Juniper vSRX Virtual Firewall for Google Cloud Platform

As workloads move to the public cloud, they introduce challenges around securing the data and communication between workloads running in the cloud and other locations.

Network and security professionals must perform a delicate balancing act, delivering the benefits of cloud technologies without undermining the organization’s security. This challenge can only be met by a solution that keeps pace with evolving threats while matching the agility and scalability of cloud environments—without sacrificing reliability, visibility, and control.

Juniper Networks addresses these challenges head-on by extending the capabilities of the award-winning Juniper Networks® SRX Series Firewalls as a cloud-native virtual firewall for Google Cloud Platform (GCP), empowering security professionals to deploy and scale firewall protection for workloads running within GCP. The Juniper Networks vSRX Virtual Firewall offers unparalleled next- generation firewall (NGFW) security that includes intrusion prevention system (IPS), malware protection, app control, and on-demand threat detection. The vSRX also supports secure communications with SD-WAN, GCP virtual networks, and SD-LAN for secure segmentation between workloads.

The vSRX for GCP automated provisioning capabilities allow network and security administrators to quickly and efficiently provision and scale firewall protection to meet the dynamic needs of cloud environments. By combining the vSRX with the power of Junos Space® Security Director or Contrail® Service Orchestration, administrators can significantly improve policy configuration, management, and visibility into both physical and virtual assets from a common, centralized platform.
