Sophos XG Firewall
Sophos XG Firewall provides comprehensive next-generation firewall protection that exposes hidden risks, blocks unknown threats, and automatically responds to incidents.
Exposes hidden risks
Sophos XG Firewall provides unprecedented visibility into top risk users, unknown apps, advanced threats, suspicious payloads and much more. You also get rich on-box reporting included at no extra charge and the option to add Sophos iView for centralized reporting across multiple firewalls.
Blocks unknown threats
Sophos XG Firewall provides all the latest advanced technology you need to protect your network from ransomware and advanced threats including top-rated IPS, Advanced Threat Protection, Cloud Sandboxing, Dual AV, Web and App Control, Email Protection and a fullfeatured Web Application Firewall. And it’s easy to setup and manage.
Automatically responds to incidents
XG Firewall is the only network security solution that is able to fully identify the source of an infection on your network and automatically limit access to other network resources in response. This is made possible with our unique Sophos Security Heartbeat™ that shares telemetry and health status between Sophos endpoints and your firewall.
Potent, powerful... fast
We’ve engineered XG Firewall to deliver outstanding performance and security efficiency for the best return on your investment. Our appliances are built using Intel multi-core technology, solid-state drives, and accelerated in-memory content scanning. In addition, Sophos FastPath packet optimization technology ensures you’ll always get maximum throughput.
Simply manage multiple firewalls
Sophos Central is the ultimate cloud-management platform - for all your Sophos products. It makes day-to-day setup, monitoring, and management of your XG Firewall easy. It also provides helpful features such as alerting, backup management, one-click firmware updates and rapid provisioning of new firewalls. Optionally, Sophos Firewall Manager (SFM) provides powerful multi-device management tools for easy provisioning of consistent policies across your entire estate. And if you also want to consolidate reporting across multiple XG, SG, and Cyberoam appliances you can easily do that with Sophos iView.
Security features you can’t get anywhere else
XG Firewall includes a number of innovations that not only make your job a lot easier, but also ensure your network is more secure.
Synchronized Security
An industry first, Synchronized Security links your endpoints and your firewall to enable unique insights and coordination. Security Heartbeat™ relays Endpoint health status and enables your firewall to immediately identify and respond to a compromised system on your network. The firewall can isolate systems until they can be investigated and cleaned up. Another Synchronized Security feature, Synchronized App Control, also enables the firewall to query the endpoint to determine the source of unknown traffic on the network.
Unified Firewall Rules
User identity takes enforcement to a whole new layer with our identity based policy technology enabling user level controls over applications, bandwidth and other network resources regardless of IP-address, location, network or device. It literally takes firewall policy to a whole new layer.
A Firewall That Thinks Like You
Pre-defined policy templates let you protect common applications like Microsoft Exchange or SharePoint quickly and easily. Simply select them from a list, provide some basic information and the template takes care of the rest. It sets all the inbound/outbound firewall rules and security settings for you automatically – displaying the final policy in a statement in plain English.
Insights into Top Risk Users
The Sophos User Threat Quotient (UTQ) indicator is a unique feature which provides actionable intelligence on user behavior. Our firewall correlates each user’s surfing habits and activity with advanced threat triggers and history to identify users with risk-prone behavior.
Flexible deployment, no compromise
Unlike our competitors, whether you choose hardware, software, virtual or Microsoft Azure, we don’t make you compromise – every feature is available on every model and form-factor.
The Xstream Advantage
The XG Firewall Xstream architecture is engineered to deliver extreme levels of visibility, protection, and performance to help address some of the greatest challenges facing network administrators today.
Xstream SSL Inspection
According to the latest statistics, approximately 80% of web traffic is encrypted, making it invisible to most firewalls. An increasing amount of malware and potentially unwanted apps exploit the fact that organizations are simply not using SSL inspection. Network administrators' main fears are that SSL inspection will have a performance impact or cause something to break, impacting the user experience. XG Firewall removes the blind spots caused by encrypted traffic by allowing you to use SSL inspection whilst maintaining performance efficiency.
Xstream DPI Engine
We believe you should never have to decide between security and performance. XG Firewall includes a highspeed 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 so improving overall efficiency. XG Firewall provides robust deep packet threat protection in a single streaming engine for AV, IPS, Web, App Control and SSL inspection.
Xstream Network Flow FastPath
Traffic which is known to be secure can be offloaded to the Xstream Network Flow FastPath. This accelerated path for trusted traffic boosts performance dramatically by freeing up resources from unnecessary traffic inspection tasks. This is particularly important for voice and video applications which are very sensitive to latency and so can quickly lead to a degradation of the user experience. XG Firewall includes automatic and policy-based intelligent offloading for trusted traffic processing at wire speed.
