Perimeter Defense
Gateway defenses, commonly called Firewalls, have evolved significantly in the past decade to include Next-Gen Firewalls or Universal Threat Management (UTM) appliances. Their purpose, protect the gateway to your internal network from the internet. This is a crucial layer of defense. But just having a firewall in place isn’t nearly enough. Because the threat horizon constantly changes, the bad actors continue to develop ingenious methods of penetrating the gateway and thus an improperly configured firewall is an easy way in.
Techspert’s stance is to start at zero. Nothing comes in and nothing goes out. We then allow inbound and outbound, ONLY what is necessary to run your business. All other traffic is forbiden, period.
In order to provide the necessary protection at the gateway, Techspert has partnered with WatchGuard Technologies for over 15 years and utilize their appliances as our time-tested crucial layer of perimeter support.
