Software as a service (SaaS), Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), and Platform as a Service (PaaS) are just a few of the now commonplace solutions that have been born through the cloud. Rather than forcing companies to expend resources on deploying and maintaining certain IT functions, “as-a-service” products can be leveraged as subscriptions and hosted off-premises in a provider’s data center or virtual environment.

The iboss Distributed Gateway Platform is the first and only Web Gateway as a Service that provides predictable pricing and can be tailored to the needs of almost any network configuration. Read this whitepaper to learn how your company can benefit from a Web Gateway as a Service.

The conversation around the cloud has been booming of late, with the topic showing up everywhere from IT back offices to Fortune 500 C-Suites. Despite cloud's ubiquity, it remains a somewhat abstract concept for many users, a lot of whom don't understand that there isn't just one single cloud - and, for that matter, that not all clouds are created equal.

• The benefits of cloud cybersecurity
• The difference between multi-tenant cloud and non-shared cloud environments
• How to leverage the power of the cloud in a non-shared manner

As the cybersecurity threat landscape evolved over the past 20-plus years, the firewalls originally employed by IT the world over grew increasingly ineffective at blocking bad actors from accessing network data. Next-generation firewalls (NGFWs) aims to fill those gaps, but do they really provide an all-encompassing solution for network security? And how do they differ from secure web gateways (SWGs) in their ability to evaluate data entering and leaving the network?

Read this white paper to learn:

• What are the characteristic features of NGFWs, and how far do they go in securing the network perimeter?
• Both NGFWs and secure web gateways (SGWs) greet traffic entering and leaving the network – so what’s the difference?
• Where do NGFWs feature in a layered cybersecurity strategy, and what additional defenses need to be put in place on either side of the network perimeter to assure the best defense?

Choosing the right cybersecurity solution is challenging. You need to protect your organization from increasingly sophisticated threats, but you don't want to consume valuable IT resources with complex management and reporting requirements. In a crowded vendor landscape, how do you find the most effective security for your organization?
