Recommendation:
Next Generation Firewall (NGFW) is a hardware or software based network security technology that is able to detect and block sophisticated attacks by enforcing security policies at the application level, as well as the port and protocol level. NGFWs assist enterprises in managing complex and highly distributed networks by optimizing network availability, scalability, and cost. In addition, NGFWs act as the core of an enterprise network security, centralizing monitoring, management, and reporting across diverse virtual, physical, and Cloud environments, as well as third-party devices. The increased visibility and functionality of the NGFWs allows an enterprise to quickly respond to events and threats, as well as automate remediation. NGFWs optimize work flows to streamline daily administrative tasks and security management to create highly efficient environment with a low total cost of ownership.
