Recent attacks on the cyber-security infrastructure worldwide, have affected industry monoliths to jet-set startups and even security technology providers. At the backbone of every security strategy lays the absolute in software and appliance based utilities, firewalls--the component that directly monitor and filter data between internal and external networks.Firewalls have evolved by leaps and bounds over time. However, with the arrival of new infiltration methods, the firewalls need to take new form and shape, backed by cutting-edge technologies. Developments are going in next-generation firewalls to proactively address these infiltration threats and provide more holistic security architectures, reinforcing networks at every link point rather than at just the entry nodes. Systems are getting smarter, integrating technologies like deep packet inspection (DPI), intrusion prevention systems (IPS), TLS/SSL encrypted traffic inspection, website filtering, antivirus inspection, and third-party identity management in-order to provide functional security. Companies today realize that legacy silos in firewalls are not just redundant but a welcome port for cyber-predators to worm their way in. The argument today then, isn't about what the latest appliance boxes are, but in the methodology of threat analysis and reconstruction of network layouts so that these ports are plugged, creating an impregnable security model. Considering these challenges and developments, Enterprise Security Magazine is presenting a special edition on firewall. A panel of industry experts along with the editorial board of Enterprise Security Magazine have selected the frontrunners in the firewall arena.
