Hi Eddie, 
 I would suggest you need to tighten your firewall rule, 
 1/. Tick use proxy box, 
 2/. only allow http and https in the services. 
 3/. tick scan http and decrypted https 
 4/. enable ips lan to wan. 
 5/. that will be your only allow rule. 
 6/. you will need to create some exceptions for some sites. 
 
 now, you can install the XG ca on all PCs, though not all sites are happy with decrypt.

There are basically two ways, 
 1/. use the software iso 
 2/. use the predefined vm software which has the vm files as part of its installation. 
 I would still suggest you talk to a partner about licence cost against a hardware box and what features you will loose with the software version. The software version does not have fast path etc.
