Datacenter Firewalling
Datacenter Firewalling is an essential aspect of the security of your Wide Area Network and ensures that unauthorized access to your network and data in the datacenter is prevented.
Given the role of datacenter environments within business networks, scalable and dynamic firewall setups are necessary to protect available applications and users. Therefore, selecting the right datacenter firewall is often challenging.
The distributed firewall setup within the Wanscale platform automatically scales with usage and is easily extendable with virtual “Next-Gen” solutions from providers such as Fortinet and Juniper.
This ensures that the datacenter firewalling can always be tailored to the needs, making it a future-proof investment.
Starting Point: Applications
Datacenter firewalling focuses specifically on securing network traffic within a datacenter environment and is typically used to protect applications, whereas traditional network firewalling often focuses on securing the edges of the network, such as the connection to the internet.
Datacenter firewalls are generally more advanced and offer more functionality tailored to the needs of datacenter environments.
The distributed firewall model within the Wanscale platform allows for security to be configured in a way that is optimally aligned with making all applications available.
