Data Center Firewall
Common IT Security Challenges
• Does my network security protect my IT environment and
sensitive data and meet the regulatory compliances?
• How do I keep my cloud based servers,
IT assets and MPLS network protected
from malicious intruders and malware?
• How can I lower or eliminate the CAPEX
and OPEX of deploying and managing
multiple firewall devices at all my
locations?
• How do I get my limited IT staff refocused on strategic revenue
generating initiatives?

Security & Compliance Issues are Critical
and Growing
Approximately 80 percent of
small businesses that
experience a data breach go
bankrupt or suffer severe
financial losses within two
years of a security breach.

93% of companies that have
lost their data center for 10
days or more have filed for
bankruptcy within one year.

acquisition activities, reputation losses and diminished goodwill
• $148M – cost of Target breach and ousted CEO (Forbes)

an SMB to as much as $17M for an enterprise firm (IDC)
