Is NGFW Dead? The Rise of FWaaS and Why - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

Webinar Overview Legacy next-gen firewall (NGFW) appliances were built for a different era—one with static perimeters and on-prem networks. But today’s enterprises operate in a perimeterless world, where cloud adoption is accelerating, hybrid work is the norm, and IT complexity keeps growing. These physical NGFWs create constraints, driving up operational overhead while limiting flexibility and scalability. To keep pace with evolving business demands and sophisticated threats, enterprises need cloud agility—freeing themselves from hardware dependencies, security gaps, and heavy upfront costs. Firewall-as-a-Service (FWaaS) removes these limitations with a cloud-native approach. It eliminates physical firewall appliances, centralizes security policy enforcement, and streamlines global security management—reducing IT burden and cost while ensuring consistent protection everywhere. What you’ll learn in our webinar: The case for agility over appliances: Why today’s cloud-first enterprise strategies and hybrid workforce needs are making physical NGFWs obsolete. Improving operational efficiency for today’s IT: How FWaaS eliminates IT burdens, reduces costs, and simplifies management. Scalability, security, and agility: How FWaaS serves as a gateway to full SASE adoption, enabling seamless growth and comprehensive security. Real-world examples: Hear how leading enterprises transformed their security postures by replacing legacy hardware with Cato’s cloud-native FWaaS.
