Security Effectiveness tests measured how well the enterprise firewall controlled network access/applications and prevented exploits/evasions, all while remaining resistant to false positives. Products were subjected to thorough testing to determine their support for TLS/SSL 1.2 and 1.3 cipher suites, how they defended against 1,724 exploits, whether protection could be bypassed by any of 1,482 evasions, and if the devices would remain stable under adverse conditions. Six products received Recommended ratings with high security effectiveness scores ranging from 94.05% to 99.94%.
