Use Cases and Deployment Scope
It's being used for our mobile apps we used and for the remote users we have. We used this as the secure gateway to protect the apps' integrity as well as the data going from the hospital campus to the users remotely as well as the ones in-house.
Pros and Cons
  • Provides full-spectrum security DOD-level protection; which is a big help for us for security of our data.
  • Ease of setup on her firewall for security for VPN users.
  • Configuration is easy to do and use for our security team with its features and pictures of instruction.
  • More innovative solutions for sniffing more on the network.
  • Have the advanced ability to close off ports when they could be getting tested from hackers for intrusion.
Likelihood to Recommend
Good in providing threat protection especially our emails that come in from the outside. Capturing potential spam and malware from emails from outside our network has been good. Keeps us alert for anything coming in from the outside that could compromise our network.
Most Important Features
  • DOD-level protection.
  • Its readiness to secure our data and network lines.
  • Built-in templates are easy to use and good to follow to make them our own to work how we do things.
Return on Investment
  • Has been good in lessening threats from the outside.
  • Ease of use for our security team to be able to use templates and configure to our specs.
  • Being able to set as many rules as you like is a big plus.
Alternatives Considered
Using the phishing and impersonation tool to rule out and capture phishing emails is good one we are using.
