Sophos Firewall release notes removed from our blog

Sophos Firewall release notes removed from our blog

At least twice a year we pause briefly to take a step back and question our daily routines. Where can we improve, where can we optimise, and which tasks no longer justify the effort because they no longer add real value?

Time for change

We are very fortunate – and grateful – that the pandemic has not harmed our business so far. On the contrary, it has motivated us to make some changes to our website and to tidy things up. We recently removed the newsletter categories and introduced stock information on our product pages. You can also expect a few visual changes on the site later this year.

Release notes categories removed

The next optimisation concerns the release notes on our website. Until now, our blog had two dedicated categories:

  • SFOS release notes
  • UTM release notes

When we first started blogging about Sophos topics a few years ago, we felt it added value for customers if we informed them about new firewall OS updates. Today, however, Sophos itself communicates very promptly and in great detail about new releases in the firewall backend and in the community. For us, publishing release notes on the blog had therefore become little more than a copy‑and‑paste exercise. Our goal is always to provide original content that adds value – which was no longer the case for release notes. For this reason, we have removed these two categories from our blog.

You will still find news about the XG Firewall, SFOS and UTM in the Sophos Firewall category.

If you want to stay informed about new release notes in future, we recommend the relevant sections of the Sophos Community:
