It's a fact - businesses are migrating services from on-premises servers into the cloud. Email servers, web servers, customer relationship management systems (CRMs), and file storage are migrating to cloud services. With so much sensitive data moving to the cloud, security is essential. WatchGuard's Firebox Cloud allows network administrators to extend their security perimeter to protect servers running in public cloud environments.

While cloud service providers are responsible for the security of the cloud, protecting your sensitive data as it moves to and from the cloud falls to you. Under this shared responsibility model, it is crucial that administrators take every step possible to defend their data and deflect cyber criminals. WatchGuard Firebox Cloud brings the protection of WatchGuard's leading Firebox® Unified Threat Management (UTM) appliances to public cloud environments. Firebox Cloud can quickly and easily be deployed to protect servers in a public cloud from attacks such as botnets, cross-site scripting, SQL injection attempts, and other intrusion vectors.

BUILT FOR THE CLOUD ENVIRONMENT

Companies that move their applications and services to public cloud services need to provide the same level of security that they provide on premises. WatchGuard Firebox Cloud provides UTM security services for detecting attacks, malware, and web content filtering that are not available from Cloud Providers. Firebox Cloud also simplifies the process of establishing secure connections to your public cloud environment by enabling WatchGuard-to-WatchGuard VPN tunnels.

EXTENDING THE WATCHGUARD SECURITY PERIMETER

Small-to-midsize businesses and distributed enterprises with portions of their infrastructure running in the cloud can streamline their configuration and maintenance efforts by extending their security perimeter with Firebox Cloud. Using Firebox Cloud in conjunction with physical Firebox appliances eliminates the need to become familiar with a separate product line to protect a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC).

BIG DATA VISIBILITY

WatchGuard Firebox Cloud is completely compatible with WatchGuard Dimension, a cloudready network security visibility solution that comes standard with WatchGuard's flagship Unified Threat Management and Next Generation Firewall platform. Dimension provides a suite of big data visibility and reporting tools that instantly identify and distill key security issues and trends, and deliver actionable insights to set meaningful security policies across all of your environments.
