  • Working of remote workforce made easy
  • Security was enhanced on the data traffic shared with the vendors due to the use of VPNs
  • Inbound attacks were mostly blocked on the edge and saved a lot of resources (which could had been used in case of attacks getting successful on the application servers)

  • Once deployed and running, the firewall is very robust which means less downtime and more production with great ROI.
  • This firewall has a long life span and even if it's reaching the end of life cisco continues to support the product which means you can continue to rely on the firewall and also keep getting software updates, and security updates.
  • When managed centrally, management is improved, and policies can be changed once and applied to all firewalls in one go.
