Taking the administrative burden of managing Firewall
devices from your internal IT departments.
The diversification of IT infrastructure and constantly evolving security threats combined with the drive within businesses to reduce IT spend whilst providing more secure and flexible working practices, has led to the adoption of a managed firewall service becoming a core business strategy.
Managing your own firewall.
Cyber security threats are on the rise, staying ahead of these threats is a thankless task.
Setting up a firewall is a specialised job. many businesses are vulnerable due to errors in configuring their firewall.
It can be hard for most companies to update and maintain their firewall especially if they have no IT team or experience.
Firewalls have constant updates that must be applied to stay up to date and secure.
