Head-to-head

WatchGuard vs F5

F5 carries 10.9× the disclosed CVE volume of WatchGuard. Volume reflects disclosure practice and install base as much as code quality — read it with the severity mix. Sourced from the NIST NVD; lower counts indicate a smaller disclosed vulnerability surface — not necessarily lower risk.
