FIREWALL DEPLOYMENT
STRATEGIES IN AWS AND AZURE

Take a look at various Cloud Firewall Deployment Strategies
and why one might be better than another

Network Security is all about visibility, segmentation, and control. In cloud computing today, there are several technologies to accomplish these requirements including both native and third-party virtual appliances. Let’s navigate some of the reference architectures and a few the challenges associated with deploying a Firewall in the top two cloud providers, Amazon Web Service (AWS) & Microsoft Azure.

While there’re many options when deploying a Firewall, we will first discuss some of the high availability options and then look into centralizing Firewall deployment into a Hub and Spoke layout. We will also explore a more recently added feature in AWS leveraging Gateway Load Balancer (GWLB), released in November 2020.

HERE’S WHAT WE’LL FOCUS ON
DURING THE WEBINAR:

  • Why deploy a firewall in the cloud?
  • Explore common high availability and scaling options
  • Discuss some of the networking nuances between AWS and Azure compared to traditional networking.
  • Review strategies to deploy a third-party firewall regarding High Availability and Scaling
  • Look at a Hub and Spoke layout and understand how traffic can be directed to the firewall for both visibility and control
  • Have a brief discussion on both sizing and price comparison (Fortinet), leveraging PAYG versus BYOL.
