About Forcepoint Ngfw

Forcepoint NGFW was developed as part of Forcepoint's broader cybersecurity portfolio. The technology originated from Stonesoft, a company acquired by McAfee in 2013, which later became part of Forcepoint in 2016. It was created to address the evolving threat landscape by providing advanced firewall capabilities, intrusion prevention, and centralized management to protect enterprise networks.

Forcepoint NGFW's strengths include advanced threat detection, centralized management, and scalability. Weaknesses may involve complexity in initial setup and higher costs compared to basic firewalls. Competitors include Palo Alto Networks, Cisco Firepower, Check Point, and Fortinet.
