Common questions about Sophos XGS Firewall & MDR.
What is a next generation firewall?
A next-generation firewall (NGFW) goes beyond traditional firewalls with deep packet inspection, intrusion prevention, application control, and threat intelligence. Sophos XGS uses Xstream architecture for high-performance TLS inspection, AI-powered threat intelligence, and Synchronized Security that links firewall and endpoint protection for automatic coordinated response. Request a demo to see it in action.
What are managed detection and response services?
Managed Detection and Response (MDR) is a service where security experts monitor your environment 24/7, hunt for threats, investigate suspicious activity, and take response actions including threat isolation. Sophos MDR integrates with XGS Firewall and endpoint protection for complete coverage.
Do I need a firewall if I have endpoint protection?
Yes. Endpoint protection secures individual devices; a firewall protects your network perimeter from external threats. Sophos Synchronized Security links both automatically for coordinated threat response. Together they provide complete coverage neither can achieve alone.
What is the difference between a firewall and intrusion prevention?
A firewall controls network traffic based on rules. Intrusion Prevention (IPS) goes deeper, analysing traffic content to detect and block attack patterns. Sophos XGS includes both NGFW and advanced IPS, plus threat intelligence and Synchronized Security — all in one platform.
