SonicWall is a Milpitas, California cybersecurity company that has been defending small and medium-sized businesses, enterprises, and managed service providers from cyber crime for more than 25 years. The company builds network security firewalls, secure access service edge (SASE) offerings, cloud email security, endpoint protection, and managed detection and response services. The SonicOS operating system that runs on TZ, NSa, NSsp, and NSv next-generation firewalls exposes an on-device REST API (SonicOS API) for configuration, monitoring, and policy management, but SonicWall does not publish a centralized OpenAPI specification — API documentation is shipped per SonicOS release as HTML and PDF reference manuals at sonicwall.com/support. SonicWall additionally operates the Capture Advanced Threat Protection (Capture ATP) cloud sandbox API and the Cloud Secure Edge (CSE) management surface, with reference SDKs in Node.js, Python, and PHP published in the github.com/sonicwall organization. The company also publishes CloudFormation and Azure Resource Manager templates for deploying NSv virtual firewalls. SonicWall's revenue model is firewall hardware sales, security service subscriptions, cloud security subscriptions, and managed services — there is no public consumer developer program or self-service signup for the firewall APIs (the SonicOS API is accessed against the customer's own firewall device).
