Firewall Features: Buyers Guide
Most small to medium-sized businesses are looking for hardware, software, or both to prevent breaches, stop advanced threats and give exceptional visibility into the network and security operations. As a Sophos provider, Spectra Networks prefers the world's best visibility, protection, and response with the Sophos XG Firewall. The features we find the most helpful for our clients include:
Advanced Threat Protection
This important feature can identify bots, advanced persistent threats (APTs), and other threats that are already operating on your network. This ensures malicious traffic detection, botnet detection, and command and control (C&C) call-home traffic detection. Sophos XG Firewall uses powerful next-gen protection technologies like deep learning and intrusion so your network will never go down.Identify and Isolate Compromised Systems
To prevent data loss and further infections, the Sophos XG Firewall will immediately identify not only the infected host but also the user and process in the event of an incident. It also has the power to automatically block or isolate compromised systems until they can be investigated and cleaned up.
