Next Generation Perimeter Security

Many of our clients are struggling with the need to transact, communicate and collaborate effectively whilst maintaining effective security and compliance.

Clients want to reduce complexity in their security architectures, preventing “appliance sprawl” where complex layered architectures with networking, load balancing & discreet security appliances & applications exist today. These clients also want to reduce operating costs and capital expense, saving valuable data centre footprint and energy costs.

Next generation firewalls have to be flexible, efficient, robust and scalable to add security applications when your business requires them.  Businesses want “change ready” architecture where new security applications like intrusion prevention (IPS), application firewalls and Anti-virus can easily be added without fundamentally changing the entire architecture.

There are clear business benefits for a client embarking on a security consolidation project with Maxima;

• Total Cost of Ownership reduced by at least 30% through simplified architecture, faster troubleshooting, reduced support, fewer upgrades & faster application provisioning
• Up to 50% energy cost reduction for a consolidated security solution
• All these areas of cost savings are fed into our Business Case tool to prove the overall ROI of the new solution. There is normally an ROI for the solution inside 12 months

Maxima partners with Crossbeam, CheckPoint and Fortinet for this solution and we offer a “discovery” workshop with clients to assess the benefits and ROI of a consolidation project and calculate the Return on Investment for your project.
