Why It's Time to Upgrade to a Next-Generation Firewall

Eric Crutchlow, Sr. Product Manager Dell SonicWALL
Distributed networks face the ongoing challenge of securing a continually evolving network perimeter. As threats have evolved to exploit the shifting lines of defense, companies have responded by adding additional layers of security. This need for multiple layers of security has placed an enormous strain on IT professionals, increasing their workload through the management of multiple consoles and security devices.

Is your firewall capable of handling the growing demands of your business?

Many organizations are now migrating to Next-Generation Firewall solutions to reduce complexity, consolidate functionality and increase employee productivity. In fact, analysts predict that by the year-end 2014, 60% of new purchases will be Next-Generation Firewalls.

Find out what is driving this phenomenon and you can benefit by these new solutions by attending the Web seminar:

  • By 2014, 60% of global companies are expected to pilot, deploy or expand their BYOD programs (RainKing). As BYOD has become a fixture in the workplace, with 72% of employees clamoring to have their personal devices work-enabled, the IT industry has watched as the familiar “perimeter" model has become untenable. Data is going to more places, and ending up on a wider variety of devices, than ever before. A new model for protecting data has become a necessity. Organizations have tried to do so in a multitude of ways: extending policies to cover mobile devices, monitoring usage, MDM solutions, and even NAC; all have been methods used to try and create the most stable environment for mobile technology. Let Integralis security expert Mike Gabriel explain how to best balance mobile productivity and security in this Security Talks installment.

    Why Attend?

    1.Discover how your peers are trying to protect mobile data.
    2.See how the perimeter is being sculpted (or not) by the IT industry.
    3.Find out what the future holds for BYOD in the workplace.

  • Over the years true MSPs have had to work diligently to differentiate themselves from companies that are at best, not true MSPs and at worst, are shady fly-by-night operators. This is where the Unified Certification Standard or (UCS) for Cloud & Managed Service Providers comes in.

    The UCS was created by a team of dedicated MSPs to address the shortfalls of existing standards like ISO 27001, ITIL, CoBIT, SSAE 16, which were never intended for managed services organizations and offered little in the way of consumer protection.

    CASE IN POINT: Many MSPs do NOT fail because of technical deficiencies, but due to financial risk. Because of this, customers have very little insight into the service provider's business practices and financial strengths and capabilities.

    Attend this webcast and you will hear from real MSP executives on how the UCS certification and audit has helped them to:

    - Win new business
    - Provide needed transparency to customers
    - Achieve compliance objectives
    - Quickly develop trust with customers and prospects
    - Provide documentation on how those MSPs deliver their services
    - And much more...

    Both Cloud and Managed Service Providers should attend this webcast and at least begin to follow the standards necessary to achieve managed services and cloud computing excellence.

  • Most SMB's use a single point product for each of the different perceived security threats. This has worked in the past, but a far better approach is layering multiple products in a stouter defense.

  • APIs are a hot topic in all sectors of IT - they have gone from being niche solutions provided by big players like Amazon and Google, to being almost as ubiquitous as corporate websites. Ad hoc API development & evangelism without a formal program can leave real revenue on the table, can unintentionally leak sensitive data, and can tarnish the corporate brand with the development community. Today, developers and partners expect to be engaged with first class API programs, while businesses expect real insights to know which APIs are profitable and which APIs to bring to market next. In this webinar, Intel & Mashery outline the baseline enterprise pillars for constructing a first class API program. Learn from CapitalOne how they strategized to build an API program grounded in core business objectives. All attendees to receive a new Mobile API Buyers Guide that presents how to optimize APIs for mobile apps.
