License WatchGuard APT Blocker WGM39020803

WatchGuard APT Blocker (License WGM39020803) provides advanced threat detection and prevention for networks by using cloud-based sandboxing and behavioral analysis to expose malware that evades signature-based defenses. This 3-year license ensures continuous protection through full system emulation and centralized management, helping organizations detect, block, and remediate sophisticated attacks such as ransomware, zero-day exploits, and advanced persistent threats.

Advantages

APT Blocker uses behavioral analysis and a next-generation cloud sandbox that emulates physical hardware (CPU, memory) to reveal malicious code designed to bypass traditional defenses. The solution integrates with existing signature-based layers, adding last-mile protection against unknown threats, and offers a simple management console with controls to allow, drop, block, or quarantine files and set custom notifications. It also provides detailed visibility into detected threats, including protocol usage, threat IDs, sender sources, and observed malicious activities.

Suitable for

• Small and medium businesses seeking enhanced network security
• Enterprises requiring protection against ransomware and zero-day attacks
• Organizations needing sandbox-based malware analysis and threat visibility

How to use

Deploy APT Blocker as a managed security service through your WatchGuard gateway or management console. Configure policy rules to forward suspicious files to the cloud sandbox for emulation and analysis. Use the management interface to review sandbox results, apply actions (allow, drop, block, quarantine) based on severity, and configure notification settings for alerted events. Maintain the 3-year license to ensure uninterrupted protection.

Usage recommendations

Use APT Blocker as part of a layered security strategy: keep signature-based protections enabled as the first line of defense and rely on APT Blocker for last-mile detection of unknown and evasive threats. Regularly review sandbox reports and adjust policies and notifications to match your organization’s risk profile.