Sophos Central
Sophos Central is at the heart of everything we do. Our cloud management platform provides a single pane of glass to not only manage your firewalls, but also your full portfolio of Sophos security solutions.
Simply manage multiple firewalls
Sophos Central is the ultimate cloud-management platform - for all your Sophos products. It makes day-to-day setup, monitoring, and management of your XG Firewall easy. It also provides helpful features such as alerting, backup management, one-click firmware updates and rapid provisioning of new firewalls.

What's New:
Xstream Architecture
Sophos is pleased to introduce the new Xstream Architecture for XG Firewall, a new streaming packet processing architecture that provides extreme levels of protection and performance. The new architecture includes:
- Xstream SSL Inspection: Organizations can enable SSL inspection on their networks without compromising network performance or user experience. It delivers highperformance, high connection-capacity support for TLS 1.3 and all modern cipher suites providing extreme SSL inspection performance across all ports, protocols, and applications. It also comes equipped with enterprise-grade controls to optimize security, privacy, and performance. A new widget on the Control Center provides unprecedented visibility into SSL-encrypted traffic enabling quick troubleshooting in the event of any compatibility issues, to maintain the ultimate user experience.
- Xstream DPI Engine: Enables comprehensive threat protection in a single highperformance streaming DPI engine with proxyless scanning of all traffic for AV, IPS, and web threats as well as providing Application Control and SSL Inspection. Pattern matching on decrypted traffic makes patterns more effective and provides increased protection from hash/pattern changing applications such as Psiphon proxy.
- Xstream Network Flow FastPath: Provides the ultimate in performance by intelligently accelerating traffic processing to transfer trusted traffic at wire speeds. The FastPath offloading can be controlled through policy to accelerate important cloud application traffic, or intelligently by the DPI engine based on traffic characteristics.
What’s new in XG Firewall v18
Threat Intelligence Analysis
XG Firewall gains an added layer of artificial intelligence protection. All suspicious files are now subject to threat intelligence analysis in parallel with full sandbox analysis. Files are checked against SophosLabs’ massive threat intelligence database and subjected to our industry-leading deep learning, which identifies new and unknown malware quickly and efficiently – often rendering a verdict in seconds – to stop the latest zero-day threats before they get on the network. Threat Intelligence Analysis is a new feature that is included as part of the Sandstorm Protection license (all PLUS bundles) at no extra charge.
Threat Intelligence Reporting
Threat Intelligence Reporting adds a new Control Center widget to highlight all suspicious file downloads. The widget enables one-click drill-down to detailed forensics reports on all suspicious file activity. A quick summary view for each file provides a traffic-light style (red, yellow, green) indication of the analysis after antivirus scanning, threat intelligence analysis, and sandboxing. Detailed reports provide an-depth view of the verdict, including illustrated analysis by multiple machine learning models, details and screenshots of behaviors seen during Sandstorm analysis, and an in-depth breakdown of the file’s features and attributes, together with malware scan results and insight from VirusTotal.
Sophos Central Firewall Reporting and Management
This release includes support for new firewall reporting and management capabilities being launched simultaneously on Sophos Central, including a rich, powerful new reporting suite and group firewall management tools.
NAT Enhancements – Decoupled NAT Rules and Linked NAT Rule
XG Firewall’s NAT configuration receives some major updates. NAT rules are now decoupled from firewall rules, enabling more powerful and flexible configuration options, including Source (SNAT) and Destination (DNAT) in a single rule. A new NAT rule wizard enables you to quickly and easily create complex NAT rules with just a few clicks.
In addition, a new linked NAT rule feature follows the matching criteria of the Firewall Rule. Linked NAT Rule can also be added and edited in place while creating/editing firewall rules. Only the source translation configuration needs to be selected for Linked NAT Rule.
Firewall Rules Management Improvements
Firewall rules management includes a new ‘Add Filter’ option with several fields/ conditions from which to choose. Adding a filter makes it easier to find firewall rules based on the selected filter criteria. Once selected, filters stay selected even when the administrator moves to other configuration screens. Administrators can manage multiple firewall rules at the same time (e.g. select multiple rules to delete, enable/ disable, attach to a group, etc.). Movement of rules across screens is possible, providing ease of use and management for larger rule sets. Within the firewall rule there is an exclusion feature that provides a “negate” option in the matching criteria to reduce the management and ordering overhead of multiple rules. There’s also a UI option to reset the data transfer counter for a firewall rule to improve troubleshooting.
