My impression is that opnsense is a good traditional UTM firewall.

But what about the future?
Is some support for concepts like zero trust that are difficult or impossible to implement with a traditional firewall planned?
What might such a thing look like in an open source firewall?

Let's start with "what does it look like in products that are available and tested now?" Any pointers?

I looked at an interesting solution from cloudflare, "Cloudflare Teams". I think it shows what something like that could look like, but it's not there yet.
I have seen something from fortinet, which I'm not sure is the way to go, and on monday I have a one hour session with checkpoint, so we'll see about that.
Also at the start of december, I'm going to attend a presentation by sophos, but I don't believe whatevery they will be showing has the potential to work, based off prior experience.

Please do share your findings!
