- Cybercrime costs organizations worldwide trillions of dollars annually and continues to rise each year.
- Unified Threat Management (UTM) helps organizations simplify cybersecurity by combining firewall, intrusion prevention, web filtering, and other security functions into a single solution.
HeatShield Perimeter Firewall
A HeatShield perimeter firewall is the most important part of a comprehensive managed security plan. Without one, odds are you’re having network issues and don’t know why.

What You Need to Know
Data Security Now Requires Consistent, Vigilant Monitoring and Maintenance
With all of the threats to your company’s data and factoring in the impact of exploited network or system vulnerabilities, you simply don’t have the time to do what it takes to keep your business secure.
IT security must continually be revisited, and a managed firewall is the way to automate that process.
If you don’t have someone constantly and actively monitoring your network, you may not detect any issues until it’s too late.
What does UTM mean?
A UTM (unified threat management) managed firewall involves an approach to information security whereby a single piece of hardware provides multiple security functions. This contrasts with the traditional firewall method of having a solution for each security-related function. Using the traditional method, it’s easy to overlook important security functions.
UTM simplifies information-security management by providing a single management and reporting point rather than managing multiple complex products.
Examples of time-consuming, but necessary firewall management tasks you can offload include:
- Reviewing firewall rules
- Updating your firewall
- Patching the latest vulnerabilities discovered
- Maintaining required controls and standard certifications, such as: ISO, SSAE16, HIPAA, SOX, etc.
- Filtering web content
- Updating security licenses
What’s included in our HeatShield Perimeter Firewall?
Firewall monitoring and adjustments should be an ongoing, daily process, and some included firewall rule changes should be an integral part of managing your firewall. We install and configure an enterprise-level firewall that we actively manage.
This includes:
- Network traffic monitoring
- Content filtering management
- Intrusion prevention (IPS)
- Gateway antivirus filtering
- Application control
- Geo-IP country blocking
A HeatShield Managed Firewall is the foundation of network security.
Our HeatShield Secure firewall solution is customizable. We can manage your existing firewall or it can include a combination of the hardware, annual threat management security licenses, security license updates, hardware updates, log monitoring, no cost replacement, and some included firewall rule changes per month.
HeatShield helps professional services firms gain enterprise-grade perimeter security without having to manage firewall policies, firmware updates, threat intelligence, and ongoing monitoring internally, allowing your team to stay focused on serving clients instead of managing cybersecurity infrastructure.
