NIS2 cannot be solved by purchasing a product. A properly designed Netgate firewall can strengthen segmentation, remote access, logging and operational resilience: practical components of a broader programme.
Where Netgate helps
- Segmentation of users, servers, devices and guest networks.
- Access rules and reduced exposure of services.
- Encrypted VPN and multi-factor authentication for remote access.
- Collection and forwarding of logs to external systems.
- Multi-WAN and high availability for critical services.
What a firewall does not cover
- Governance and management accountability.
- Risk analysis and asset inventory.
- Incident response and reporting procedures.
- Supply-chain and supplier security.
- Training, business continuity and periodic reviews.
From the directive to the network
A useful design starts with critical services, not with the appliance model. The minimum path is to:
- define scope, sites, users and services to protect;
- separate networks and apply least privilege;
- secure remote access and site-to-site links;
- retain logs and design backup and continuity.
No appliance guarantees compliance
Compliance depends on national implementation, sector, organisation size and organisational measures. FRAOS provides a technical assessment, not legal advice.
A technical assessment with four facts
Send us your sector, employee or turnover range, number of sites and current firewall. We will identify realistic network measures and the Netgate model to consider.

The EuroFirewalls guide compares scope, measures, penalties and transposition status in major European countries, with links to official sources.
The technical assessment does not replace the legal and organisational analysis required by regulation.
