In a world where network speed, data protection, and business continuity are non-negotiable, the WatchGuard Firebox M690 High Availability Firewall stands out as a trusted backbone for midsize organizations and distributed enterprises. This appliance brings together robust security, enterprise-grade performance, and an intuitive management experience, all in a compact, scalable platform. Built for environments that demand constant uptime, the M690 is designed to withstand evolving cyber threats while delivering the reliability your business relies on. From small branch offices to multisite deployments, this firewall balances aggressive threat prevention with flexible deployment options, empowering IT teams to simplify administration without compromising protection. With a focus on ease of deployment and ongoing protection, the M690 helps you accelerate digital workflows, protect sensitive data, and ensure secure access for users, devices, and cloud applications across the enterprise.

  • Uncompromising security with multilayer threat protection The M690 delivers a comprehensive security stack, combining stateful firewall capabilities, intrusion prevention, application control, malware protection, and URL filtering to prevent known and emerging threats before they reach users. It supports rapid security policy updates and centralized licensing so your team can enforce consistent rules across on-premises and remote sites. By integrating threat intelligence and security services into a single console, administrators gain visibility into network activity, identify risk patterns, and respond quickly to new attack techniques, all while reducing operational overhead.
  • High availability for mission-critical networks In today’s business landscape, downtime costs more than maintenance. The M690 is engineered for high availability, offering redundant components and failover capabilities that keep critical services online during hardware maintenance or unexpected outages. With seamless failover between Firebox units, synchronized configurations, and centralized monitoring, IT teams can maintain consistent policy enforcement, session persistence, and user experience even as hardware or network conditions change. This capability is ideal for distributed enterprises, data centers, and branch networks that demand uptime alongside robust security.
  • High-performance throughput to move more traffic The M690 delivers firewall throughput up to 29.7 Gbps, empowering organizations to support growing user counts, bandwidth-intensive cloud applications, video conferencing, and VPN traffic without bottlenecks. Beyond raw speed, this performance is complemented by streamlined packet processing, optimized threat detection pipelines, and smart caching that minimizes latency. This balance of speed and security ensures that legitimate business traffic flows freely, while malicious activity is halted at the perimeter or at the gateway. The result is predictable, scalable performance that aligns with today’s digital work environments.
  • Flexible management and deployment The Firebox M690 is designed for flexible administration, offering centralized management through WatchGuard’s management tools and policies to enforce consistent security posture across multiple sites. IT teams can configure, monitor, and adjust firewall rules, VPN settings, and security services from a single console, reducing complexity in multisite deployments. The appliance supports a range of deployment models—from campus-wide edge security to distributed branch protection—so organizations can tailor their security architecture to fit unique network topologies while preserving policy consistency and simplified upgrades.
  • Comprehensive security services and licenses To keep pace with evolving threats, the M690 supports a broad suite of security services, including VPN capabilities, centralized threat detection, and secure remote access. Licenses can be managed centrally, enabling rapid activation of features as your organization grows or as regulatory requirements change. With integrated reporting and analytics, administrators gain actionable insights into network health, threat activity, and policy effectiveness, helping teams demonstrate compliance and optimize defenses over time.

Great fun Valentines story for young children
Format: Paperback
Totally silly and fun for Valentines! Enjoyed reading a story with a moral to it about being a bully and returning harshness back, vengeful behavior. All in a silly story, a tale of forgiveness and friendship. Really good for Kindergarteners and young children who are learning about friendships. All the characters are animals and are so sweetly rendered. The wording is delightful and makes you laugh. I really enjoyed reading it to my grandkids.

Fun for reading over FaceTime
Format: Board book
This is an adorable book! It’s so much fun to read with kids. My grandson loves it! I got it for him when he was 9 months old and he still loves it at almost 2. Kids love the suspense of seeing what animal the zoo sent next and opening the flap to see. The pictures are cute and colorful and the writing is just right to keep little ones interested. I live across the country from my grandson, but my daughter is good about FaceTiming. So I use that time to read to him. And this book is great for that. He loves when the flaps open to see what animal is there. (Although he already knows, because we’ve read it so many times.) But we love it anyway. It’s a wonderful book. Definitely worth buying.
