Hi @Gulzar C , Some of the preferred solutions seen in educational institutes are mentioned below:
Sophos.
Fortinet Fortigate.
Juniper SRX Firewall.
SonicWall.
Untangle was born in the educational sector, and now it has been acquired by Arista in case you would like to check it out. Any solution is recommended, it all depends on the budget, you can also check pfSense which is free. fatpipeinc.com is a native solution for balancing WAN, VERSA for 8 wan, FortiGate, Sophos, VMware and Cisco are the leaders on Gartner.

Hello community,
I am researching firewalls for my company. I am currently interested in Fortinet's firewall. Which Fortinet firewall model is the equivalent of Sophos XG 100?
Thank you for your help.
Properly there is no XG100 as I understand, but within that family ranging from 105 to 135, Fortigate can be an FG60, FG70, and FG80 all of them F series.

Analyze the wave of product at Gartner Hype Cycle. EDR was good in the past. After that, MDR joined the hype and now, XDR is the trend. Wait for more in a couple of months and (sic) know the ZDR!
