for any physical or virtual infrastructure requirements, with multi-tier and multi-tenant capabilities through a
centralized WatchGuard Cloud management platform.
WatchGuard Cloud environments easily scale from one to an unlimited number of access points across
multiple locations. Access points can be grouped in many ways including location, building, floor, customers,
and remote users to maintain consistent policies across a distributed network.
