Traditional firewalls fail to provide adequate security against today’s threats. Next-generation firewalls provide greater protection, but because they are more complex, they are more difficult to evaluate. This paper summarizes the results of three independent tests conducted by Network World, ICSA Labs and NSS Labs comparing NGFW performance, cost and functionality. You’ll get insights into what to look for when evaluating next-generation firewalls. The paper also provides links to the portions of the research that have been made public. Learn why not all next-generation firewalls offer the same level of protection and why Dell™ SonicWALL™ next-generation firewalls are critical to your organization’s security.
