factory, 701 BrazosStreet, Suite 500 Austin, TX 78701 501 N. 4th Street, Killeen, TX 76541 Phone: (512) 956 - 5454 Phone: (254) 213 - 4740
