In today’s digital landscape, protecting your network is more critical than ever. A firewall acts as a vital security barrier between a trusted internal network and potentially harmful external networks, such as the internet. By monitoring and controlling incoming and outgoing traffic based on predefined security rules, a firewall helps prevent unauthorized access, significantly enhancing your network's security. Firewalls filter out potentially malicious data packets, providing a crucial layer of defense against cyber threats.
At Primend, we recognize the importance of robust security solutions for our clients. That’s why we offer a comprehensive package of firewall and Unified Threat Protection (UTP) services, which together form a powerful security bundle. This combination safeguards organizations against various web-borne threats, including sophisticated DNS-based attacks.
After thorough evaluation, we selected Fortinet as our default firewall solution and here are the reasons
