We are thrilled to officially announce a strategic partnership with Bitdefender, a global leader in cybersecurity. This native integration connects Zyxel Networks’ USG FLEX H series firewalls with Bitdefender GravityZone, bringing network perimeter security and endpoint device visibility together into a single, unified experience. Designed specifically for enterprise environments and Managed Service Providers (MSPs), this collaboration eliminates security silos and enables IT teams to make faster, more informed security decisions.

🛡️ Why Endpoint Protection Matters for Enterprises & MSPs

As organizations embrace hybrid work, distributed endpoints such as laptops, servers, mobile devices, and IoT equipment have become primary targets for sophisticated cyberattacks. One single compromised endpoint can put the entire corporate network at risk.

Perimeter defense alone is no longer enough. By integrating Bitdefender GravityZone with USG FLEX H firewalls, organizations gain centralized management, synchronized threat detection, and automated protection across their digital environment.

Your network is only as secure as your weakest endpoint.

🚨 Solving the Fragmented Security Challenge

For businesses with lean IT and security teams, protecting the network and its endpoints usually means switching between separate, disconnected management portals every day. Expired software licenses are easily missed until they cause operational disruption or expose the business to a cyberattack.

💡Why Bitdefender GravityZone?

With over 25 years of cybersecurity expertise, Bitdefender operates one of the world’s largest threat intelligence networks, blocking hundreds of millions of malicious visits every month. Recognized by independent testing labs and industry analysts, Bitdefender delivers simple, scalable, and cost-effective endpoint security that helps businesses automate protection and reduce IT workloads.

Through its highly open and advanced REST APIs and SDKs, Bitdefender supports full lifecycle security automation, making it ideal for enterprise and MSP integrations.
