The need for threat-focused next-generation firewalls (NGFWs) that can effectively mitigate risks that traditional unified threat management (UTM) and point solutions cannot, is highlighted by numerous studies, including one from Cisco that reported that every organization should assume it has been hacked.

Cisco threat researchers found malicious traffic was visible on 100 percent of the corporate networks that they observed, with evidence that adversaries had often penetrated those networks and were frequently operating undetected over a long period.

Significant security challenges are not only faced by large enterprises, but every organization, regardless of its size. This white paper can help you confirm that your small business or distributed enterprise needs to invest in an effective NGFW solution.
