Palo Alto Networks vs SonicWall

Next-gen firewalls and hybrid-mesh network security. Counts are scoped to this segment and the selected published-date window. SonicWall carries 2.0× the disclosed CVE volume of Palo Alto Networks.

Sourced from the NIST NVD; lower counts indicate a smaller disclosed vulnerability surface — not necessarily lower risk.
