WatchGuard Launches FireCloud Total Access: Zero Trust & Hybrid SASE for MSPs and IT Teams

WatchGuard® Technologies, a global leader in unified cybersecurity, has introduced FireCloud Total Access — an innovative solution that elevates Zero Trust and cloud-native security. This hybrid SASE service is aimed at Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and agile IT teams that want enterprise-grade protection combined with simplicity and fast deployment.

A new standard for cloud security

FireCloud Total Access is designed to address the modern security challenges organizations face today. The platform consolidates four core components:

  • Secure Web Gateway (SWG)
  • Firewall-as-a-Service (FWaaS)
  • Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA)
  • Identity verification

By unifying these capabilities in a cloud-native platform, organizations can protect both users and data regardless of location, simplifying policy enforcement and improving security posture across distributed environments.

Protection for the hybrid workforce

Hybrid work is now the norm, increasing the need to secure users outside traditional office perimeters. FireCloud Total Access delivers secure, identity-based access to SaaS, cloud services and private applications without relying on complex VPNs or on-premises hardware.

This approach provides strong defenses against internet-borne threats while giving users a smooth, frictionless experience that supports productivity.

Consolidated security in a single platform

Instead of managing multiple point solutions, FireCloud Total Access lets MSPs and IT teams consolidate security needs into one platform. That consolidation simplifies administration, reduces operational overhead, and lowers support costs.

Built as a natural extension of WatchGuard’s Unified Security Platform®, the service integrates seamlessly with existing network, endpoint and identity services to provide consistent protection and centralized management.

Part of WatchGuard’s SASE vision

FireCloud Total Access represents the next step in WatchGuard’s Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) strategy. Over recent years the company has developed a vision for delivering security as a service, and FireCloud is the clearest expression of that approach so far.

With this solution, organizations can implement a comprehensive Zero Trust policy to reduce exposure to attacks and unauthorized access, ensuring robust, identity-centric protection across the enterprise.

Benefits for MSPs and SMBs

FireCloud Total Access targets Managed Service Providers and small to mid-sized businesses (SMBs) that face many of the same threats as large enterprises but often lack the resources for complex security stacks.

Key advantages include:

  • Fast deployment – no on-site hardware required
  • Low complexity – easy to manage for small teams
  • Predictable costs – per-user licensing
  • Scalability – grows with organizational needs

These benefits enable MSPs to deliver enterprise-grade security to their customers while maintaining predictable, profitable service and licensing models.

Global availability

FireCloud Total Access will be available globally starting September 25, 2025. More than 17,000 WatchGuard partners worldwide will be able to offer the service to their customers.

To ease adoption, WatchGuard provides product demonstrations, trial access and training through WatchGuard Cloud and the Partner Portal. This support helps partners and customers onboard quickly and start realizing the platform’s benefits with minimal friction.

A step toward the future of cybersecurity

The launch of FireCloud Total Access reinforces WatchGuard’s position as a leading cybersecurity provider. Across three decades in the industry, the company has consistently combined innovation, simplicity and accessibility in its product portfolio.

FireCloud is more than a product — it is a framework for delivering the next generation of cybersecurity. By making advanced capabilities like Zero Trust and SASE accessible to organizations of all sizes, WatchGuard contributes to a safer digital landscape.
