Firewalls: Why they matter and where they fit in the cloud era - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

Even in this era of remote work, Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), and solutions like Secure Service Edge (SSE) and Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), believe it or not, we still need firewalls. In this webinar, Evgeniy Kharam, cybersecurity architect and advisor, will walk you through the ins and outs of firewalls – their history, evolution, and undying relevance. Starting from the very beginning, he’ll guide you through how firewalls have grown from simple shields to complex security systems. Explore the various types of firewalls that businesses are currently employing, be they large corporations, B2B entities, or organizations deeply embedded in cloud technology. You’ll emphasize Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFWs), focusing on their critical role in protecting our digital spaces, especially as more and more of us shift to working from home. Despite the rising prominence of security solutions like SASE and SSE, Evgeniy will explain why firewalls continue to be a vital part of our defense mechanism against cyber threats. Finally, you’ll look ahead at what the future might hold for firewalls amidst rapidly advancing technology. Join industry thought leader and podcaster Evgeniy Kharam to understand why firewalls, the old cybersecurity guards, still hold their ground in today's dynamic digital landscape.
