Network Security Expert Tip
Sophos' recommendation for a resilient firewall set-up is two hardware devices*, configured to automatically failover, in the event that the primary box stops working. Sophos will be contacting customers with one firewall to discuss their current firewall setup.
To learn more, fill out the form below or email us to book a consultation with our cyber security expert. Grey Matter is a Sophos Gold Partner.
*Additional firewalls should be the same model as your customer's primary hardware device.
