Next-Generation Firewalls with AI: MODERN NETWORK SECURITY FOR CLOUD AND ZERO TRUST: Deploy NGFWs with AI threat detection, SASE integration, and mult

By Laitan Michael

Build a modern, AI ready firewall program that protects cloud, data center, Kubernetes, remote users, and the edge with precision and clarity.

Attackers move fast, encryption is everywhere, and networks span on premises, multiple clouds, and edge sites. Old perimeter models and port based rules cannot keep up, and teams need a dependable way to apply Zero Trust, reduce noise, and respond quickly without breaking the business.

This book shows how to design, deploy, and operate next generation firewalls that fit today's architectures. You will learn how AI raises detection fidelity, how identity and application context drive policy, and how to express controls as code so they stay consistent across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud.
