NGFW / Network Security · head-to-head

Forcepoint vs VMware

Next-gen firewalls and hybrid-mesh network security. Counts are scoped to this segment and the selected published-date window. Forcepoint carries 14.0× the disclosed CVE volume of VMware. Volume reflects disclosure practice and install base as much as code quality — read it with the severity mix. Sourced from the NIST NVD; lower counts indicate a smaller disclosed vulnerability surface — not necessarily lower risk.