Enhanced DDNS Support
Provides support for enhanced DDC service HTTPS-based DDNS by adding five more DDNS providers – No-IP, DNS-O-Static, Google DNS, Namecheap, and FreeDNS.
SD-WAN Application Routing and Synchronized SD-WAN
Optimized application routing and path selection is often an important objective in SD-WAN implementations – to ensure important business applications are routed over preferred WAN links. This release adds user and group application-based traffic selection criteria to XG Firewall’s SD-WAN routing configuration. Synchronized SD-WAN, a new Sophos Synchronized Security feature, offers additional benefits with SD-WAN application routing. Synchronized SD-WAN leverages the added clarity and reliability of application identification that comes with the sharing of Synchronized Application Control information between Sophos-managed endpoints and XG Firewall. Synchronized Application Control can positively identify 100% of all networked applications, including evasive, encrypted, obscure, and custom applications and now these previously unidentified applications can also be added to SD-WAN routing policies. This provides a level of application routing control and reliability that other firewalls can’t match.
Alerts and Notifications
There is a new option to choose from dozens of system- and threatrelated alerts, and have notifications sent via email or SNMP. Intelligent IPS Signature Selection XG Firewall will receive IPS signatures based on a number of intelligent filtering criteria such as age, vendor, vulnerability type, and CVSS (Common Vulnerability Scoring System) to optimize protection and performance.
DKIM and BATV Anti-Spam Protection
Anti-spam protection is improved with support for DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) which detects forged sender addresses and Bounce Address Tag Validation (BATV) to determine whether the bounce address specified in the received email is valid, and reject backscatter spam.
Kerberos Authentication and NTLM
This release adds Kerberos authentication alongside the existing NTLM support for Microsoft Active Directory SSO, extending the range of authentication tools available for customers.
Radius Timeout with Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
For customers using 2FA with Radius Server Authentication, the timeout value is now configurable, allowing additional time to finish the authentication flow when necessary.
SNMPv3
Support for SNMPv3 is added providing more flexibility and security over SNMPv2.
Interface Renaming
Interfaces can be renamed, making networking configuration easier and more intuitive.
Improved Synchronized Application Control Verdict
In the event of a pattern-based match conflict, Synchronized Application Control Verdict will be adhered to for more accurate application control.
DHCP Relay Enhancements for Dynamic Routing
Synchronizes dynamic routing updates (learned routes from OSPF) to DHCP relay, eliminating the need for manual reconfiguration.
Secure Syslog and Logs in the Standard Syslog Format
Provides the option to fetch logs in the standard syslog format using secure TLS.
Dynamic GeoIP (IP to Country Mapping) Database
The GeoIP database is now updated dynamically in real time from Up2Date. Be sure to always use the appropriate country-specific filters and policies.
VMware Tools Upgrade and Integration with VMware Site Recovery Manager (SRM)
Supports virtual device integration of the latest VMware Tools version (v10.3.10) with reboot, shutdown, and clone-like functionalities. The release also supports integration with Site Recovery Manager (SRM), the disaster recovery and business continuity solution from VMware which automates the transfer of virtual machines to a local or remote recovery site.
Jumbo Frame Support
Jumbo frames with more than 1500 byte payloads are now supported for added networking flexibility in high-bandwidth environments.
Wildcard Domain Support in WAF
XG Firewall now supports wildcard domains for WAF (Web Application Firewall). Administrators can configure wildcard subdomains, (e.g. *.example.com) for both HTTP and HTTPS.
Log Viewer Enhancements
The log viewer gets several enhancements with one-click actions available right from the logs to narrow search results, filter log entries, or create or modify policies on the fly. Options include the choice to disable signatures, block a source IP address, edit interfaces, and modify IPS, App Control, or web filtering policies.
Web Policy Enhancements
Browsing quotas have been added to web policies, allowing administrators to set time quotas for browsing selected website categories. Users can choose how and when to consume their daily time quota.
High Availability (HA) Enhancements
New enhancements enable plug-and-play high availability deployments with greater flexibility and business redundancy. A preconfigured HA port on every device enables quick and easy HA deployments by simply connecting the two ports together and then acknowledging and activating HA. HA configurations also include a configurable failback strategy, ideal for remote-site HA deployments, with options for manual synchronization and time out tuning. It is now possible to perform firmware updates, rollbacks, and other tasks such as port monitoring lists and assigning multiple IP addresses to primary and auxiliary appliances while HA is active. In addition, deploying more than one HA pair in a single network is easier due to the elimination of conflicts arising from any dependency on a virtual MAC address HA architecture.
