Sophos for HIPAA compliance and data safety
See exactly how Sophos solutions help your efforts to stay HIPAA compliant and keep your patient information safe.
HIPAA: A refresher
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) requires covered entities to protect the privacy and security of an individual’s Protected Health Information (PHI) among its other requirements. It applies to any organization that collects, stores or shares PHI, including health plans, healthcare clearinghouses, and healthcare providers who conduct certain financial and administrative transactions electronically, like doctors and hospitals. The fines for HIPAA violations can be enormous – fines can be in the millions of dollars in some cases.
This is not an exhaustive review of all elements of the Regulation, nor is it legal advice. Please consult your own legal experts if required.
Performance test methodology
| General | Maximum throughput measured under ideal test conditions using industry-standard Keysight-Ixia BreakingPoint test tools. Actual performance may vary depending on network conditions and activated services. |
| Firewall | Measured using HTTP traffic and 512 KB response size. |
| Firewall IMIX | UDP throughput based on a combination of 66 byte, 570 byte, and 1518 byte packet sizes. |
| IPS | Measured using HTTP traffic, default IPS ruleset, and 512 KB object size. |
| IPsec VPN | HTTP throughput measured using multiple tunnels and 512 KB HTTP response size. |
| TLS inspection | Measured with IPS enabled on HTTPS sessions and different cipher suites. |
| Threat protection | Measured with firewall, IPS, application control, and malware prevention enabled using Enterprise Mix traffic. |

Deep learning detects business email compromise
Deep learning-powered Natural Language Processing (NLP) in Sophos Email identifies impersonation attempts trying to trick users into believing a scam or phishing email is legitimate.
Sophos Email uses AI to analyze subject lines and content for both tone and wording to identify suspicious conversations. Impersonation attempts are automatically blocked, preventing the attack, and the administrator is notified.
Sophos AI Assistant
- Enable less experienced users to investigate incidents effectively with guided workflows and accessible natural language insights.
- Empower seasoned analysts to optimize their impact and efficiency with easy access to critical information from across your environment.
Accelerate security operations with GenAI
Extensive GenAI capabilities in Sophos Extended Detection and Response (XDR) empower your security analysts to neutralize adversaries faster, increasing both analyst and business confidence.
- AI Assistant provides support and advice for analysts as they work a case, helping neutralize adversaries faster.
- AI Case Summary provides an easy-to-understand overview of detections and recommended next steps, helping analysts make smart decisions fast.
Unrivaled performance
The XGS Series of next-gen firewall appliances delivers Sophos Xstream-accelerated performance at every price point to power the protection you need for today’s diverse, distributed, and encrypted networks.
Powered by Xstream
The Sophos Xstream architecture accelerates and offloads your important SaaS, SD-WAN, VPN, and cloud traffic at the hardware or software level from our deep packet inspection (DPI) engine. On some models, it performs Transport Layer Security (TLS) and DPI using integrated Sophos Xstream Flow processors.
High-speed connectivity
Customize your firewall’s already versatile networking options with an extensive range of add-on modules for high-speed copper, fiber, Power over Ethernet (PoE), 5G, and Wi-Fi connectivity.
Performance by design
From the smallest entry-level device to our enterprise and campus edge models, every Sophos Firewall is custom-built to handle the most demanding workloads. Striking the perfect balance between performance, value, and efficiency, our hardware appliances unlock the high-speed connectivity you need to prevent bottlenecks and reap the full potential of your network.
Active threat response
Stop active threats dead in their tracks
Sophos Firewall with Active Threat Response will not only identify and block threats on your network but also coordinate an automated response. Sophos Active Threat Response uses threat intelligence from SophosLabs, Sophos MDR analysts, or third-party sources to identify any active threat operating on your network and block it instantly.
Your firewall will then use Sophos Synchronized Security™ to coordinate with other Sophos products, such as Sophos Endpoint/Intercept X and Sophos ZTNA, and further isolate the threat to prevent lateral movement. You’ll reduce your response time from hours or minutes to seconds, stopping threats before they can spread.
- Automatically identify and block active threats.
- Prevent the lateral movement of attacks.
- Deliver immediate insights into compromised devices, users, and applications.
