Top 6 Selection Factors for a Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) for Cloud Environments
Effective cloud security demands solutions, controls, and countermeasures
that are created for the cloud. After all, the cloud exposes digital assets to
different kinds of risk from those hosted on traditional on-premises infra-

adds threat intelligence, application awareness, and advanced threat protec-
tion, among other features, to cloud security capabilities.
This paper explores the selection factors that prospective NGFW virtu-
al appliance buyers should consider when choosing a solution for cloud
environments. It is based on the experiences of real users of the Fortinet
FortiGate-VM NGFW, as described on PeerSpot.
