Firewalls
Secure the connection between your business and the internet.
A fast internet connection still needs to be controlled and protected. ISP COZA managed firewall solutions help businesses secure network access, manage internet traffic, connect sites and remote users, and improve visibility at the edge of the network.
Firewalls built around your requirements.
The firewall service can be supplied as part of a new connectivity deployment or introduced into an existing business network. The exact hardware, licensing and security features should be matched to the number of users, internet capacity, applications and security requirements.

Frequently asked questions
Why does my business need a managed firewall?
A managed firewall gives the business a controlled security boundary and a technical team responsible for the configuration. It is especially useful where the business does not have dedicated network-security resources internally.
Can the firewall manage two internet connections?
Yes. Suitable firewalls can manage multiple WAN links and be configured for failover or other routing policies. The design depends on the selected equipment and the behaviour required.
Can you connect our branches securely?
Site-to-site VPNs can connect supported branch environments securely over IP networks. For more complex multi-site requirements, the firewall design can form part of a wider managed network or SD-WAN solution.
Do security subscriptions need to be renewed?
Many next-generation security features depend on active vendor licences or subscriptions. Renewal requirements and what is included should be clearly shown in the quotation.
