WHY OUR CLOUD FIREWALL
NordLayer’s Cloud Firewall advantages

Scalability, availability, flexibility
Because a cloud firewall does not contain any hardware, it can easily adapt to the changing needs of the business it’s protecting and grow with it.

Simplified operations
A cloud-based firewall service can easily integrate into existing hybrid cloud environments and makes it very simple to create and apply firewall rules. You only need to apply a few rules to the gateway instead of managing the entire company network.

Automatic updates
Zero Trust Network Access solutions offer secure remote access, ensuring your remote workforce stays protected in a hybrid security environment. This framework seamlessly adapts to various locations and devices, enabling rapid deployment and precise access control for all connections.
Smart security. No hardware. Instant protection.
OUR PRICING
Cloud Firewalls (FWaaS) vs Traditional Firewalls
Back in 2020, Gartner® projected that by 2025, 30% of new distributed branch office firewall deployments would switch to FWaaS, up from less than 5% in 2020. Based on this, we can expect FWaaS to become more popular than traditional network firewalls in the future. The schema below will provide a better understanding of the differences between these two solutions.
Cloud Firewalls (FWaaS)
Very easy to set up, as there are no physical components Effortless scalability Vendor handles all maintenance Dynamic, risk-based security policies follow your users everywhere without a complicated matrix of policy and network configurations
Traditional Firewalls
May require technical expertise to set up Requires additional hardware and deployment in order to scale IT department responsible for maintenance Inconsistent firewall policies that do not follow users

Frequently asked questions
No. Firewall-as-a-Service (FWaaS) and cloud firewall describe the same service and can be used interchangeably.
Multiple cloud deployments can be protected at once (as long as NordLayer supports each cloud).
You have almost limitless options when it comes to configuring cloud firewalls and what they protect. You may design a firewall to solely cover one particular virtual server group or even just one server. In addition to virtual servers, the firewall may also be micro-segmented with rules for certain applications or user roles.
