Sophos Total Protect versus Full Guard

UPDATED

One of the items that we get asked often is what is the difference between the Sophos Total Protect and the Sophos Full Guard, both provide the next generation in Unified Threat Management, but there is a difference.

The Sophos Total Protect is specifically for those organizations that are purchasing Sophos appliance for the first time, or want to migrate from a software installation to the applianced product.  Total protect includes the appliance, the five security subscriptions and 24 x 7 support (premium support), and a very competitive price point.

Full Guard is what you would be renewing if your purchased  Total Protect previously or if you are purchasing the software only version of the Sophos UTM.

In addition to the Total Protect and Full Guard, Sophos has added in new packages:

Total Protect Plus – available for the software only, SG appliances and the XG appliances, so what does the plus refer to – it is the Sandstorm security subscription to detect suspicious payloads containing threats, malware and unwanted applications.

For the XG series only – Sophos offers the EnterpriseProtect, which bundles Network, Web and Enhanced Support

The security subscriptions included in both are Network Protection, Email Protection, Web Protection, Wireless Protection and Web Server Protection.
