Why Does Your Business Need a Firewall?

Many companies rely on the router supplied by their internet provider and antivirus software on each computer, assuming that's enough. But today's cyber threats target the network itself, and a single breach can halt work or expose customer data.

What is a firewall?

A firewall is a device that sits between your company network and the internet. It inspects incoming and outgoing traffic and allows or blocks connections according to defined security rules.

What does it do for your business?

• Protects the network from intrusion attempts and cyber threats.
• Controls internet use and blocks unwanted websites and applications.
• Manages bandwidth and prioritizes business-critical applications.
• Provides secure remote access for staff and connects branches via VPN.
• Gives you reports and visibility into what happens on your network.

Is my company too small for this?

Small and medium businesses are often easier targets because they are less protected. Firewalls come in different capacities and price ranges for every company size; what matters is choosing the right device and configuring it correctly.
