Reliable, Active Protection
Firewall Learning Mode
Effectively monitor and learn network traffic to generate and implement security policies.
High-Performance
Scan files crossing your network on the firewall already protecting the zone, with no separate appliance to deploy. Supports multiple port options, low latency, and high throughput.
Industrial-Grade Reliability
Ruggedized housing designed for harsh environments with extreme temperatures and high durability.
Integrated Traffic and File Inspection
MetaDefender Industrial Firewall extracts and inspects files using embedded MetaDefender Core™, which scans each file and returns a clean or infected verdict at the zone boundary.
Your Last Line of Defense for Critical OT & Cyber-Physical Systems
High-performing, real-time intrusion prevention delivers the critical layer of protection your industrial environment needs.
