Sophos SW\/Virtual Appliance Base License<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Sophos SW\/Virtual Appliance Base License is an essential component for the protection of virtual environments. While buyers of a hardware appliance will find the benefits of the Base License already included in the hardware price, virtual appliances require the separate purchase of this license. This one-off purchase gives you access to a wide range of functions that will take your network security to a new level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sophos Base License is designed as a \"Lifetime License\", which means that it is valid indefinitely, with an expiration date set by Sophos in the year 2999. Please note, however, that the hardware itself has a limited service life and is not supported indefinitely by the software.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n
