WatchGuard Network Security

WatchGuard Network Security includes Firebox physical, virtual, cloud, and hosted firewall options for protecting network traffic, access, and connected systems. The portfolio supports organizations operating on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments, including multi-site networks and distributed workforces.

Security Beyond Basic Firewall Controls

Firebox solutions combine firewall controls with intrusion prevention, application control, URL filtering, DNS security, anti-malware protection, VPN connectivity, SD-WAN, and HTTPS inspection. These capabilities help security teams monitor encrypted traffic, user and application activity, and network events from the perimeter to remote access connections.

Centralized Administration and Reporting

WatchGuard Cloud provides centralized configuration, policy management, monitoring, alerts, and reporting for supported Firebox appliances, access points, and security services. Administrators can use the platform to manage security policies and review activity across multiple locations from one interface.

Support for Hybrid Networks and Managed Services

The platform supports physical appliances, virtual firewalls, cloud deployments, and remote-access use cases. WatchGuard also provides licensing, multi-tenant administration, and management workflows for managed service providers and internal IT teams responsible for customer or multi-location environments.

The WatchGuard Security Portfolio

WatchGuard Network Security is part of a broader security portfolio that includes endpoint security, identity security, secure Wi-Fi, network detection and response, managed detection and response, and secure-access services. These products can be managed alongside network-security controls through WatchGuard’s unified security platform.
