Operational Impact
The customer is currently realizing substantial benefits since the implementation of Forcepoint NGFW. Using improved visibility and logging capabilities, the customer can more quickly and accurately identify and take action on potential threats. | |
Thanks to solution’s cluster deployment, operating system updates that used to take forty minutes (on average) are now completed in as little as one minute and zero downtime. | |
Forcepoint NGFWs with intrusion prevention are intercepting more threats than the customer’s previous solution, further reducing the time spent on mitigation. | |
Quantitative Benefit
One cost benefit can be seen via the solution’s centralized management, which allows the customer to spend much less time managing firewalls, cutting their total cost of ownership (TCO) down by a significant dollar amount. | |
Another area of cost benefits is due to the solution’s SD-WAN functionality, which allowed the customer to decommission their redundant MPLS lines and replace them with low-cost broadband from local ISPs. As a result, the customer has experienced a drastic cost reduction with regard to their network connections. | |
