Client Firewall

It’s time to rethink the way you defend your enterprise network. New vulnerabilities are giving attackers the ability to circumvent the corporate firewall. One countermeasure that’s proving effective in mitigating these vulnerabilities is the client firewall.

For a long time, properly configured corporate firewalls have been an integral part of defense-in-depth security. They still are. However, technological advancements like cloud computing and mobile have introduced new weaknesses.

Practices like BYOD and telecommuting are enabling employees to work with the same devices in and out of the corporate network. But when those devices are used outside the corporate firewall, they can be exposed to threats. As soon as the devices are brought back into the workplace, the same threats can then propagate into the network.

A client firewall can:

• Block malicious inbound and outbound traffic
• Perform web filtering
• Detect and act on malware
• Carry out other threat mitigation tasks

The client firewalls we’re referring to are not stand-alone solutions. They’re part of enterprise-class next generation firewalls and other state-of-the-art network security solutions.
