Network Security & Firewalls

XGS Series | SMB and branch office: 2nd Gen XGS desktop models

Unlock supreme desktop performance, improved energy efficiency, and a wealth of new high-speed connectivity options.

Sophos second-generation XGS Series desktop appliances deliver double the performance of our first-generation models while cutting power consumption in half. All these desktop firewalls include 2.5 GE interfaces, allowing traffic to flow freely and without bottlenecks, from your firewall to your 2.5 GE switch to your Wi-Fi 6 access point.

Customers with noise-sensitive environments such as healthcare, education, and retail will love the whisper-quiet operation of the fanless XGS 88 and XGS 108 models. Using the expansion bay, an optional 5G module adds either redundant cellular connectivity or cost-effective 5G fixed wireless access (FWA).

The XGS 88 to XGS 128 models feature a streamlined, single-CPU architecture that utilizes virtual FastPath technology for traffic acceleration (in combination with Sophos Firewall OS v21 and higher). As our gateway model to the distributed edge, the XGS 138 boasts a dedicated Xstream Flow processor for hardware acceleration and two 10 GE SFP+ interfaces for high-speed fiber connectivity. All models except the XGS 138 are optionally available with built-in Wi-Fi.

Security for cloud and hybrid networks

Get comprehensive protection for on-premises and multi-cloud deployment using the firewall built in and for the cloud.

Multi-layered security to stop zero-day threats.

Frictionless, cloud-hosted Advanced Threat Protection detects and blocks advanced threats, including zero-day and ransomware attacks.

Global intelligence, global response.

Gain rapid protection against the newest threats with the help of a global threat intelligence network fed by millions of data collection points.

Protect your data, users, and workloads wherever they reside.

Modern cyber threats such as ransomware and advanced persistent threats, targeted attacks, and zero-day threats, require progressively sophisticated defense techniques that balance accurate threat detection with fast response times. Barracuda CloudGen Firewall offers a comprehensive set of next-generation firewall technologies to ensure real-time network protection against a broad range of network threats, vulnerabilities, and exploits, including SQL injections, cross-site scripting, denial of service attacks, trojans, viruses, worms, spyware, and many more.

Barracuda's firewalls can be deployed across multiple physical locations as well as in Microsoft Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud Platform.

Mitigate cyber-risks with Barracuda's multi-layered security approach.

The polymorphic nature of modern cyber-threats renders signature-based defense mechanisms inadequate. Comprehensive, reliable protection against advanced persistent threats requires a layered approach. Barracuda CloudGen Firewall provides multiple layers of detection including advanced threat signatures, behavioral and heuristic analysis, static code analysis, and finally comprehensive sandboxing, to provide accurate detection and in-depth protection against ransomware, malware, and other advanced cyber-attacks.

Stop zero-hour attacks with Barracuda Advanced Threat Protection.

The core of Barracuda Advanced Threat Protection is a comprehensive full-emulation sandbox that will 'detonate' any attachment that is not conclusively analyzed by the preceding layers. Once a new threat is identified and a signature is created, the information is pushed to the pre-filtering layers. The next time the same threat attempts to enter your network, it will be blocked without the need for repeating the resource-intensive sandbox analysis. This ensures that sandboxing is used as efficiently as possible and without significantly impacting operations.

Stay ahead of new threats with Barracuda's global threat intelligence network.

The Advanced Threat Protection service is connected to Barracuda's global threat intelligence network to provide real-time protection from the latest threats. Barracuda collects threat data from millions of sources around the world across all threat vectors including network, email, website attacks, and web browser threats. Once a threat is identified the information is made available to all security solutions connected to the service, making your threat defense continuously better and more effective.

Simplify your security deployment in the cloud.

Fully leverage the benefits of SaaS and public-cloud services and infrastructures with simple, automated deployment, configuration, and management. Purpose-built for dispersed networks and cloud environments, Barracuda CloudGen Firewall makes cloud deployment easy with templates, APIs, and deep integration with cloud native features. Effortlessly roll out hardware to remote sites that lack qualified IT personnel with Zero-Touch Deployment.
