Why should customers switch to Sophos?
There are many benefits of choosing the Sophos XG Firewall. Tell your customers how they will benefit from:
- Better visibility – We use telemetry from the endpoint to automatically identify and expose hidden risks, and our endpoint integration can provide automated responses to incidents. Sophos also identifies top risk users based on browsing habits and advanced threat infections, and the Cloud Application Visibility can identify shadow IT and at-risk data.
- Better protection – Unified Firewall rules define policies and settings for antivirus, SSL inspection, sandboxing, IPS, QoS, web filtering, and app control. The XG Firewall uses deep-learning technology in the Sophos Sandstorm solution to catch previously unseen malware. We use the best technology from industry-leading, next-generation endpoint protection solutions. And we use exploit prevention to identify malware exploits and ransomware before they get onto your network.
- Better management and reporting – Our XG Firewall solution provides fully integrated, on-box reporting and log storage, and we use high-performance SSDs at no extra charge to you. We also provide free Sophos Central management to manage your firewalls along with all your IT security products, such as endpoint, server, mobile, and wireless.
This offer is valid for all XG Series appliances except 86/86w/106/106/all Enterprise Guard appliances.
Customers not currently using a Sophos Firewall just need to provide proof that they’re replacing a competitive firewall (e.g. model and serial number).
