We\u2019d like to introduce our Technology of the Month:\u00a0Hosted Firewall and Content Filtering<\/a><\/span>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Everyone needs to block unauthorized network access, inappropriate web content, and infected files and malware, and there IS a better and more secure way to do it.<\/p>\n

\"Untitled1\"Being that most firewall breaches are caused by bad hardware configurations and user-written policies, most would agree that hosting this service would make total sense\u2026the same way that using a hosted data center eliminates a lot of IT problems.<\/p>\n

While there will be changes to your firewall routine, I promise you they will be for the better\u2026<\/p>\n

A lot of guys like to mock the fact that \u201ccloud firewall\u201d is not literally in the cloud. That is true and that\u2019s why we prefer the more accurate term hosted firewall<\/a><\/span>. Basically, this comes down to the firewall hardware being housed in the MPLS<\/a><\/span> provider\u2019s data center, where all of the Internet circuits terminate. Whatever you want to call it, the safety and security of your firewall defense system is being handed off to a specialized entity who can do it way more efficiently than you can 9 times out of 10.<\/p>\n

\"Untitled2\"<\/a>Maybe you are used to tweaking your hardware on a daily basis and are concerned with distancing yourself from that level of control. Most providers will give you access to the unit, in addition to doing the programming for you. If you want to make changes, all you\u2019ll need to do is open a ticket. If you are used to constantly making changes to your firewall, it will make sense to hookup with a provider that is flexible and responsive to your updates, and believe me, these do exist!<\/p>\n

More on reducing cost management; if you\u2019re over buying new hardware every couple of years, finding a provider that can keep it constantly up to date for you at an enterprise level can save you a lot of money. This being said, any complaints about high monthly or yearly costs can be weighed with the fact that you aren\u2019t going to have to sink into the treasury to buy a huge piece of hardware that\u2019s going to be outdated and worthless in a year or two.<\/p>\n

\"Untitled3\"<\/a>Most importantly, once everything is completely configured, you won\u2019t notice any difference than if your firewall was sitting there in your office, except better levels of security and fewer breaches. If you\u2019d like to get some more piece of mind on hosting your firewall and would maybe like to take a look at a few possible providers, let us know…<\/p>\n
