    Sold by: Sophos 
    Deployed on AWS
    Sophos Firewall for AWS delivers advanced threat protection for AWS environments and assets. Protect networks, applications, ensure security of ingress and egress traffic, and maintain high web-application availability.

    Overview

    Sophos Firewall integrates leading technologies into a single next-generation solution without compromising security. Highlights include deep packet inspection with IPS, ATP, URL filtering, and in-depth reporting; Bidirectional AV for WAF with authentication offloading, path-based routing, country-level blocking; and self-service SSL and HTML5 VPRN technologies to make connecting from anywhere and on any device a reality - without administrative overhead.

    Preconfigured templates and centralized policy management save time managing user, application and network policies, and provide pre-packaged web filtering, IPS, traffic shaping and app control policies for Active/Active and Active/Passive deployments spanning multiple availability zones.

    Sophos synchronized security allows organizations to link endpoints, cloud workloads, and firewall to relay health status and immediately to respond to threats on your network.

    Part of a complete SaaS security platform. A selection of Sophos AWS solutions are included below with more at <www.sophos.com/cloud >.

    If you have questions about Sophos solutions or need assistance with deployment and configuration, contact us at aws.marketplace@sophos.com .

    The cloud formation template to deploy Sophos Firewall will optionally collect Sophos Central account credentials (email and password used to login to https://central.sophos.com ). These credentials are used only once by the firewall to connect to Sophos Central and enable management services. This step is optional, and can be performed at any time after deployment, following the instructions available here.

    Sophos Standalone Firewall for AWS

    This CloudFormation template allows you to deploy a Sophos XG Firewall Standalone. The template will bring up a single XG Firewall instance with two ENI network interfaces attached to the instance, each interface is in a distinct subnet. The first interface is dedicated to the private subnet to be protected by the XG Firewall, the second interface is dedicated to the public/external subnet. The IGW is automatically attache to the public subnet.

    CloudFormation Template (CFT)

    AWS CloudFormation templates are JSON or YAML-formatted text files that simplify provisioning and management on AWS. The templates describe the service or application architecture you want to deploy, and AWS CloudFormation uses those templates to provision and configure the required services (such as Amazon EC2 instances or Amazon RDS DB instances). The deployed application and associated resources are called a "stack."

    Additional details

    Usage instructions

    You can manage your Sophos XG Firewall on AWS from the Web Interface using HTTPS (TCP port 4444), the command shell using SSH (TCP port 22), and via the API.

    Sophos XG Firewall requires a valid email address for administration purposes. This email address is not used for any other purpose and remains local to the Sophos XG Firewall AMI.

    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    What I like best about Sophos Firewall is its balance of simplicity and intelligence. The interface is clean, intuitive, and makes network management easy even for complex setups. Features like synchronized security, application control, and advanced threat protection work together seamlessly to give complete visibility and protection.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    There’s not much to dislike. The only minor thing is that firmware updates sometimes take a few extra minutes to complete, but that’s understandable considering the system’s depth and stability. The overall experience remains smooth, and each update usually brings meaningful performance and security enhancements.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Sophos Firewall has helped us strengthen our overall network security while simplifying management. It has eliminated recurring issues like bandwidth misuse, unauthorized access, and unmanaged VPN connections. The web and application filtering have improved productivity across departments, while the integrated IPS and sandboxing have reduced malware incidents significantly.

    User-Friendly, Cost-Effective, and Excellent Support with Sophos Firewall

    Reviewed on Oct 26, 2025

    What do you like best about the product?
    User friendly dashboard- Easy to configure and almost all of the configurations available in GUI.
    Cost Optimistic Solution- With basic network protection subscription can create a number of SSL & IPsec VPN connections based on firewall VPN throughput, no additional cost for MFA setup, we can use software authentication for MFA for all SSL VPN & admin users.
    Easy to manage- Centrally manage all branch firewalls via Sophos central cloud dashboard, no additional license required.
    By using WAF add-on subscription, without additional appliances can secure internal web applications by off-loading SSL/TLS in gateway level.
    Log Storage- Firewall comes with minimum 128GB inbuilt storage for logs retention and designed to delete old logs when it reaches threshold limit.
    Customer Support- Quick response while raising support via support portal and mostly they call and ask for remote support. The response over global support number is very appreciable and they will loop to the respective team immediately.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Configuration and controls via CLI is limited, applying bulk configuration through CLI is not possible. But, API integration is available, maybe it will address the requirement.
    We only enable alerts and notification for predefined events in GUI, no options for custom events.
    They release firmware updates quickly, sometimes they will revoke the update and push to install alternative versions.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    No WLAN controller required- Manage Sophos wireless access points via firewall GUI and monitor access points client status in firewall dashboard, AP's will get software updates from firewall.
    Providing Visibility From Endpoints- We can identify infected endpoints in the network by integrating the firewall with Sophos EPS. EPS agents share the list of applications used at endpoint level with firewall, we can block the applications at network level also.
    Centrally manage- By connecting firewall to central account, securely manage the console globally, enable auto device backup to cloud and centrally store logs.
