Sophos Firewall
Powerful Protection and Performance
Sophos Firewall and XGS Series appliances with dedicated Xstream Flow
Processors enable the ultimate in application acceleration, high-performance
TLS inspection, and powerful threat protection.

Sophos Firewall
1
Powerful Protection and Performance
The Sophos Firewall Xstream architecture is engineered to deliver high levels of
visibility, protection, and performance to address some of the greatest challenges
facing network administrators today.
TLS 1.3 Inspection
Approximately 99% of web traffic is now encrypted, making
it invisible to most firewalls. Many organizations find
themselves powerless to protect their networks from an
increasing amount of ransomware, threats, and potentially
unwanted apps that are exploiting this blind spot.
Sophos Firewall makes efficient and effective TLS
inspection possible without compromising on performance.
Our XGS Series appliances with integrated Xstream Flow
Processors put TLS traffic on the FastPath for accelerated
inspection. Our high-performance TLS inspection engine
supports TLS 1.3 without downgrading, the latest cipher
suites for maximum compatibility, and enhanced visibility
into encrypted traffic flows right on the dashboard.
Deep Packet Inspection
We believe you should never have to decide between
security and performance. Sophos Firewall includes a
high-speed deep packet inspection (DPI) engine to scan
your traffic for threats without a proxy slowing down the
process. The firewall stack can completely offload the
processing to the DPI engine, significantly reducing latency
and improving overall efficiency.
Sophos Firewall blocks the latest ransomware and
breaches with high-performance streaming DPI, including
next-gen IPS, web protection, and app control, as well as
deep learning and sandboxing powered by SophosLabs
Intelix.
Application Acceleration
A significant portion of your network traffic is trusted
business application traffic destined for branch offices,
remote users, or cloud application servers. As such,
no additional security scanning for threats or malware
is needed, and traffic can be intelligently directed to
the FastPath. This reduces latency, optimizes overall
performance, and frees up capacity for traffic that does
need deep packet inspection.
Sophos Firewall accelerates your SaaS, SD-WAN, and cloud
traffic such as VoIP, video, and other trusted applications
automatically or via your policies – putting them on the
FastPath through the Xstream Flow Processor.
SD-WAN
Managing application traffic routing over multiple WAN links
and interconnecting a distributed network are essential
elements of any SD-WAN solution. Oftentimes, these tasks
are much more challenging than they should be.
Sophos Firewall with Xstream SD-WAN provides a powerful,
integrated SD-WAN solution, with performance-based
link selection and routing, load balancing, zero-impact
transitions between links in the event of a disruption,
central cloud-managed orchestration, and Xstream
FastPath acceleration of VPN tunnel traffic. Sophos Firewall
with Xstream SD-WAN is one of the best, most flexible
SD-WAN solutions available in any firewall today.

Sophos Central
Sophos Central is the ultimate cybersecurity cloud management platform to
manage your firewalls and your full portfolio of Sophos security solutions.

activity, and security over time. You get flexible reporting
that combines a variety of built-in reports with powerful
tools that you can use to create your own custom reports,
enabling you to report what you want, how you want.
Ì Increase your visibility into network activity through
analytics
Ì Analyze data to identify security gaps, suspicious user
behavior, or other events requiring policy changes
Ì Use the pre-defined modules or customize
each report for specific use cases
Central Reporting is available at no extra cost for the storage of up to seve days of
report data. Premium options with longer data retention and additional features are
available for optional purchase, either individually or as part of other subscriptions/
bundles.
Zero-Touch Deployment
Zero-touch deployment enables the initial
configuration to be performed in Sophos Central
and exported for loading onto the device from a
flash drive at startup, automatically connecting
the device back to Sophos Central.
Learn more about the Sophos Central Ecosystem at sophos.com/firewall-central.
SD-WAN Orchestration
Sophos Central makes interconnecting SD-WAN overlay
networks between multiple Sophos Firewalls quick
and easy. With just a few clicks, you can setup a full
mesh network, hub-and-spoke topology, or something
in-between, and Sophos Central will automatically

