It gives tight network protection and the resources within with a user friendly interface. The security heartbeat and synchronized application control makes Sophos Firewall stand out from the rest!
What do you dislike about the product?
It doesn't have a feature for administrators to stop a computer on the network that is congesting the bandwidth
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In the past we used to have zero-day exploits and remote access challenges of network resources for employees especially during COVID-19 pandemic. Sophos Firewall uses AI-powered threat intelligence (Sophos X-Ops) and deep packet inspection to block known and emerging threats in real time. The VPN SSL connection and now the latest Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) has provided for secure remote connections.
