Enterprise architecture Possibilities

The Nex Firewall enterprise pricing framework is purpose-built for large organizations running AI workloads in production that need advanced, real-time protection against AI-related threats. The model clearly separates CAPEX and OPEX purchasing approaches, giving organizations the flexibility to align with their preferred procurement and budgeting strategies. All primary offerings include a generous annual allocation of AI API requests, creating a predictable baseline for usage while allowing easy expansion through scalable add-on bundles as demand grows. This approach enables organizations to secure AI environments immediately while planning efficiently for future scale.

​

For enterprises seeking dedicated, high-performance infrastructure, the Physical Appliance model provides a hardware-based solution through a one-time capital investment. Designed for intensive enterprise workloads, this option includes a range of appliance configurations — from standard enterprise hardware to advanced platforms such as the NVIDIA DGX Series - delivering exceptional standalone performance for AI threat prevention and content security. After the initial purchase, ongoing costs are simplified through an annual maintenance fee, typically calculated as a fixed percentage of the original list price. This predictable cost structure helps organizations maximize the long-term value of their hardware investment while protecting critical AI infrastructure.

​

Nex Firewall also provides a flexible Virtual Appliance model that follows a subscription-based annual pricing structure, making it well suited for organizations operating under an OPEX-focused strategy. The standard virtual appliance includes core security capabilities together with integrated features such as Nex Firewall Secure Chat support and a dedicated logging appliance. A key advantage of this model is its modular deployment flexibility, allowing organizations to tailor the environment to their operational and compliance requirements. Deployment options include a fully on-premises configuration (Virtual Security Proxy with an On-Premise Virtual AI Brain), a hybrid setup (On-Premise Virtual Security Proxy with a Cloud AI Brain), or a configuration that combines a virtual security proxy with a physical AI Brain appliance. This adaptable architecture allows businesses to align deployment models with data residency, security, and infrastructure requirements while seamlessly leveraging the full range of Nex Firewall protection technologies.
