Why Buy Red

Some Find Hackers Threatening. We Find Them Delicious.

Network threats can come from anywhere, at any time, and they can take you down before you even know they're there.
To seize them, you need a network security solution that's at the top of its game. That's WatchGuard. Uniquely architected
to be the industry's smartest, fastest and most potent network security solution.

Survival of the Fittest

Security technologies for anti-virus/anti-spam, intrusion prevention and APT protection are not created equal, so only the world's most trusted solutions make it onto our network security appliances. These best-of-the-best security scanning technologies sit on top of a platform WatchGuard built to be the fastest and most agile in the industry.

Why do we do it this way? Because proprietary approaches create hardware and software dependencies. We don't like them and neither do our customers. So we spent three years perfecting our Fireware® operating system to run full versions of the industry's leading scanning engines on an industry-standard platform for maximum flexibility. And maximum cost effectiveness: our customers get the industry's best performance at every price point.

We See Threats More Clearly

By integrating the best security technologies available into our proprietary platform, our engineers can focus on purpose-driven technology advances that solve real security problems. Like how to deliver data in a way that drives understanding and creates actionable intelligence.

Watch. Guard. Hunt. Repeat.

In internet security, seeing is knowing. If you can see it, you can deal with it, so visibility is protection. That's WatchGuard Dimension™. Dimension is WatchGuard's award-winning visibility tool that's standard on every WatchGuard NGFW or UTM appliance. Dimension enables busy IT security managers to instantly visualize and isolate threats to network security.

"WatchGuard Dimension is a tool designed to make life easier for security professionals, so they can more quickly distill key information and security data into actionable policy creation.”

Red Is Built for Speed*

Other manufacturers might offer faster throughput for one single security technology but we engineered WatchGuard's platform to deliver the fastest throughput when all of its powerful scanning engines are turned on. So turn them all on. You can't afford not to.

Be the Hunter. Not the Prey.

With access to enterprise-class security technologies, industry-leading visibility and the best performance at any price point, WatchGuard puts you at the top of the network security food chain.
