The global cyber threat landscape continues to become a concern for organizations, with the number of reported attacks growing consistently. These details are from the Check Point 2024 Cyber Security Report , which paints a combination of grim prospects and optimism. One area that merits attention is software-defined WAN or SD-WAN.
Firewalls have come a long way from their humble beginnings of assessing network traffic based on appearance alone. Here are six predictions for the future of the firewall. For example, a typical NGFW now may be equipped with firewalling, SD-WAN, a Wi-Fi controller for SD-Branch, an Ethernet controller, and zero-trust functionality.
As more countries, companies and consumers adopt 5G, weve seen more news reports of nation-state threat actor groups exploiting 5G and causing havoc.

For some that means getting a head start in filling this year’s most in-demand roles, which range from data-focused to security-related positions, according to Robert Half Technology’s 2023 IT salary report. Recruiting in the tech industry remains strong, according to the report.
Cato Networks is a leading provider of secure access service edge (SASE), an enterprise networking and security unified cloud-centered service that converges SD-WAN, a cloud network, and security service edge (SSE) functions, including firewall as a service (FWaaS), a secure web gateway, zero trust network access, and more.
Another component of segmentation is initializing a default-deny access-control list (ACL), which can be done at the firewall level. Some examples of segmentation and ACL firewall configurations can be found in CIS Benchmarks for Cisco, Juniper Networks, and Palo Alto Networks products. According to U.S.
Full Report. Next Generation Firewalls (NGFW) and Firewalls as a Service (FWaas). Firewall interfaces are configured into connect network segments into security zones. SD-WAN connects to cloud providers and newer types of endpoints. SD-WAN connects to cloud providers and newer types of endpoints.

Firewall configured to drop packets (all ICMP is dropped). Since we are focused on the cloud in this article, we find that SNMP is great for LANs and WANs, but we can’t use it to see inside devices within the cloud. The log generated by the trace reports on each router in the path as well as any corresponding packet loss.
IT’s role is to implement tools that serve business needs: Firewalls serve to protect and control access, collaboration tools enable better project efficiency and faster time to market, etc. Ben Woo says data should only be encrypted while traversing outside the WAN, not inside the WAN. Isn’t the WAN Connected to the Cloud?
