A couple of our product gurus were guests on the CTOBOB podcast earlier this year. Ruoting Sun discusses security challenges and best practices around next-gen firewalls, web content security, and so on. Some of the topics discussed:
- Link balancing as an integral piece of network security
- The importance of next-generation firewalling as part of the perimeter
- The benefits of separate but integrated purpose-built solutions over single UTM devices
- The convergence of network security and content security and how it relates to data loss prevention (DLP)
- Building an ecosystem of multiple layers of protection
- How SMB and Enterprise needs are increasingly similar
- Multiple deployment options of Barracuda security solutions