Synchronized SD-WAN: Powerful, Reliable Application Routing
Synchronized SD-WAN harnesses the power of Synchronized Security to optimize
WAN path selection for your important business applications.
With Synchronized Application Control, discovered applications, that would otherwise be
unknown, can be used for traffic-matching criteria in SD-WAN routing policies. This is yet
another way that Synchronized Security can improve the efficiency of your network.
Sophos Firewall

Synchronized Security
Active Threat Response
Sophos Firewall is uniquely integrated with other Sophos
products and services to constantly share threat,
application, and user information across products to
provide enhanced detection and automatic response to
active threats. When a threat or indicator of compromise
is detected, Sophos Firewall automatically coordinates
a response with endpoints, wireless, ZTNA, email, and
other Sophos solutions to stop threats dead in their tracks.
Dynamic firewall rules ensure that compromised devices
are unable to communicate with command-and-control
servers or move around the network.
Sophos Synchronized Security also integrates with Sophos
MDR and XDR, enabling analysts to provide real-time
active threat feed information to the firewall for automatic
response to active threats, dramatically reducing response
time.
Lateral Movement Protection
Lateral Movement Protection automatically isolates
compromised systems at every point in a network to stop
attacks. Healthy endpoints assist by ignoring all traffic from
unhealthy endpoints, enabling complete isolation, even on
the same network segment, to prevent threats and active
adversaries from spreading or stealing data.
Synchronized Application Control
Synchronized Application Control utilizes Security
Heartbeat connections with Sophos endpoints to
automatically identify, classify, and control application
traffic. All encrypted, custom, evasive, and generic HTTP or
HTTPS applications that are currently unidentified will be
revealed.
Synchronized User ID
User authentication is critically important in a next-
generation firewall but often challenging to implement
in a seamless and transparent way. Synchronized User
ID eliminates the need for client or server authentication
agents by sharing the user identity between an endpoint
and the firewall through Security Heartbeat.
What Next-Gen Firewalls See Today
You can’t control what you can’t see. All firewalls today
depend on static application signatures to identify apps.
But those don’t work for most custom, obscure, and
evasive apps or any apps using generic HTTP or HTTPS.
What Sophos Firewall Sees
Sophos Firewall uses Synchronized Security to
automatically identify, classify, and control all unknown
applications, easily blocking the apps you don’t want and
prioritizing the ones you do.

Powerful Protection
See it. Stop it. Secure it.
Our comprehensive next-generation firewall protection has been built to expose hidden risks, block both known and
unknown threats, and automatically respond to incidents.
Exposes hidden risks Automatically responds to incidents
Blocks unknown threats
Superior visibility into unknown
applications, risky activity, suspicious
traffic, and advanced threats
helps you regain control of your
network and get deep insights.
Powerful next-gen protection
technologies like deep learning
and intrusion prevention keep
your organization safe from the
latest hacks and attacks.
Synchronized Security's automatic
threat response instantly identifies
and isolates compromised systems
on your network to prevent
breaches and lateral movement.
Sophos offers the full network stack managed from a single console: firewalls, switches, and access points.
Sophos Managed Detection and Response
More customers trust Sophos for MDR than any other vendor. Using your Sophos Firewall in combination with
Sophos MDR and Sophos Endpoint Protection gives you unmatched protection and more efficient remediation.

Sophos Wireless Protection
Simple, Secure, Reliable
Sophos offers three different options for wireless protection:
Firewall as a Controller
Using Sophos Firewall as a wireless controller, your Sophos access points are automatically discovered when
they’re connected, allowing you to configure a variety of corporate, guest, or contractor wireless networks quickly
and easily. This option supports Wi-Fi 5 APX Series access points only.
Hardware Appliances with Integrated Wi-Fi
All our XGS Series desktop appliances are available with an integrated wireless access point. Coverage can be
further extended by adding Sophos APX Series access points.
Cloud-Managed Wi-Fi
Our Sophos Central-managed wireless solution is the best option for greater scalability, enhanced security, and
support for the latest technology with our Wi-Fi 6/6E AP6 Series access points. APX Series models are also
supported.
Our indoor APX Series access points support Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac Wave 2) and can be managed on premises from
your firewall console. Management in the Sophos Central cloud platform is currently also available at no extra cost.
