Legacy NGFWs Create Risk and Drive Up Costs

As encrypted traffic and hybrid environments become the norm, legacy NGFWs struggle to deliver the protection organizations need.

Apps

Performance Degradation

Existing NGFWs struggle to maintain performance with TLS inspection, IPS, and malware prevention enabled, forcing tradeoffs between protection and user experience.

Apps

Evolving Threats

Today's attacks use evasion techniques, encrypted C2 channels, and AI-enabled methods that legacy firewalls were never designed to handle. Legacy firewalls also can’t secure GenAI usage.

Apps

Operational Complexity

Multiple firewall platforms across on-site and cloud environments drive up operational overhead. New licensing models and hardware refreshes raise TCO without architectural improvement.

Now is the Time to Modernize

Firewall refresh cycles are a strategic opportunity to modernize security architecture instead of
simply replacing hardware with the same approach.

~30%

of enterprise firewall rules are unused, adding complexity without protection-*

49%

of security admins struggle with firewall interoperability issues

39%

of organizations still run legacy firewalls without APIs for centralized management
