Hybrid Mesh Firewall Platforms
Simplify the complexity of implementing and managing firewalls and disparate security solutions across your enterprise
Overview
A Hybrid Mesh Firewall (HMF) platform solves the complexity of managing islands of network security solutions that support today’s evolving work environments and protect against the threat landscape.
This platform has three essential components
- Diverse firewall form factors
- Flexible security service consumption model
- Unified, cloud-delivered management with reporting and analytics
HMF drives comprehensive network protection, strong defenses, simplified access control, and flexibility in security service procurement for your business.
Diverse Form-Factors
Businesses deploy multiple firewall form factors to enable optimal protection for their hybrid work environments. With an HMF platform, you have the flexibility to deploy a mix of form factors such as hardware, cloud or virtual, firewall-as-a-service, and SD-WAN.
SonicWall HMF offers a comprehensive network security portfolio with diverse form-factors that include:
Hardware
- Small form-factor firewalls for SOHO, IoT, and Small Businesses
- Midrange firewalls for midsize and distributed enterprises
- Datacenter firewalls for large enterprises
Cloud and Virtual Firewalls
- Secure public, private, and government clouds
- Protect corporate resources from attacks at the Internet gateway
Firewall-as-a-Service
Cloud-based subscription-based service that secures networks and applications
Secure SD-WAN
Secure high availability (HA) and high-performance WANs using low cost internet access such as broadband, 3G/4G/LTE (fiber) and firewalls with SD-WAN capabilities built-in
Comprehensive Security Services
HMF requires flexible service offerings to enable protection that meets the unique needs of businesses and organizations. Some organizations require network security service protection but minimal reporting and analytics. On the other hand, organizations with high compliance and audit requirements need extensive reporting and analytics. Other companies may seek managed firewall services to adhere to service level agreements (SLAs) or expand their managed services.
SonicWall provides simplified licensing suites with bundled and ala-carte options. The suites are designed for low consumption costs, high costs-to-use correspondence, and flexible service add-ons.
The licensing for services includes:
Advanced Protection Security Suite (APSS)
Advanced Protection Security Suite is for businesses that require strong security, web filtering, and additional reporting and analytics. The suite delivers the critical security services for threat protection, management and orchestration, 24x7 support, and summary reports for 7 days. Critical security services include Gateway Anti-Virus, Intrusion Prevention, Application Control, Content Filtering Service, network visibility, multi-engine sandboxing in conjunction with Real-time Deep Memory Inspection (RTDMI), anti-spam and basic DNS security. It also includes DNS filtering, and 7 days of advanced reporting and analytics.
Managed Protection Security Suite (MPSS)
Managed Protection Security Suite makes firewall management even easier by leaving it to the SonicWall team. Our team will monitor your firewall and notify you of downtime or local changes, and will manage all firmware updates for you on your schedule.
Cloud-based, Unified Management
A critical component of a HMF is the capability to manage and orchestrate all the mesh components centrally. You must have visibility and control over firewalls, switches and access points, endpoints, and cloud security, all on a unified management platform. Unified management streamlines administration and policy enforcement and allows for deep insights. These lead to a strong security posture and compliance with industry security standards.
SonicWall’s hybrid mesh firewall solution includes SonicWall Unified Management, a unified Cloud SaaS multi-tenanted and multi-tier management for SonicWall security solutions. With SonicWall Unified Management, you have a single, unified console to deploy, manage, and monitor firewalls, switches, access points, endpoint threat detection, and secure service edge.
