BLOKWORX SNPR (Secure Network Perimeter Response) is a fully managed firewall service built on Palo Alto Networks next-generation firewall (NGFW) appliances. It is designed for small- and medium-sized organizations that require enterprise-grade edge security without the overhead of managing the infrastructure internally. The service can be deployed on-premise via a physical appliance or through cloud services. Following an initial onboarding and configuration phase based on cybersecurity best practices, a sensor is deployed on the device and logs are forwarded to the BLOKWORX Security Operations Center (SOC) for continuous analysis and action. Core operational components include: - 24/7/365 US-based SOC monitoring and incident response - Event monitoring, alerting, and reporting - Ongoing compliance maintenance with prioritized security updates - Secure remote access via GlobalProtect VPN - DNS security and validation (DNS sinkhole) - Zero-day malware sandbox protection - Intrusion Detection and Prevention (IDS/IPS) - Web content filtering - IPSec VPN - SD-WAN - SIEM and SOAR integration for firewall telemetry BLOKWORX also provides supporting services including initial configuration and tuning, solution engineering for complex multi-site environments, firewall migration from other vendors, and deployment support. The service is positioned as a managed security service provider (MSSP) offering targeting MSPs and SMBs seeking to displace multiple point security functions with a single managed solution.
