Sophos Firewall
Sophos Firewall includes the latest advanced protection technologies and threat intelligence. This includes Streaming DPI engine with web protection and IPS, Accelerated TLS 1.3 encrypted traffic inspection. Other features include Zero-day AI and machine learning analysis, as well as Real-time cloud sandboxing and DNS Protection.
The best part is, you don’ t need to compromise on performance. This is thanks to our programmable Xstream architecture. It offloads benign traffic flows and crypto operations as well as VPN and select application routing. This results in accelerating these network traffic flows and creates performance headroom for traffic that actually needs deep packet inspection.
In addition, Sophos Firewall leverages the Sophos Cloud to ensure that your organization is protected from the latest threats. It also further maximizes your firewall’s performance. You get the latest AI and machine learning technology from SophosLabs working to identify previously unseen threats and malicious URLs.
Using a common cloud, any new threat attacking a single Sophos customer is instantly shared across all our customers, blocking it everywhere. In addition, offloading this analysis from your firewall to the cloud boosts your performance even further. Datasheet
