WatchGuard Network Security

WatchGuard Network Security provides a well-rounded suite of network security services. We use their firewall appliance to provide edge protection and their endpoint security on our internal systems to provide an additional layer of security. The WatchGuard Network Security firewall provides intelligent security proxies with features like gateway antivirus, DDOS protection, persistent threat detection, website filtering, and detection of malicious patterns of behavior. The fine level of granular control over application-based access control is also a very welcome addition to help with issues like critical data egress. Effective support of VLANs provides us the flexibility we desire to partition our internal networks. The management interfaces are excellent and help make complicated configurations much easier to track and understand. Clearly, a lot of thought has gone into the engineering of these systems. The endpoint protection is centrally managed via a cloud interface that lets us have multiple profiles that can be assigned on a per-device basis. Someone in engineering can have an endpoint profile that's different from someone in shipping, for example. A nicely integrated system designed to solve sticky problems easily.

We have used Watchguard Network Security as the main firewall of the hospital for more than 10 years. We have implemented security policies such as HTTP-HTTPS-Proxys, SMTP-Proxys, etc. We believe you were one of the first manufacturers to become aware of the importance of APT Blocker protection. In addition, we also use it as access and control of VPNs.

We are a WatchGuard partner and have been for more than a decade, where possible we always suggest and use the WatchGuard network security devices, primarily Firewall appliances for our client networks. We find that WatchGuard offer a complete solution to network security which extends to cover endpoint devices also.

We use Watchguard firewalls with total security on all of our location. I am very satisfied with the safety and security of Watchguard firewall.

I use WatchGuard Network Security in my office and with many clients. The Zero Trust principle gives us high security. Sometimes harmless programs or websites are blocked. Via the central console, I can quickly unblock them.
