The Gen 8 firewalls deliver comprehensive security features such as intrusion prevention, VPN, application control, malware analysis, URL filtering, DNS Security, GeoIP and Botnet services, protecting the perimeter from advanced threats without becoming a bottleneck.
Gen 8 NSa firewalls drive strong security with a comprehensive solution encompassing of threat protection, centralized management, reporting and analytics, security and managed service options, Secure Service Edge (SSE) integration, and cyber warranty
Hardware
Gen 8 NSa Series, built with the latest hardware components, delivers multi-gigabit threat prevention throughput - even for encrypted traffic. Featuring a high port density, the firewall solutions support network and hardware redundancy with high availability and dual power adapters including one for redundancy.
Architecture
The Gen 8 NSa Series runs on SonicOS 8, a new operating system that delivers a modern user interface, intuitive workflows and user-first design principles. SonicOS 8 provides multiple features designed to facilitate enterpriselevel workflows. It offers easy policy configuration, zero-touch deployment and flexible management - all of which allow enterprises to improve both their security and operational efficiency
The NSa Series supports advanced networking features, such as SD-WAN, dynamic routing, layer 4-7 high availability and high-speed VPN functionality. In addition to integrating firewall and switch capabilities, the appliances provide a single-paneof-glass interface to manage both switches and access points.
Threat Protection and Security Services
Built to mitigate the advanced cyberattacks of today and tomorrow, the Gen 8 NSa Series offers access to SonicWall's advanced firewall security services, allowing you to protect your entire IT infrastructure. Solutions and services such as Capture Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) cloud-based sandboxing, patented Real-Time Deep Memory Inspection (RTDMI™) and Reassembly-Free Deep Packet Inspection (RFDPI) - for all traffic including TLS 1.3 - offer comprehensive gateway protection from most stealthy and dangerous malware, including zero-day and encrypted threats.
Simplified licensing includes Hardware Only, Advanced (APSS) and Managed Protection Security Suite (MPSS) to meet your unique needs. MPSS augments resources with managed services for firewalls.
A Cloud Secure Edge Connector integration provides secure access to their private applications behind the firewalls. Users and devices can adhere to a Zero-Trust framework for application access.
Cyber Warranty
An embedded cyber warranty is offered as part of your security services to mitigate costs of security breach, meet compliance requirements and promote peace of mind.
