SEATTLE, March 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — WatchGuard\u00ae Technologies<\/a>, a global leader in unified cybersecurity, today announced the launch of FireCloud Internet Access<\/a>, the first in a new family of hybrid secure access service edge (SASE) products. FireCloud uniquely meets the needs of hybrid organizations and WatchGuard\u2019s partners by delivering consistency across Fireboxes and FireCloud with nearly identical configurations and no learning curve.<\/p>\n

Managing real-world cybersecurity means managing hybrid networks that combine traditional on-premises and Cloud\/firewall-as-a-service (FWaaS) environments. Many vendors providing SASE solutions overlook the importance of integrated on-premises environments, which diminishes the value of deploying a SASE solution. When a SASE solution does not take these environments into account, they end up creating isolated systems that are managed separately, leading to unnecessary complexity and overhead.<\/p>\n

FireCloud Internet Access is the right answer for hybrid environments because it integrates with WatchGuard Cloud and shares unified policy management with Firebox, combining firewall-as-a-service (FWaaS) and secure web gateway (SWG) to deliver robust protection without complexity. WatchGuard enables managed service providers (MSPs) to deliver a valuable SASE solution to their clients with an adoption model that fits their hybrid environments. This solution is part of the WatchGuard Unified Security Platform\u00ae architecture, which includes Identity, Network, and Endpoint security components, unified management in the WatchGuard Cloud, and a common installation framework for WatchGuard endpoints.<\/p>\n

\u201cFireCloud Internet Access provides real security for real-world challenges that today’s businesses face. As remote and distributed work environments evolve and companies transition to the Cloud, the range of threat surfaces and location of endpoints that need protection has expanded,\u201d said Andrew Young, chief product officer at WatchGuard. \u201cExisting solutions don\u2019t allow security teams to seamlessly manage their network security in concert with their SASE deployments, creating security gaps and management complexities. To overcome these limitations, we have developed a new hybrid SASE approach which begins with FireCloud Internet Access.\u201d<\/p>\n

The FireCloud Internet Access Difference:\u00a0<\/strong>In addition to being uniquely designed for hybrid Cloud\/on-premises environments, FireCloud Internet Access also promises ease of deployment, flexible and scalable licensing and pricing, and integration into WatchGuard\u2019s threat detection and response platform.<\/p>\n
