I have just discovered that Sophos XG210 firewall uses Snort IPS engine today!
Subject: I have just discovered that Sophos XG210 firewall uses Snort IPS engine today!
Good day from Singapore,
While configuring email alert notifications on Sophos XG210 firewall for my client today, 5 May 2022, I discovered that the firewall uses Snort as its IPS engine.
I saw it in the release notes for firmware version SFOS 18.5.3 MR3-Build408.
I am wondering if the Sophos XG Firewall Free Home Use Edition uses Snort IPS engine as well.
If Sophos XG Firewall Free Home Use Edition also uses Snort IPS engine, I am going to try it out very soon! Because I am a Snort Intrusion Prevention System fan!
I also notice Sophos XG210 firewall uses another open source software, exim mail transport agent (mta).
Looking forward to your advice.
Thank you.
