WatchGuard Security Hardware Wins Gold for the Third Year in a Row in Network Products Guide’s 2018 IT World Awards

June 26, 2018 By The Editor

WatchGuard took home three awards from Network Products Guide’s 13th Annual 2018 IT World Awards today, and we’re especially proud to be named the Gold Winner in the Security Hardware category again this year for WatchGuard Firebox M370!

The annual IT World Awards recognition program from Network Products Guide – one of the industry’s leading technology research and advisory guides – honors the world’s best technologies, products and companies in every facet of information technology. For the third consecutive year, WatchGuard earned a coveted spot in the elite ranks of this program with awards in the following categories:

  • Gold Winner for Security Hardware (New or Upgrade version): WatchGuard Firebox M370 with Fireware version 12.1
  • Silver Winner for New Products and Services (500 – 2,499 Employees): WatchGuard Total Security Suite
  • Bronze Winner for CTO of the Year: Corey Nachreiner, Chief Technology Officer at WatchGuard Technologies

Named the #1 contender in the Security Hardware category, the Firebox M370 Unified Threat Management (UTM) appliance is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to defending small to midsize businesses from the same malicious attacks seen targeting larger organizations. The Firebox M370 is specifically engineered to enable best-in-class network security services without compromising performance. Powered by the latest generation of Freescale multi-core processors, it can run all its security scanning engines in parallel without causing performance bottlenecks. According to the independent test lab Miercom, WatchGuard Firebox M370 is up to three times faster than competing products with all security layers turned on, and up to 94 percent faster when performing HTTPS inspection.
