In case you didn\u2019t know, Sophos Firewall v20 integrates a ZTNA gateway directly into the firewall, making ZTNA deployments so easy, it\u2019s an easy decision to switch from remote access VPN to ZTNA. ZTNA provides better security, easier management, and a much smoother and more reliable end-user experience. And with a ZTNA gateway integrated into Sophos Firewall, customers don\u2019t need to deploy anything extra on site to enable secure remote access to systems and applications hosted behind the firewall.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about ZTNA and how it can help you and customers with their remote workforce, check out the training and sales tools available on the <a href=\"https:\/\/partners.sophos.com\/prm\/English\/c\/selling-sophos-zero-trust-network\">Partner Portal<\/a> (login required).
