New Features

Automatic Port Selection

With this new feature, you can configure FireCloud automatically select which of the preset ports to use (UDP 4500, UDP 51280, UDP 443, or UDP 53) for the Connection Manager. When you do this, the Connection Manager verifies which of the preset ports that FireCloud uses are open and uses the first one available. For example, if you block port 4500, then the Connection Manager automatically uses port 51280. If that is blocked, then the Connection Manager uses port 443 or port 53. [SASE-3740]

Enhancements

• The FireCloud Connection Manager for macOS has been updated to version 1.4.15.9. This version of the Connection Manager supports the automatic port selection feature.

For more information, go to Add Resources in FireCloud.

FireCloud User Session Verification

On shared computers, when a user logs in to the computer the Connection Manager now compares the login to the current active FireCloud session. If the login is not from the same user account, the Connection Manager ends the active session and prompts the new user to connect to FireCloud. This ensures that FireCloud can apply the correct access rules and report data for each user on the shared computer. [SASE-5021]

Use Fireboxes as FireCloud Gateways

You can now set up a Firebox as a FireCloud Gateway to give users access to local resources on the company network without a VPN. With a Firebox Gateway, FireCloud runs as a service that is already installed on the Firebox, so configuration is minimal, and you do not have to deploy the gateway the way you do with a FireCloud Virtual Gateway.

This feature requires Fireware v12.12 or v2026.2 or higher.

New Features

FireCloud Internet Access

A new WatchGuard product, FireCloud Internet Access, is now available. FireCloud is a managed cloud-based firewall-as a-service. FireCloud protects your remote users against Internet-based security threats.

With FireCloud, you can configure these security settings to protect your users:

Content Scanning

Scanning engines protect against spyware, viruses, malicious applications, spam email, and data leakage.

Network Blocking

You can use FireCloud to monitor and block common security threats, such as botnets, spyware, SQL injections, cross-site scripting, and buffer overflows.

Geolocation

Geolocation is a security service that enables FireCloud to detect the geographic locations of connections to and from your protected devices. In FireCloud, you can enable and configure Geolocation to block access to and from specific locations.

Content Filtering

Content filtering uses the WebBlocker and Application Control security services to block specific content categories and applications.

You configure FireCloud in the WatchGuard Cloud platform, and end-users connect to the service with the WatchGuard Connection Manager. When end-users are connected to FireCloud, FireCloud protects them from threats so that they can safely use their computer and browse the Internet.

To get started, go to Quick Start — Set Up FireCloud and explore the FireCloud help documentation.
