NGAF Unique Features

What is the unique features of NGAF vs the other vendor like Palo Alto, Checkpoint and Fortinet. In my research, almost all of them has the same capabilities so what is the advantage of NGAF?

Next-Generation Application Firewall may differentiate itself from competitors like Palo Alto, Checkpoint, and Fortinet through unique features such as advanced AI-driven threat detection, application behavior analysis, and real-time adaptive security. While core capabilities might align, NGAF's focus on cutting-edge technologies and adaptive defenses can provide an edge in identifying and mitigating emerging threats.

features that make NGAF unique from other NGFWs are;
ransomware detetion
WAF
XDDR
end point
etc

Sangfor NGAF is a next-generation firewall that specializes in ransomware detection and helps protect networks from ransomware threats and malware. Sangfor NGAF provides a WAF and firewall solution, which is a valuable feature compared to other vendors like Sophos, Fortinet, and Cisco that only provide one solution. Sangfor NGAF also supports IPv6.

Hi,

Sangfor NGAF is the world 1st fully integrated NGFW (Next Generation Firewall) + WAF (Web Application Firewall). It can help you provide a comprehensive network security protection against current, emerging and future threats. Anti Phishing: Send out alerts on suspicious emails that could bring in Ransomware. Anti-Virus: Clear out known Ransomware according to over 1+ million signatures in SANGFOR database.

Thanks

All NGFW features work almost in same working principles but features that make NGAF unique from other NGFWs are;

Ransomware Detection: It specializes in ransomware detection and helps us protect the network from ransomware threats and malware.

Endpoint Secure Correlation: Endpoint and NGAF Protection enables the ES to share security information with the NGAF, thus implementing the association of network and endpoint security information, which can make threats more detectable and easier to handle.

Single Click Malware Isolation: After you integarte NGAF with Sangfor NDR (Cyber Command), it then provides single-click malware isolation. If an endpoint is infected with a malware, it automatically instructs NGAF to isolate the infected endpoint. NGAF accordinly creates a security policy & stops the infected endpoint from infecting other endpoints.

XDDR Capabilities: To achieve XDDR stregth, you need to have NGAF, NDR & EDR integation to provide end-to end protection.

SOC capabilities: It is only NGAF that provides the SOC capabilities.

WAF Capabilities: Same hardware firewall can be deployed as a WAF providing comprehensive strengths of WAF. While other OEMs provide extra hardware for the same purpose.
