Popular firewalls for small-to-medium business

It makes sense that cybercriminals would go after businesses. After all, businesses see more traffic, collect tons of user data, and handle payment info. But, it also means going without cybersecurity for your business is just not an option.

Below are some of the top options out there for small and medium-sized businesses. They offer excellent features at their pricepoints, and are top choices for businesses looking to protect their internal networks and sensitive data from online threats.

We are careful about what we recommend to our customers, and with top brands like Fortinet, Meraki, Sophos, Check Point, Palo Alto, and more, it’s tough to go wrong.

The selection shown below just scratches the surface of what’s available in this huge segment of network security products. So if you have any questions, email us, or call 877-449-0458.
