Still, the research firm says the company has been slow in providing differentiating new features and in enhancing existing capabilities, and its cloud security is less mature than that of its leading competitors. Recent Developments: SonicWall recently added more than 50 new features to its SonicOS, and updated its Capture Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) service, a cloud-based multi-engine firewall sandbox, to include a new Real-Time Deep Memory Inspection engine.Īnalysts’ Take: Gartner says SonicWall is a good fit for value-conscious enterprises looking for more throughput at a reasonable price and a solid appliance that’s easy to manage. The firewalls also perform full decryption and inspection of TLS/SSL and SSH encrypted connections. Overview: The SonicWall Network Security Appliance (NSA) next-generation firewalls leverage the company’s patented single-pass Reassembly-Free Deep Packet Inspection (RFDPI) engine, which examines every byte of every packet, checking both inbound and outbound traffic simultaneously. While they share similar strengths, the biggest difference between the two is in support for cloud and virtualization technologies, where Fortinet holds a clear edge.
SonicWall’s and Fortinet’s next-generation firewalls (NGFWs) both appear on eSecurity Planet’s list of 10 top NGFW vendors, and both are highly rated by users and analysts, particularly for cost-conscious purchasers.
