WatchGuard’s mid-range firewalls protect small and midsize businesses against encrypted malware
WatchGuard Technologies released new Firebox M290, M390, M590, and M690 unified threat management appliances for small and midsize businesses. These new firewalls deliver increased security and the fastest performance of any mid-range Firebox appliance, with the processing power to handle encrypted and HTTPS traffic.
In addition, new expandable ports and integration with WatchGuard Cloud enable these firewalls to offer the flexibility needed to accommodate changing networking and security needs for customers and service provider partners.
As the threat landscape evolves, performance and flexibility are both critical for organizations looking to secure their network. Our recent Q2 2021 Internet Security Report found that more than 91% of malware attacking networks is encrypted,” said Corey Nachreiner, CSO at WatchGuard.
“It’s therefore essential for small and midsized organisations, or the partners servicing them, to have security solutions capable of processing encrypted traffic without negatively impacting overall performance. Our new mid-range M Series appliances deliver this capability and provide tools to simplify the deployment and ongoing management of these solutions as part of our WatchGuard Unified Security Platform.”
In another example of WatchGuard’s commitment to cross-platform integration, it’s easy to deploy, manage and create policies for these new Fireboxes from WatchGuard Cloud. Service providers can share configurations across multiple appliances and clients via templates and deploy appliances remotely from the Cloud.
A cohesive 30-day view of log data, fast log search and automated reporting greatly increases visibility. In addition, the new Firebox appliances integrate seamlessly with other solutions across the WatchGuard portfolio – including AuthPoint multi-factor authentication, WatchGuard Wi-Fi Access Points, and ThreatSync endpoint-network telemetry – to greatly simplify traditionally complex security management.
The new Firebox M290, M390, M590 and M690 appliances offer several enhancements and benefits including:
- Faster and more powerful. Each appliance has been designed to optimise HTTPS content inspection throughput, which…
