We designed the new Sophos XG Firewall to meet our high standards for security made simple, and with the admin in mind. It should be comfortable and familiar to anyone with experience using a Cyberoam or Sophos UTM. However, we want to help you get the most out of your XG Firewall, so we’ve created a comprehensive library of “How-To” videos, […]

Sophos is pleased to announce that we received a prestigious Channel Excellence Award this week from IDG’s ChannelPartner magazine.
