High Availability that Eliminates Network Downtime

Forcepoint NGFW is designed from the ground up to always stay on, even when bad things happen. Resilience (the ability to handle machines going offline or cables getting cut) is built in at every level: firewalls, networks and management. Forcepoint NGFW eliminates downtime to improve your business continuity and keep the business running smoothly.

  • Advanced Firewall Clustering that Stays Running
    Deploy Forcepoint NGFWs together in groups (not just pairs) called clusters to keep the network running even if there’s a service interruption in any of the individual devices. You can even mix different models together to extend the lifetime of your current devices.
  • Zero-Downtime Updates & Software Upgrades
    With Forcepoint NGFW, update firewall security policies without going offline, respond immediately to security incidents without compromising connectivity, and upgrade device software seamlessly – without waiting for service windows or dropping any packets.
  • Multi-ISP Secure SD-WAN Clustering
    Forcepoint is one of the pioneers in clustering different network links together. Multi-Link VPN technology makes it easy to simultaneously mix commercial broadband links and dedicated leased lines to eliminate single points of failure, reduce networking costs, increase capacity, and improve quality of service.
  • Resilient Management
    Forcepoint NGFW Security Management Center (SMC) enables you to use multiple servers together to continue administering your network and investigating incidents, even if the primary server goes offline.
