Vodafone Idea’s (Vi) enterprise arm Vi Business has launched a new security offering, ‘Vi Cloud Firewall’, a cloud-deployed security solution for enterprises in partnership with Firstwave Cloud Technology.
Firstwave Cloud Technology helped design Vi Cloud Firewalls for Vi’s OpenStack RedHat Cloud environment, managed using Firewave’s Cloud Content Security Platform (CCSP). The Firewall solution is powered by Palo Alto Networks VM-Series Virtual Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) technology, as per an official statement.
The new security offering comes with new firewall features like a gateway, antivirus, DDoS protection, secure VPN, data loss prevention, content filtering, real-time intelligence, amongst others. The statement added the deployment of this network-based solution will require zero Capex, zero-touch, and will eliminate the need for an on-premise infrastructure for enterprises to set up and run.
Abhijit Kishore, Chief Enterprise Business Officer, Vodafone Idea, says, “Vi Cloud Firewall is a flexible subscription-based solution offering ease of business operations, connectivity, and security for businesses across domains. With the launch of Vi Cloud Firewall, Vi Business has taken another significant step towards providing comprehensive and integrated connectivity and security solutions to our enterprise customers.”
“Businesses in India can now take advantage of Vi’s SaaS-based cybersecurity services, starting with cloud firewalls and in the future Email and Web security, delivered via Vi’s incredible network and using FirstWave’s CCSP platform. The FirstWave team is excited and committed to supporting Vi Business in this journey,” ad Neil Pollock, CEO, FirstWave Cloud Technology.
With Vi Cloud Firewall, enterprises and businesses across BFSI, Healthcare, Manufacturing, Retail, Travel, Logistics, Real Estate, NBFC, Education, etc., can benefit from security practices maintained by accredited security professionals and 24x7 monitoring and measurement.
