Wisely built to meet all of my security needs

What differentiates Forcepoint Next Generation Firewall from other similar products?

We can now use its sophisticated analytics across our entire organization to provide value to our various divisions. I loved having an impregnable security system in our company that allowed us to create detailed risk studies that were more thorough than purposive selection and ensured total security without a single or minor flaw.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Overall security, IT risk management, security operations, and organizational data security, have all been transformed thanks to this more advanced Forcepoint Next-Generation Firewall technology. I also like this Platform because it not only helps us in endpoint and data transmission protection but also supports an examination of anomalous transactions, enabling data extraction, and improving reporting and audit rule definitions.

What do you dislike most about this product?

When the firewall loses connectivity, we must restore the initial settings, which takes time that could be spent on something more important. And their support personnel, who helped us when we were implementing, are less skilled and have a knowledge gap since they are not fully aware of their product specs.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Forcepoint Next Generation Firewall is a great and reliable security system that will astound you with its performance, capabilities, and ease with which you can create rules that meet your needs. Installing this Security Management console is really simple. And it also gives you the ability to combine a log server and a management server into a single panel to fully simplify your work.

Pros

  • Performance Enhancing
  • Efficient Service
  • Client Friendly Policies
  • Altruistic
