Why You Must Move from a Network Firewall Device to Firewall as a Service - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

The change in how organizations implement their perimeter security is exacerbated by the move to work-from-anywhere model that employees have grown accustomed to since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. According to Gartner, “by 2025, 30% of new deployments of distributed branch-office firewalls will switch to firewall as a service, up from less than 10% in 2021.” Firewall as a Service, or FWaaS, helps bring traditional network firewall capabilities into the cloud which allows organizations to extend their corporate security policies to users and devices anywhere. Transition to the cloud comes with the advantages of the as-a-service model.
