NETGEAR® Inc., a global leader in
intelligent networking solutions designed to power extraordinary experiences,
today announced a tailored security solution for small and medium-sized
enterprises (SMEs). Based on an acquisition made earlier this year, NETGEAR
delivers Exium, the industry’s only all-in-one Secure Access Service Edge
(SASE) and hybrid firewall solution designed specifically for SMEs and the
managed service providers (MSPs) that support them. Coinciding with National
Cybersecurity Awareness month, the enterprise-grade security and networking
offering is available to organizations worldwide.
SMEs Face Rising Cybersecurity
Threats
According to the Verizon Data
Breach Investigations Report SMEs faced more than 3,000 cybersecurity
incidents, nearly four times as many cybersecurity incidents as large
enterprises, in 2025. Despite this increased risk, many security solutions
remain overly complex or fragmented, making them difficult for smaller
businesses to implement and manage effectively.
Delivering on the vision for
NETGEAR’s enterprise offering set forth by NETGEAR for Business President and
GM Pramod Badjate, integration of the Exium SASE platform fills this gap by
providing SMEs with a unified solution that combines advanced threat
protection, AI-powered zero-trust network access (ZTNA), secure web gateway
(SWG), SD-WAN, and firewall capabilities in a single, user-friendly platform.
The platform allows SMEs to
replace certain outdated, fragmented security systems with a modern,
cloud-managed solution. All features are managed through a centralized,
intuitive interface, simplifying network operations and security management.
This helps enable businesses to protect data, users, and devices across
multiple sites and remote locations with ease.
“Small and medium businesses are
just as exposed to cyber threats as larger enterprises, if not more, but most
security solutions are either too complicated or piecemeal for them to handle,”
said Farooq Khan, Vice President of Software Security at NETGEAR. “By
integrating Exium with our networking solutions, we’re offering SMEs
easy-to-use, enterprise-grade protection. This helps empower them to counter
modern threats confidently, lessening the burden on internal IT teams.”
Built for Managed Service
Providers
The platform is optimized for
MSPs, offering multi-tenant management and streamlined service delivery. This
scalable, cost-effective security framework equips SMEs with the tools needed
to help build a secure and resilient network infrastructure. With this
solution, businesses can focus more on growth and innovation.
Exium is available now from
NETGEAR. Current partners or MSPs wishing to become NETGEAR partners as well as
SME customers looking to connect with the right partner can visit
