WatchGuard Technologies has unveiled its next-generation Firebox M Series rackmount appliances, designed to offer scalable, high-performance security solutions for Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and expanding networks. These new models integrate seamlessly with WatchGuard’s Unified Security Platform® and deliver sustained high throughput even with full security services enabled. Remote workforce protection is built in via FireCloud Total Access, WatchGuard’s cloud-native zero trust network access (ZTNA) solution. The M Series delivers up to twice the performance of the previous generation and is built to scale alongside business needs without requiring hardware replacement. Key advantages include integrated Multi-Gig and SFP/SFP+ Connectivity, Intel-powered architecture, FireCloud Total Access support, flexible licensing, and a sustainable design. The M Series lineup includes five models tailored to fit various organizational needs: M295, M395, M495, M595, and M695.

All Firebox M Series models integrate with WatchGuard Cloud, enabling centralized management, XDR-powered detection with ThreatSync, and zero trust identity enforcement via AuthPoint MFA. Recognized by Gartner, IDC, and other leading analyst firms, the Firebox line is trusted by nearly 17,000 MSPs globally. Independent testing using NetSecOPEN standardized methodologies confirms the Firebox M Series maintains consistent throughput even under full security load. Unlike vendors with complex add-ons and hidden costs, WatchGuard includes essential features like gateway antivirus, spamBlocker, and cloud log retention as basic functionalities. With predictable pricing and integrated services, MSPs and SMEs gain access to enterprise-grade protection without the overhead. The Firebox M Series is available now through WatchGuard’s global partner network. For a limited time, new M Series customers will receive FireCloud Total Access licenses, unlocking ZTNA capabilities on day one.
