7 things Your Next-Gen SWG and Firewall should Do

For many organizations, work looks very different today than it did just a few years ago.

More and more of their key applications – from Office 365 and Google Workspace to Slack and Zoom – are on the internet rather than in their private network. And employees are highly dispersed, in many cases spending more time working outside of the office than in it.

This creates new challenges for IT teams – and leaves legacy tools struggling to keep up.

A traditional secure web gateway (SWG) or firewall solution assumes all traffic, even from virtual private networks (VPNs), will be routed back to the office’s data center first.
