Firewall Installation is one of the first steps in protecting sensitive private information from un-authorized access. A firewall should be placed between your Internet connection and your private computer and network equipment. Firewall features vary amongst the major firewall systems.  Network Essentials supports Enterprise class firewalls like Fortinet, Juniper, Sonicwall, Checkpoint, Palo Alto, and Cisco.  All Enterprise class firewall systems are able to monitor traffic coming in from and going out to the Internet, filtering traffic based on a variety of methods. Access rules are then created to allow or deny access to secure the private network resources. System functionality, monitoring and alerting may be handled different by each vendor.  Consulting with Network Essentials trained Security Experts will help you determine the level of needed security to protect your company while still allowing employees to work efficiently.
