The Dirty Secrets of Network Firewalls
Results of an independent survey of 2,700 IT Managers in 10 countries, in organizations of 100-5000 users.
Dirty Secret 1: Firewalls are failing to deliver the protection organizations need
- 16 infected devices per month, on average
- No. 1 desired firewall improvement is better protection
Dirty Secret 2: IT managers can’t tell you how 45% of their bandwidth is consumed
- 45% network traffic is going unidentified.
- This leads to multiple areas of concern, including security, productivity, accountability, legal liability and compliance, and ROI.
Dirty Secret 3: Ineffective firewalls are costing you time and money
- 3.3 hours — average time taken to identify, isolate and remediate infected machines
- 7 days — time lost every month fixing infected devices
What IT managers want from their firewalls:
- 79% better protection
- 85% better visibility
- 99% automatic isolation of infected devices
