My understanding of the Web Appliance is that if you have an all windows environment, you can implement the web appliance and integrate it with Sophos Endpoints and manage web behavior through that integration.
However, if you add Macs to the environment, my understanding is that the web appliance does not integrate with Sophos Apple Mac endpoint. Therefore, any Macs in your environment would be much less protected than Windows machines - in relation to the web appliance. However, if you setup all of your traffic to go through the Web Appliance, almost like a proxy situation, this would mitigate that lack-of-integration.
This was based on multiple conversations with Sophos engineers. Today, a marketing specialist told me otherwise - that they DO integrate and always have.
I'm not so sure. Perhaps the new web based product does. I am an on premise end point user.
Does anyone know about this?
