XG Firewall On Ms Azure Infrastructure

Sophos XG Firewall can be deployed on Microsoft Azure to provide network security functions like load balancing, web filtering, and traffic inspection. It uses Azure services like Traffic Manager, ExpressRoute, and VPN Gateways to inspect inbound connections. The firewall also utilizes Azure Load Balancers to operate multiple firewall instances for inbound and outbound web filtering. Sophos XG Firewall authenticates inbound and outbound traffic using identity-based policies that integrate with on-premise Active Directory.
