Standard firewall rules and antivirus catch the loud stuff. The quiet stuff – a slow-drip intrusion that sits in your network for weeks before it starts exfiltrating data – needs a different layer. That's what the APT Blocker does.
This 1-year licence adds Advanced Persistent Threat detection to your existing WatchGuard Firebox T45-W-PoE. It watches for the behavioural patterns that slip past signature-based tools: unusual lateral movement, dormant payloads, and the kind of low-and-slow activity that a typical UTM rule set won't flag.
You don't need new hardware. You don't need to re-cable anything. The T45-W is already in your rack; this licence switches on an extra detection layer for 12 months.
Clear on the fine print: software licence only, no box included. It activates against your current T45-W-PoE (HW SKU WGT48000-AU). If that unit isn't running yet, this product alone won't protect your network
