Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW)
Application-aware firewall with IPS, anti-malware, URL filtering, and sandboxing. Block ransomware, botnets, and zero-day threats at the network edge before they reach your users.
Overview
Why SIPPER for Firewall
We don’t just sell boxes. SIPPER designs your security architecture, sizes the right appliance, configures policies, and provides ongoing management. As a multi-brand provider, we recommend Fortinet, Sophos, or Cisco based on your actual requirements — not vendor incentives.
SD-WAN & SASE
Software-defined WAN for multi-site connectivity with intelligent path selection. Evolve to Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) with cloud-delivered security for remote workers and branch offices.
Zero Trust Architecture
Verify every user and device before granting access. Micro-segmentation, identity-based policies, and continuous authentication — no implicit trust for anyone inside or outside your network.

Capabilities
What we protect against
Ransomware & Malware Protection
Multi-layered defense: sandboxing, AI/ML detection, signature-based and behavioral analysis. Stop ransomware before encryption begins.
Web & Application Filtering
Control which applications and websites employees can access. Block shadow IT, enforce acceptable use policies, and prevent data exfiltration.
VPN & Remote Access
Site-to-site IPSec VPN for branch connectivity and SSL VPN for remote workers. Support for ZTNA (Zero Trust Network Access) to replace legacy VPN.
Intrusion Prevention (IPS)
Real-time network traffic analysis to detect and block exploit attempts, vulnerability scanning, and lateral movement. Integrated with threat intelligence feeds.
SSL/TLS Inspection
Decrypt and inspect encrypted traffic without performance degradation. Essential as over 90% of web traffic is now encrypted — threats hide inside HTTPS.
Managed Firewall Service
SIPPER monitors, updates, and manages your firewall 24/7. Firmware updates, policy changes, threat response, and monthly security reports — so you don’t need in-house security expertise.

FAQ
Common questions about Firewall & Security
FortiGate vs Sophos — which one should I choose?
FortiGate is stronger for larger organizations needing high throughput, SD-WAN, and Security Fabric integration across multiple sites. Sophos XGS excels for SMBs wanting simpler management through Sophos Central with Synchronized Security. SIPPER helps you compare based on your actual traffic volume, user count, and security requirements.
Do I need SD-WAN?
If you have 2+ office locations or heavy cloud application usage (Microsoft 365, Google Workspace), SD-WAN can reduce WAN costs by 30–50% while improving application performance. FortiGate and Sophos both offer integrated SD-WAN at no additional license cost.
What is Zero Trust and do I need it?
Zero Trust means “never trust, always verify” — every user and device must authenticate before accessing resources, even from inside the office network. It’s recommended for organizations with remote workers, BYOD policies, or sensitive data. SIPPER can implement ZTNA as part of your firewall deployment.
Can SIPPER manage our firewall for us?
Yes. Our Managed Firewall Service includes 24/7 monitoring, firmware updates, policy changes, threat response, and monthly security reports. Ideal for organizations without dedicated security staff.
How long does firewall deployment take?
Typical SMB deployment takes 1–2 weeks including site survey, policy design, installation, and testing. Enterprise multi-site projects take 4–8 weeks depending on complexity.
Does SIPPER help with PDPA compliance?
Yes. We design firewall and security policies that align with Thailand’s PDPA requirements including data access logging, encryption enforcement, and network segmentation for personal data protection.
