Q: Why does my small business need an enterprise-class firewall?

Your small business may not have thousands of employees, but that doesn’t mean cybercriminals will ignore you. In fact, small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) are prime targets for cyberattacks because they often have weaker security than large enterprises.

Click to expand the following sections to see why investing in an enterprise-class firewall, like a Sophos XGS, is essential for your business:

A: Stronger Security Against Modern Threats

Next-Gen Protection:
Basic firewalls only filter traffic based on ports and protocols, while enterprise-grade firewalls offer deep packet inspection (DPI), intrusion prevention (IPS), and zero-day threat protection.
Ransomware & Malware Defense:
With built-in AI-driven threat intelligence and sandboxing, enterprise firewalls block sophisticated malware before it reaches your network.

A: Better Network Performance and Control

Traffic Prioritization (QoS):
Ensure critical business applications (VoIP, cloud services) get priority over non-essential traffic.
Application Control:
Block risky apps (torrenting, gaming, shadow IT) to keep employees focused and reduce security risks.

A: Secure Remote Work and VPN

SSL/IPSec VPN:
Employees working remotely need a secure way to access your network.
Zero Trust and Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA):
Limit access based on user identity, device security, and location.

A: Advanced Threat Intelligence and Automated Response

AI-Powered Threat Detection:
Enterprise-class firewalls leverage real-time global threat intelligence to detect and block emerging threats.
Synchronized Security (Sophos XGS + Intercept X):
If a device is infected, the firewall can automatically isolate it from the network to stop the spread.

A: Compliance & Data Protection

If your business handles customer data, payment information, or confidential records, compliance with PIPEDA, GDPR, PCI-DSS, PHIPA, etc. requires strong security controls.
Enterprise firewalls offer Data Loss Prevention (DLP) and encrypted traffic inspection to ensure compliance.

A: Scalability for Future Growth

A small business today can grow into a mid-sized business tomorrow. An enterprise-class firewall ensures your network is ready for expansion without needing a costly upgrade.

Final Thought: It’s Not About Size—It’s About Risk

Cybercriminals don’t care if you’re a 10-person shop or a Fortune 500 company—if your security is weak, you’re a target. A low-end router with basic firewall rules isn’t enough. An enterprise-class firewall provides proactive, intelligent, and automated protection to keep your business safe.

Synchronized Security

We combine Sophos XGS Firewalls with Intercept X Endpoint Security to create a security system that works together seamlessly. This setup allows our systems to communicate instantly and tackle threats automatically, stopping potential issues before they can harm your business. This approach not only speeds up our response time but also makes your overall security stronger.

Intercept X Endpoint Security

Sophos Intercept X provides comprehensive endpoint protection, utilizing AI-powered threat detection, anti-ransomware technology, and advanced EDR and optional MDR services to secure your devices against malware and cyber threats.

Sophos XGS Firewalls

Our deployment of Sophos XGS Firewalls provides robust network security, featuring deep learning threat detection, web and application control, and advanced VPN and SD-WAN capabilities. These features work together to protect your network from sophisticated cyber threats.
