Enterprise Next-Generation Firewall Security by SYSIT

The modern threat landscape has evolved significantly. Cyber attacks today commonly use encrypted channels, legitimate cloud applications, fileless malware, and lateral movement techniques to bypass traditional firewall controls. Traditional stateful firewalls and basic UTM devices are no longer sufficient to protect business networks. They lack the ability to inspect application-level traffic, identify advanced threats, and enforce granular security policies based on users, devices, and risk. SYSIT designs, deploys, and manages Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) solutions powered by Fortinet to provide Malaysian organisations with enterprise-grade perimeter and internal network protection. Our approach combines advanced firewall technology with proven security architecture, best-practice policy design, and ongoing optimisation to ensure long-term security and operational stability.

What Is a Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW)?

A Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) is a modern firewall platform that integrates multiple advanced security technologies into a single, high-performance security gateway. Unlike traditional firewalls that rely primarily on IP addresses and port numbers, NGFWs operate at Layer 7 to understand application behaviour, user identity, and threat context.

Core NGFW Capabilities

Application-Aware Traffic Inspection

NGFWs identify applications regardless of port, protocol, or encryption, allowing organisations to control how applications are used and reduce shadow IT risks.

Intrusion Prevention System (IPS)

Integrated IPS engines detect and block network-based exploits, vulnerabilities, and malicious traffic patterns in real time.

Advanced Malware Protection

NGFWs inspect files and traffic streams to detect malware, ransomware, and zero-day threats using signature-based and behavioural techniques.

Encrypted Traffic Inspection (SSL/TLS)

Since most internet traffic is encrypted, NGFWs can decrypt, inspect, and re-encrypt traffic to identify hidden threats while applying privacy and compliance controls.

Web Filtering and DNS Security

NGFWs block access to malicious websites, phishing domains, and command-and-control servers, reducing exposure to web-based threats.

User and Identity-Based Policy Enforcement

Security policies can be enforced based on user identity, device type, and group membership rather than just IP addresses.

Why Next-Generation Firewall Is Critical for Modern Businesses

Malaysian organisations face increasing cyber security risks due to cloud adoption, remote work, regulatory requirements, and rising ransomware activity.

Without NGFW protection, organisations are exposed to reduced visibility, increased attack surfaces, and a higher likelihood of data breaches and operational disruption.

Key Business Risks Without NGFW

  • Threats hidden inside encrypted HTTPS traffic
  • Uncontrolled cloud and SaaS application usage
  • Limited visibility into user and device activity
  • Increased ransomware and malware exposure
  • Higher compliance and audit risks
  • Inability to enforce granular security policies

SYSIT NGFW Delivery Methodology

SYSIT follows a structured, best-practice methodology to ensure that NGFW deployments are aligned with business objectives, performance requirements, and long-term scalability.

1. Security & Network Assessment

We analyse existing network architecture, traffic patterns, application usage, and security requirements to identify gaps and risks.

2. Architecture & Policy Design

We design firewall placement, segmentation strategies, high-availability architecture, and policy frameworks aligned with security best practices.

3. Deployment & Migration

Our engineers deploy and configure NGFWs, migrate policies from legacy firewalls, and perform controlled cutovers to minimise downtime.

4. Optimisation & Ongoing Protection

We continuously tune policies, apply firmware updates, monitor threats, and provide optional managed firewall and SOC services.
