Description

With bandwidth requirements constantly increasing, network security appliances need to do more than ever before. The Sophos SG Series appliances are built to provide optimal performance, versatility and efficiency to meet all your security needs.

The Sophos SG Series appliances are designed to provide the optimal balance between performance and protection – for diverse IT environments. Whether you need a solution for a small remote office, want to protect your school campus, or are a global organization requiring high-availability and enterprise-grade features, our SG Series appliances are an ideal fit.

Versatile: Appliances to suit every environment

Our broad product line-up makes it easy for you to choose the right appliance. A higher model number indicates higher throughput and an increased number of ports or connectivity options.

And as every software subscription is available on every appliance, you can flexibly size the solution to fit your budget and your individual security needs. Next-generation firewall features or all-in-one security on a single box, it’s your choice.

Rapid: Proven performance on all models

Our appliances are built upon the most advanced Intel technology. Optimized use of multi-core processors allows consolidation of your security solutions without a performance trade-off.

With faster than ever firewall, IPS and VPN throughput, our SG Series appliances effortlessly handle multiple tasks simultaneously. Plus, you can easily scale up by dynamically clustering up to 10 units without external load balancers.

Responsive: Technology built to process data in real-time

Your network is constantly changing so your protection needs to be adaptive. All our appliances have integrated high-speed hard drives (in many cases SSDs) for local storage of spam quarantine data and faster access to comprehensive reports and real-time logs.

Accelerated in-memory content scanning in secure proxy mode makes your defenses more effective and efficient.

Reliable: Engineered for business – today and tomorrow

Using the latest Intel technology, our products provide the utmost in flexibility. Add to your protection as you need it – without changing or upgrading your hardware. That means you benefit from future software and performance enhancements which guarantees the best possible value for money.

Redundancy features such as an additional hard-drive or power supply are available on the 1U SG 450 and on both of our 2U appliances.

Modular: Flexible configuration options on many models

Configure your hardware to suit your infrastructure and change it as and when you need to. Our optional FleXi Port LAN modules give you the freedom to select the connectivity you need – copper, fiber, 10GbE – you decide.

FleXi Port modules are interchangeable within a range, e.g. 1U, so, for example, you can use the same module with all of your 1U appliances which saves you money if you upgrade to a higher model at a later date.
