Much More Than A Firewall

Firewall
What is a Firewall?
You should protect your Business Internet connection with a Firewall.
A Firewall effectively creates a ‘buffer zone’ between your computers (the LAN side) and the outside world (the WAN side). Within this buffer zone, incoming traffic is analysed to find out whether or not it should be allowed onto your network.
Sophos Firewall is a smart, active firewall – it listens to traffic coming onto your network (WAN) and analysis if traffic should be to pass to your network (LAN). As it inspects traffic, and Viruses or Malware are removed at source before they get to your network. Any Spam destined to your Inbox gets stopped in its tracks and any IPS anomaly gets dropped. (Intrusion Prevention System is a network security technology that examines network traffic flows to detect and prevent vulnerability exploits.)
Small and medium businesses are as much at risk from the targeted attacks of today as large enterprises. Your business needs to protect it’s network effectively from external and internal threats, but that doesn’t mean you need a large security budget.
