Anaf Fire Protection | Manufacturing | 300 | $38M | Italy | WatchGuard | Watchguard NGFW | Next Generation Firewall | 2019 | n/a |
In 2019, Anaf Fire Protection implemented Watchguard NGFW. The Watchguard NGFW Next Generation Firewall was deployed as the primary perimeter and site security platform across a medium sized manufacturing network spanning five plants and five sales and distribution offices in Italy and Europe, supporting approximately 130 workstations, 50 computerized production lines and 300 employees.
Deployment centered on core Next Generation Firewall capabilities including stateful firewalling, site to site and mobile VPN termination, application control, intrusion prevention and centralized logging and reporting. Watchguard NGFW was configured to enforce network segmentation between corporate IT systems and production line industrial PCs, to apply role based access controls for users and services, and to consolidate firewall policy management for both local and geographical networks.
Integrations aligned the Watchguard NGFW with existing infrastructure components, linking authentication and policy enforcement to Active Directory and supporting Microsoft 365 hybrid email management and security operations. Operational telemetry and security event collection were consolidated into WG Dimension and LibreNMS for monitoring, while endpoint protections with Kaspersky and remote administration tools such as Apache Guacamole Portal, Teamviewer and MeshCentral remained part of the operational support stack.
Operational governance and lifecycle maintenance were managed by the Senior Network and Systems Administrator, who performed preventive and evolutionary maintenance of servers, storage, virtualization and network devices, coordinated VPN connectivity for remote sites, and used Lansweeper for internal ticketing and LibreNMS for metrics collection. The implementation positions Watchguard NGFW as the Next Generation Firewall protecting both production line and corporate IT functions within Anaf Fire Protection.

Bowens | Retail | 500 | $100M | Australia | WatchGuard | Watchguard NGFW | Next Generation Firewall | 2018 | n/a |
In 2018, Bowens implemented Watchguard NGFW by installing WatchGuard Firebox M470 appliances to add additional layers of security. The deployment followed a centralized IT architecture, with all Bowens sites connecting to the datacenter via an MPLS network, which reduces site complexity by requiring only routers at each location. Watchguard NGFW was provisioned at the datacenter edge to provide consolidated perimeter control and consistent policy enforcement across the retail estate.
Functional coverage drew on standard Next Generation Firewall capabilities such as stateful firewalling, intrusion prevention, application control, VPN termination and deep packet inspection to secure site to datacenter traffic flows. Bowens configured two Firebox M470 appliances in a dual unit arrangement to permit reboots and upgrades without interrupting network traffic, and operational governance remained centralized under the corporate IT and security teams for firmware lifecycle management and change control.

CITY OF BURGWEDEL | Government | 350 | $100M | Germany | WatchGuard | Watchguard NGFW | Next Generation Firewall | 2018 | n/a |
In 2018, CITY OF BURGWEDEL implemented Watchguard NGFW as its Next Generation Firewall to secure municipal WLAN and school networks. The deployment targeted wireless threats of all types, enabling detection and resolution of rogue access points and clients, ad-hoc networks, evil twins, misconfigurations, and invalid client associations.
The Watchguard NGFW implementation centralized WLAN threat detection and enabled segmentation of WLAN structures into any number of individual VLANs through the assignment of specific customized security rules. Functional capabilities implemented included wireless threat identification and resolution, VLAN-based network segmentation, and policy-driven per-VLAN access controls, with configuration guidance to keep building automation traffic separate from user applications. Watchguard NGFW also provided sufficient throughput planning to support latency sensitive services.
Operational scope covered municipal schools and building control systems, with a phased orientation as schools expand over the next few years. Governance and rollout emphasized VLAN separation and customized security rules to digitally map central heating and roller blind control systems in isolated network segments, while preserving capacity for applications such as VoIP which the city identified as a potential avenue for further savings.
