Que diferencia hay entre un firewall tradicional y un NGFW como FortiGate?

Un firewall tradicional solo filtra por puertos e IPs. Un NGFW como FortiGate inspecciona el contenido del trafico incluso cifrado, controla aplicaciones especificas, previene intrusos activamente y mitiga ataques DDoS en multiples capas.

Puedo migrar mi FortiGate actual a gestion de Metamedia Cloud Services?

Si. Empezamos con una auditoria de su configuracion actual, corregimos brechas criticas y asumimos la gestion mensual bajo SLA sin necesidad de reemplazar el equipo si aun es valido.

Que es la mitigacion DDoS en capa 7?

Es la proteccion contra ataques que imitan trafico HTTP/HTTPS legitimo para saturar su aplicacion web, a diferencia de los ataques mas simples de capa 3/4 que saturan el ancho de banda.

Necesito FortiSIEM si ya tengo FortiGate?

FortiGate protege el perimetro. FortiSIEM correlaciona eventos de todos sus dispositivos, de cualquier marca, para detectar patrones de ataque complejos que un solo firewall no puede ver por si solo.

Symptoms

Do any of these situations sound familiar to you?

/01

A firewall that only filters ports—when today's threats have been evading that basic control for more than a decade

/02

No one checks the security logs until after an incident has already occurred.

/03

Remote users connecting without an encrypted VPN or two-factor authentication

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a traditional firewall and an NGFW like FortiGate?

A traditional firewall only filters based on ports and IP addresses. An NGFW like FortiGate inspects the content of traffic—even encrypted traffic—monitors specific applications, actively prevents intrusions, and mitigates DDoS attacks across multiple layers.

Can I migrate my current FortiGate to Metamedia Cloud Services management?

Yes. We start by auditing your current configuration, fix critical vulnerabilities, and take over monthly management under an SLA without needing to replace the equipment if it is still functional.

What is Layer 7 DDoS mitigation?

It provides protection against attacks that mimic legitimate HTTP/HTTPS traffic to overwhelm your web application, unlike simpler Layer 3/4 attacks that consume bandwidth.

Do I need FortiSIEM if I already have FortiGate?

FortiGate protects the perimeter. FortiSIEM correlates events from all your devices, regardless of brand, to detect complex attack patterns that a single firewall cannot detect on its own.
