New Features - Cloud NGFW for AWS - April 2025

Cloud NGFW for AWS enhances credit usage visibility through the Cloud NGFW Credits Management Console to address the challenge of understanding and optimizing cloud security spending across distributed resources. Organizations managing Cloud NGFW deployments struggle to track how credits are consumed across multiple resources, Cloud-Delivered Security Services, and centralized management platforms, making cost forecasting and optimization difficult. With enhanced credit visibility, you can now analyze your usage at different periods at a summary level for your tenant and NGFW resources, while maintaining the ability to analyze usage at a granular level for Cloud-Delivered Security Services (CDSS) and Centralized management components including Panorama, Strata Cloud Manager, and Strata Logging Services.

This comprehensive visibility enables you to understand spending patterns from high-level trends down to individual service consumption, identifying optimization opportunities and allocating costs appropriately across business units. You can track how different security services contribute to overall credit consumption, compare usage across time periods to identify anomalies, and make data-driven decisions about resource provisioning and security service configurations. The enhanced console provides actionable insights that help you balance security requirements against budget constraints while ensuring you maximize the value of your Cloud NGFW investment.
