Palo Alto. Can be expensive. When I last purchased though, it was cheaper to buy the PA, than to replace our outdated ASAs with new versions and renew our Websense subscription. You have to let the sales folks know you are looking at competitive products.
It is my opinion that the PA platform is the most secure gateway device out there currently. Additionally they have an add-on service (Wildfire) that can evaluate traffic for zero day threats and IPTs.
