Resilience Without Gaps
In manufacturing plants, banking systems, retail chains, and healthcare facilities, downtime is not an inconvenience; it is a business stoppage. Firewalls that protect critical networks must remain available, even during failures or maintenance. Without a high availability design, a single device outage can disrupt thousands of users and services.
What Goes Wrong Without Scale
When high availability and scale are unmanaged, you face:
- Outages when a firewall node fails, disrupting operations
- Limited capacity during traffic spikes or branch expansion
- Manual intervention required for failover, slowing recovery
- Inability to extend consistent protection across multiple sites
The result is outages, lost revenue, and reduced confidence in security controls.
How Proactive Builds Resilient Firewall Operations
Proactive Managed Firewall designs and operates firewalls for resilience. With Cisco clustering and failover features, we ensure continuity even during hardware or link failures. Our service scales protection across branches, data centres, and cloud edges, keeping policies consistent. Failover and load distribution are tested and documented as part of the managed run, giving you confidence that resilience is not just a diagram, but a delivered capability.
What You Get
- Clustering and failover: Cisco Firepower devices configured for redundancy
- Load distribution: Traffic balanced to prevent single-device bottlenecks
- Multi-site coverage: Policies extended across branches and data centres
- Documented testing: Failover and recovery plans verified
- Scalable growth: Service model supports expansion without redesign
The Outcomes We Deliver
- Uptime protected against device or link failures
- Seamless continuity even during upgrades or maintenance
- Consistent protection across a growing footprint
- Lower business risk from unplanned downtime
Always On, Always Scaled
Resilience is mandatory for business continuity. With Proactive Managed Firewall, you gain availability and scale built into the service, so protection keeps pace with your business.
