Your firewall is automatically updated to protect your network from new security threats.


What It Is

  • Updates improve security and block new threats
  • These updates are managed automatically


What It Means for You

  • You usually won't need to take any action
  • In some cases, brief network interruptions may occur


What You Need to Know

  • Some updates may require the firewall to restart
  • During this time, your internet connection may briefly disconnect
  • Updates are typically scheduled to minimize disruption


What IT Manages

  • Firewall configuration and security rules
  • Scheduling and applying updates
  • Monitoring for threats and issues
