SonicWall recently introduced a suite of products and services designed to help managed service providers (MSPs) expand profitably while delivering end-to-end customer protection.
These new products include new next-generation mid-range and high-end firewalls (NGFWs) with embedded advanced threat protection built for medium-sized businesses.
Introducing Managed Protection Service Suite (MPSS)
The Managed Protection Service Suite (MPSS) Firewall Management with 24/7 monitoring is another product that allows MSPs of varying sizes to offer managed firewall services backed by SonicWall’s SonicSentry Network Operations Center (NOC) team.
Further, there is the new SonicPlatform, a cloud-native solution purpose-built for MSPs to dramatically reduce cyber exposure, simplify operations, and maximize visibility. This solution is backed by expert, always-on security teams and reinforced by a groundbreaking cyber warranty.
“SonicWall’s new standard for cybersecurity marks a pivotal moment in our evolution as an innovator expanding into a platform-based cybersecurity leader,” said SonicWall President and CEO Bob VanKirk. “As we continue to listen to our partners and evolve with their changing needs, we are consolidating fragmented tools into one secure, scalable, and smart platform.”
He added: “With this launch, we are bringing together industry-leading firewall threat performance, cloud-based ZTNA to replace legacy VPNs, co-managed NOC and SOC services, and an industry-first cybersecurity warranty so MSPs have every tool they need to ensure the businesses they serve are safe, in a scalable and cost-effective way.”
These next-generation solutions are designed to meet MSPs with key features that include:
- Multi-tenant architecture: Manage multiple clients efficiently through one platform.
- Flexible subscription licensing: Monthly/annual options support the MSSP model.
- Ecosystem integration: Seamless third-party integrations for operational efficiency.
- End-to-end coverage: SonicWall delivers centralized protection and compliance from endpoint to edge.
SonicWall solutions for cybersecurity
SonicWall’s new solutions combine the tools MSPs need to deliver layered, AI-driven security, managed in one intuitive interface.
Among the solutions SonicWall is now offering to help MSPs deliver secure, scalable, and smart solutions are:
- Next-Generation Firewalls (NSa 2800/3800): Mid-enterprise, high-performance NGFW built for demanding SMB environments with advanced threat protection.
- Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA): One-click ZTNA connector for secure, simple, policy-based access with dramatically improved network performance and security versus legacy VPN.
- Managed Protection Service Suite (MPSS): Backed by the SonicSentry NOC team, the new MPSS bundle extends SonicWall’s partner’s bench with a team of network security professionals to ensure firewalls are configured, deployed, and updated correctly to provide the best threat protection possible.
- NSM 3.0: SaaS and on-premises platform offering unparalleled visibility and efficiency with harmonized cloud/on-box management.
- SonicPlatform: A unified, cloud-native platform for centralizing management of all SonicWall appliances, services, and third-party integrations.
- SonicWall AI for Monitoring & Insight (SAMI): Embedded AI/automation to streamline management, speed resolution, and reduce alert fatigue.
“Over the past two years, we’ve focused on listening to our partners and addressing their challenges as cyberattacks accelerate, response times lag, and cybersecurity solutions grow increasingly complex,” said SonicWall Chief Product Officer Peter Burke. “As a result, we have made dramatic improvements to the features and scalability of our firewall management platform and integrated them into a unified platform for account, security, and network management that should simplify use and make partners more efficient.
He added: “By consolidating end-to-end management and delivering key capabilities for scale and security, we’re empowering partners to focus on growth, expanding their services, increasing profitability, and delivering greater value to their customers.”
Enhanced SonicSentry support
The launch included enhanced support services through SonicSentry, SonicWall’s global Managed Extended Detection and Response (MXDR) team, and MPSS.
These co-managed services are built for MSPs, allowing them to “profitably deepen their bench and extend their service capabilities with 24/7 monitoring, health checks, patch management, and optimized firewall deployment.”
Further, when adding SonicWall’s partnership with Cysurance, SonicWall deployments can qualify for a tiered cyber warranty of up to $1 million. Qualified devices come with a $100K cyber warranty, while managed deployments through MPSS can double that protection up to $200K in coverage.
“SonicWall’s MPSS will allow MSPs to deliver top-tier security to customers without the burden of constant firewall management,” said Meriplex Channel Manager Greg Starr. “By offloading the complexities of firewall management, SonicWall partners will be able to deliver premium security services backed by 24/7 expert support and enhanced cyber warranty protection. This not only strengthens client trust, but also opens new revenue opportunities for us as a partner, allowing us to scale and grow more efficiently.”
SonicWall’s mission to provide enhanced security for MSPs with new solutions and collaborations has been prevalent through the first few months of 2025. Read more about the company’s partnership with CrowdStrike to combine network, endpoint, and cloud protection.
