Palo Alto Networks Deployment · London
Palo Alto Networks Deployment in London
Deploying Palo Alto Networks firewalls for London organisations, where the headline throughput is not the number to size against. Enabling threat prevention reduces it substantially and decryption reduces it again, so a device chosen on its datasheet figure can be comfortably undersized once the features you bought it for are switched on.
Why this comes up
The problem
The firewall was sized on datasheet throughput and struggles once inspection is enabled.
What you get
What we deliver
- Sizing based on throughput with your intended features enabled, not the headline figure
- Decryption impact modelled, since this is the heaviest single addition
- Actual traffic volumes measured rather than estimated from connection counts
- Growth allowed for, as replacing an undersized device is expensive and disruptive
- High availability configured where an outage would be material
- Policy built application-aware from the start rather than migrated as port rules

London
London clients usually come to us because they want senior people actually on their project rather than a large agency's B team, and because Midlands rates buy considerably more delivery per pound.
Clients here are usually replacing an agency, and want senior people on the work at rates that are not Central London rates.

Palo Alto Networks Deployment in London — common questions
- How much does inspection reduce throughput?
- Considerably, and it varies by feature. Threat prevention costs a substantial proportion of the raw figure and decryption costs more again, so the number to size against is the one measured with your intended configuration rather than the one on the front of the datasheet.
- Is decryption worth the capacity?
- Where inspection genuinely matters, yes — most traffic is encrypted, so a device not decrypting is inspecting very little. It carries privacy and legal considerations alongside the performance cost, and both belong in the decision rather than only the second.
- How should traffic be measured?
- From what your current device reports, at peak rather than average. Sizing against average throughput produces a firewall that struggles exactly when the business is busiest, which is the moment nobody wants to discover it.
- Why build application-aware policy immediately?
- Because migrating port rules and intending to improve them later rarely happens. The deployment is the natural opportunity to write policy the way the platform expects, and doing it then costs a fraction of returning to it once the rules are established.
- Do you work with businesses across Greater London?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout London, including London and the surrounding Greater London area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of London businesses do you usually work with?
- Clients here are usually replacing an agency, and want senior people on the work at rates that are not Central London rates. Beyond that we work across Financial Services, Professional Services, Technology, Media, Hospitality and Retail.
- Do you cover the areas around London?
- Yes — we work throughout London, including Reading, Milton Keynes, Cambridge, Brighton. London is an urban area of roughly 9,000,000+, and we take on work across the wider Greater London region rather than the city boundary alone.
