Cloud Firewall
Within the Wanscale platform, additional use can be made of a Cloud Firewall.
The standard firewall suite of Wanscale consists of a proprietary developed firewall, supplemented with a virtual Next-Gen Firewall environment from Fortinet.
The Wanscale firewall is distributed in design, ensuring guaranteed performance for all components within the network and placing security as close to the source as possible.
The next-gen Fortinet firewall is isolated within the platform, providing the most advanced security. The firewall acts as a barrier between your organization’s internal network and all external cloud services, platforms, and cloud applications.
Scalable
Wanscale’s firewall solutions are fully scalable. You only pay for the capacity that you actually consume.
The Firewall inspects the network traffic entering and leaving the cloud infrastructure, applying policy rules to determine which traffic is allowed and which is blocked. This is done based on criteria such as source and destination addresses, ports, protocols, and application layers.
Layer 4
Up to layer 4 of the OSI model is secured by default on the Wanscale platform.
Clear benefits
- Optimal use of your WAN infrastructure
- Reduction of management costs for your IT department
- Extremely scalable
