Access Networks Integrates Sophos’ XGS Series Firewall Into Core Systems for Increased Cybersecurity

Access Networks says it is strengthening the cybersecurity capabilities of its custom Core Systems with the integration of Sophos’ next-generation firewall/router. The XGS Series from Sophos delivers protection to home networks against increasingly sophisticated cyber threats. The Sophos XGS Series firewall is available now as a component of Access Networks’ custom Core System.

“Thanks to the utilization of dual processors, the XGS Series firewall/router provides not only greater protection against malware, ransomware, viruses and other threats, but also enables faster data throughput for networks of all sizes and scopes,” said Nathan Holmes, senior manager, training at Snap One. “The dual processor gives even small networking systems the high throughput historically only possible with high-end systems. Home networks can achieve an unprecedented level of performance, helping integrators deploy and end-users enjoy the best networking experiences possible. And it’s not just computers that benefit. Anything that’s on the network — security cameras, electronic door locks, smart TVs and other IoT devices — is safeguarded from infection.”
