Revolutionising Remote Work Security with FireCloud Internet Access

As many businesses are transiting to hybrid work environments, they require a robust security system that can address a distributed workforce without compromising safety or performance. Enter WatchGuard’s FireCloud Internet Access—an innovative firewall-as-a-service (FWaaS) solution designed to protect businesses in this new landscape.

What is FireCloud Internet Access?

FireCloud Internet Access from WatchGuard is a security solution that serves as a protective barrier for businesses operating in a hybrid work environment. It offers enterprise-grade security services similar to those provided by WatchGuard’s Firebox, but in a Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) architecture. This means that FireCloud combines networking and security functions into a single cloud-based platform, allowing for streamlined and efficient management of security across distributed networks.

Key Features and Benefits

1. Comprehensive Security at Scale: FireCloud delivers a wide range of security functionalities, such as intrusion prevention, web filtering, DNS security, and application control. Businesses can ensure that all remote access points, whether from home or remote offices, are safeguarded against threats.
2. SASE Architecture: With its SASE framework, FireCloud merges network security with WAN capabilities, offering a unified approach to managing security policies. This architecture is especially effective for organisations that use both on-premises and cloud-based applications, ensuring consistent protection regardless of employee location.
3. Seamless Deployment and Management: As a cloud-native solution, FireCloud is designed for easy deployment and management. CTS Group can quickly update and modify security settings remotely, reducing the complexity and overhead associated with traditional hardware firewalls.
4. Cost-Effective: By removing the need for on-premises hardware, FireCloud lowers capital expenditure (CapEx) costs. Meaning you can choose a subscription model that aligns with your budget and allows for financial flexibility.
5. Scalability to Meet Business Needs: Whether your business is a startup or an established one, FireCloud is scalable to fit your growth. As businesses evolve, FireCloud can easily adapt to accommodate more users, applications, and locations without sacrificing security.
