What is your primary use case for WatchGuard Firebox?

The primary use case of the Firebox mainly revolves around bandwidth management, unnecessary web blocking, application control, and protection against brute force attacks. It is also implemented for load balancing, SD-WAN, and branch-to-branch connectivity from one location to another. We also use it for securing access through VPN and enforcing network security policies.

I use the solution in my company mainly for security management and also for VPN.

WatchGuard Firebox serves as the main firewall for customers' premises and data centers, a VPN server and a site-to-site VPN server. It is utilized for web filtering, and we have also deployed XDR solutions on it.

Our main use case for WatchGuard Firebox is to protect companies from Internet threats.

I used WatchGuard Firebox for small configurations and to give Active Directory access to some users so they could bypass the firewall. I also used the solution as a VPN.

We use the product for added security layers, allowing us to control and manage our network traffic effectively.

My company uses WatchGuard Firebox for the data centers that work in our office. My company has websites and web applications, because of which we use WatchGuard Firebox for system security.

We use WatchGuard Firebox for the site's firewall and VPN solution. The WatchGuard supports remote gateway and mobile VPNs. WatchGuard Firebox serves as the primary firewall for the site.

The WatchGuard Firebox is our version of a firewall. It has several use cases.

We use the solution as an internet gateway. With its help, we can establish the connection between our company's HQ and branch.

We use this for our network, mainly for the configuration of rules, such as VPN connections, remote access connections, and application web filtering. I'm a security engineer and we are customers of WatchGuard.

In Italy, small and medium-sized enterprises are prevalent, with fewer than 20 devices being used in most companies. As a result, we typically use entry-level routers such as the T25 or T45.

The utilization of the WatchGuard Firebox system is as follows: the head office, located in Barbados, has two remote offices in New York and Toronto that utilize Cisco for their VPNs, which are running to these two locations for the branch offices. The email system has three locations for redundancy, two in the UK in Purley and London, and one in Toronto, Canada. Employees who work from home, access the office through mobile VPNs.

Our primary use cases for WatchGuard Firebox are routing and VPN, including the integrated firewall. We do not use the SSO system or any other router features.

Our primary use case for this solution is a primary firewall.

My primary use case is for my network security even when I am out of the office.

We are WatchGuard partners, and we also use it on our own. We are using it for general firewall purposes and vulnerability management. We are also using some of the additional security stacks such as intrusion detection and so on. We are one version behind the latest version. We have it on-prem at the moment, but some of our customers have private cloud solutions.

We're using WatchGuard Firebox for multi-factor authentication (MFA), layer three switching, and to segregate our industrial network from our corporate network.

I mainly use Firebox for SSL, VPN, internet proxy, site-to-site tunnels, and intrusion protection.

I'm a system administrator and we have a partnership with WatchGuard.

It's mainly an internet gateway that is used for internet gateway protection and remote access.

We use Watchguard as a firewall and a VPN.

We are a solution provider and WatchGuard is one of the product lines that we implement for our customers. I am the person in the company that is responsible for WatchGuard products. We do not use this product in my organization. I'm enabling partners and providing training for them on how to use this technology and how to sell it. I assist customers with implementing PoC installations in different environments. My client that recently implemented WatchGuard Firebox is running an ERP that is used by clients that are in different countries from around the world. They are using Firebox to protect the ERP from outside threats. Essentially, they need to protect the perimeter because users come to the server from different environments. This solution protects the cloud-based server from incoming and outgoing traffic. In this regard, it acts as a web application filter for the server.

We use WatchGuard Firebox for network security in our offices.

We run education organizations. We have students and staff working on campus. We wanted to be protected within the campus as well as outside the campus. I am using WatchGuard Firebox XTM 850, and I have its latest version.

We provide the solution to our customers. It's primarily used for security.

We use them for perimeter security and also to manage virtual LANs.

It's a perimeter device and I use it as a DNS server for my domain, but I'm not the typical user for this type of device. I'm a hobbyist when it comes to this type of product and I use it in a small office environment.

We are providing our services to all WatchGuard customers in the region. 

I'm deploying the WatchGuard Firebox for many of my clients, and they all stay satisfied with the product. The primary reason as a common request from most of the users is to protect the environment from the outside network attacks. It is popular because of its security layers dependencies and its great performance. The proxy policy and packet filtering templates make it very clear while I am configuring the Firebox for customers. Also, the variety of actions that are designed per kind of packet payload are dependent on the protocol's payload.

We are using WatchGuard Firebox for defense of our internal infrastructure.

We use it in my company and for my clients as well. We sell Internet access, so we use them as a firewall to hopefully protect our clients. We work with one of our partners, who is a certified WatchGuard engineer, and have come up with a fairly good plan to get these completely fired up and working. That makes a huge difference. We're now up to the 7 Series. We've gone through WatchGuard 3 Series, 5 Series, and 6 Series. So, we've gone through several different versions over the years.

The purpose is to enhance the application control and internet access control of our company in our office and factory.

Our primary use cases are for the firewall and for limited routing for small to medium-sized businesses.

