Cloud Firewall

Despite the ever-evolving digital landscape, the perimeter firewall remains an important element of any business’ security strategy. It provides a vital outer layer of defense against malicious threats, blocking out any unwanted or unfamiliar traffic. It is also an integral part of a multi-layered security system, offering superior protection against cyberattacks.

Despite the ever-evolving digital landscape, the perimeter firewall remains an important element of any business’ security strategy. It provides a vital outer layer of defense against malicious threats, blocking out any unwanted or unfamiliar traffic. It is also an integral part of a multi-layered security system, offering superior protection against cyberattacks. With the adoption of public cloud, SASE, and Zero Trust models, traditional firewall strategies have been augmented to meet the needs of modern networks. As such, firewalls remain an important tool in protecting your organisation and is an essential part of any business’ security strategy.

Cello's managed cloud firewall solution provides secure, best practice protection for your virtual environment and internet traffic. With our team of highly skilled Engineers, you can reduce the need for specialised FTE while still getting the best-of-breed solutions for securing applications and data stored in the cloud. Our service helps to reduce overheads while offering top-notch security, giving you peace of mind that your data is safe and secure.

Why do I need a Managed Firewall?

A managed firewall service provides enhanced threat management, allowing security experts to monitor your firewall and mitigate any potential threats. It also provides routine traffic analysis, with regular reports sent to keep you up-to-date on network traffic patterns. Moreover, a managed firewall solution leverages economies of scale to offer companies the cybersecurity they need, at a price they can afford. Lastly, managed firewalls provide multiple layers of security that are maintained entirely off-site, giving you added peace of mind.

About Cello’s cloud firewall solution

To create a truly robust cloud firewall, the architecture needs to have considered all systems, platforms and applications a business uses. A solution is often so particular that organisations simply opt to have this built and managed internally which comes with a significant ongoing investment and usually a single point of failure within the IT Team. 

Cello are depended on by some of New Zealand’s largest organisations to deliver and maintain cloud firewalls. We provide the data centre and ongoing management so internal teams don't have to - freeing up their resources on other important BAU jobs.

Benefits of Cello’s Cloud Firewall

We have a team of Network Operations Centre engineers who monitor firewalls 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. If there’s an issue to address or update to install, we’re on it proactively and quickly. 

An outsourced, but dedicated firewall

The Cello Cloud Firewall is dedicated to the specific organisation, meaning businesses don’t share hardware with other Cello clients. This keeps the firewall configured to specific requirements and protects the business.

Cello’s cloud firewall is designed to integrate with our other smart stack components, as well as with the business’ systems and processes.
