NGFW & DDoS Protection
Next-generation firewalls and volumetric attack defense, engineered and operated by the team securing some of India’s most sensitive network perimeters.
What we deliver
The firewall is still where most attacks meet your network first — but a next-generation firewall running permit-any policies, expired signatures or flat zones is expensive theater. The value is in the engineering: application-aware policy, decrypted inspection, segmentation that assumes something inside will eventually be compromised.
Enrich has designed and deployed perimeter security for 50+ government projects — including hardened deployments for a central armed police force across remote border installations — and for BFSI platforms where a dropped packet is a headline. We are certified partners of Fortinet, Palo Alto Networks and Check Point, and we deploy DDoS mitigation for platforms that absorb attack traffic measured in gigabits.
Every deployment includes what most miss: documented policy rationale, change control, and the segmentation map your auditors and incident responders will one day be very glad exists.
What's included
NGFW Design & Deployment
Application-aware, identity-integrated firewall policy — engineered from your traffic reality, not copied from the old box.
DDoS Mitigation
Volumetric and application-layer attack absorption, sized to your bandwidth and failure modes, tested before it’s needed.
IPS / IDS
Inline intrusion prevention with tuned signature and anomaly detection — protection that blocks, not just logs.
Network Segmentation
Zone architecture and micro-segmentation that contain a breach to one segment instead of the whole enterprise.
SSL/TLS Inspection
Decrypted inspection done right — because attackers encrypt too, and an NGFW that can’t see inside TLS is blind to most modern traffic.
HA & Migration Engineering
Firewall refreshes and vendor migrations with zero-downtime cutovers — policy translation, parallel run, verified rollback.
From assessment to operations
Assess
Rulebase audit (we routinely find 40%+ dead rules), traffic profiling and segmentation-gap analysis.
Design
Zone architecture, policy model and HA topology on Fortinet, Palo Alto or Check Point — sized with headroom for decryption.
Deploy
Parallel-run migration with policy translation and staged cutover. The old firewall stays warm until the new one has proven itself.
Operate
Policy lifecycle management, signature tuning, and firmware governance — or full co-management with your NOC/SOC.

Common questions
Our firewall was installed three years ago and “works fine.” What’s the risk?
+
Firewall estates rot silently: rules accumulate, nobody deletes, and the policy drifts toward permit-everything. In rulebase audits we routinely find large fractions of rules unused, shadowed or over-broad — each one attack surface. A policy audit is the cheapest security win available; it needs no new hardware.
Do we need dedicated DDoS protection if we have a firewall?
+
Yes, for one physical reason: a volumetric DDoS attack saturates your internet link before traffic ever reaches your firewall. On-premises boxes can’t defend a pipe that’s already full. Effective DDoS defense combines upstream/cloud scrubbing for volume with on-premises mitigation for application-layer attacks — we architect both.
Can you migrate us to a new firewall vendor without downtime?
+
Yes — it’s a discipline we’ve executed for mission-critical government and BFSI networks: translate and clean the policy (never copy it verbatim), run new and old in parallel, cut over segment by segment with instant rollback. Downtime windows are for the change board, not for users to notice.
Fortinet, Palo Alto or Check Point — which should we choose?
+
All three are excellent; the right answer depends on your throughput and decryption needs, existing ecosystem, operations tooling and budget shape. As certified partners of all three we’re not incentivized to force one — our assessment phase produces a sized, evidence-based recommendation.
