Firewalls have come a long way from their humble beginnings of assessing network traffic based on appearance alone. Here are six predictions for the future of the firewall. For example, a typical NGFW now may be equipped with firewalling, SD-WAN, a Wi-Fi controller for SD-Branch, an Ethernet controller, and zero-trust functionality.

As a networking and security strategy, zero trust stands in stark contrast to traditional, network-centric, perimeter-based architectures built with firewalls and VPNs, which involve excessive permissions and increase cyber risk. The main point is this: you cannot do zero trust with firewall- and VPN-centric architectures.
