Description

The global next-generation firewall (NGFW) market is undergoing a rapid transformation as organizations shift to hybrid, multicloud, and edge environments that outgrow traditional, perimeter-based security models. As cyber threats accelerate in sophistication and adversaries adopt AI-driven techniques, enterprises require unified and simplified security platforms capable of delivering consistent protection across distributed workloads. NGFWs have evolved into integrated, cloud-aligned platforms that embed zero trust principles, advanced threat intelligence, and automation to reduce operational complexity and strengthen prevention efficacy.

This Frost Radar™ provides a structured assessment of competing NGFW vendors by benchmarking each in terms of Growth and Innovation, offering CISOs a clear, analytically grounded mechanism to identify high-potential providers for deeper evaluation. By visualizing market positioning and distinguishing vendors with compelling strategies, scalable platforms, and differentiated capabilities, the Frost Radar™ is a strategic tool to streamline vendor shortlisting and support investment decisions. The competitive landscape includes global market leaders and specialized challengers, each addressing customer requirements through AI-driven automation, cloud-native scalability, and ecosystem convergence. Across the industry, enterprises continue to seek integrated solutions that unify visibility, enhance operational efficiency, and adapt to the increasingly complex architectures that define modern digital environments.