We use it to protect our web stations and service. We established a branch office VPN to our branch office. Since last month, we have added Mobile VPN tunnels to our headquarter.

It's our firewall for the internet.

We have multiple sites. We're in the wine business. Our corporate office is where we have accounting and marketing. Our executives are based there as is IT, HR, and payroll. That's where we have the big M200. We have five wineries that we support. Each of the wineries has a WatchGuard on it and we connect them with the business office VPN. We share files across our VPN and we also authenticate our users. Not all of our sites have file servers so we use the business office VPN to get them authenticated onto their machines. We also use that to go out and work on their machines if they have problems or we send files out to them and install software remotely, etc. We also have 11 tasting rooms where we sell our wine, and each of those has a smaller WatchGuard in it. We support the computers that they use in the back office of the tasting rooms. We also support their iPads and the machines that they use to print off orders and FedEx labels and to do inventory stuff. We have two hospitality sites where we will take our distributors to talk to them and educate them about the wine industry and what we're doing in the industry. We provide them with internet while they're there. Some of our people will go to these sites to do retreats and planning. We have WatchGuards there to support them so they can get back to the files they need and get authenticated. We're using a whole variety of models. We've got a couple of M200s, multiple 30s and multiple 15s. We also have about 15 of the AP120s.

It's our external firewall and VPN solution.

We just use it as a secondary WiFi device. We're a small office and we needed to set up a WiFi device for a few of our employees.

We're a hospital and we use it for developing our incoming and outgoing policies, and we also use it for VPN.

It's our perimeter firewall.

We use it to prevent any unnecessary stuff from getting into our network. It's for the usual security features. We do utilize the VPN and there are quite a few people on the VPN right now.

WatchGuard Firebox is our edge firewall. Currently, we are using the M470 and we have used many models in the past.

We have a web server on the optional network. Then, on the trusted side, we just run all our computers out through the Internet. We don't do anything too elaborate with it.

We have four locations and at every one of them we use WatchGuard. We use them as firewalls and for UTM. They provide protection in terms of detection and prevention. And we also use them for site-to-site VPN, as well as for direct connect, VPN to AWS, and to AWS using VLAN tagging.

It's our primary edge firewall at the home office. We have two M470s running Active-Passive. We have about 100 users in total here. Everything runs through the firewall, so the users run the gamut from analysts to accountants to executives.

We use it both for VPN tunnels and as a firewall. Our company runs group homes. There are 140 or so sites and employees are traveling to those sites on a daily basis. They use the VPN tunnels going back to the main office to access the file servers. We also have about 12 remote locations connected by WatchGuards on both ends to create a VPN tunnel, with SD-WAN to allow traffic to go between those two sites, both for the file servers and for the phone system.

We use this solution as an edge firewall and layer-3 routing internally.

The primary use case is protection for my network from external access. We also use it for some VPN, but mostly it's for protection. It's mixed usage on about a dozen different connections, a dozen different workstations, and access points.

It's our main firewall. We have over 120 hosts that flow through it.

It is a firewall. I have two M400s. They act as security for the Internet, like a border between us and the Internet.

We use it to keep people out and we use it for a VPN.

We use it as a firewall. It protects us from security threats and uses a VPN tunnel.

The primary use case is it is a firewall solution. One of the major selling points was that WatchGuard does adapt in real-time as new threats are discovered, and they push out fixes in real-time. A lot of our servers have been migrated to the cloud, so it is really our primary solution right now.

It's our primary firewall. It's also our UTM device, so we have multiple security layers enabled on it. We're using an M270 firewall with version 12.5.

I use it as my firewall. We are using it to filter our email.

I use it for protecting my network and for routing. Also, if my network connection goes down with CenturyLink, it automatically switches over to my Verizon cellular.

We use it for our firewall as well as for our branch office VPNs.

We really don't use the firewall too much, we use it more as a VPN. We've got several different networks that we're joining through WatchGuard.

Our primary use case is VPN connectivity between 50 locations and our headquarters.

Production business use at multiple interconnected locations.

We use them as our firewall in every location. It's extensively used and our locations for it are ever-expanding. Right now, we have 14 locations with them. We have everything from the M300 to the T50-W to the T30-W.

This device is for Unified Threat Management (UTM). Our primary uses for this solution are as a firewall, antivirus, anti-spyware, web-blocker, and APT blocker.

We are not currently using this solution. Rather, we are reselling, and I have implemented these systems. The most recent one I implemented was an M200 model that was being used as a gateway firewall to control their internet usage, primarily for URL filtering.

Our primary use case is for firewalls.

At a specific client location, we are using the WatchGuard Firebox M470 to control all of the security protocols, routing, VLANs, and traffic. We have a 1GB internet circuit coming into the M470 firewall, and SFPs going out to the Netgear M4300-96X modular switch. From this switch, it goes out to the Netgear GS110 devices through SFPs.

Intellectual Property protection for our and our clients' data. We strategize for deployments of new products into Federal and State healthcare formularies.
