License WatchGuard APT Blocker WGM69020801

WatchGuard APT Blocker is a cloud-based advanced threat detection and prevention service that analyses suspicious files using full system emulation to reveal malware designed to evade signature-based defenses. Licensed for one year under model WGM69020801, the service provides last-mile protection against zero-day attacks, ransomware, advanced persistent threats and other unknown malware that may reach your network.

Advantages

APT Blocker uses behavioral analysis and a next-generation sandbox that emulates physical hardware (CPU, memory, and system behavior) to identify malicious code that traditional signature engines can miss. The service integrates with the WatchGuard management console for simple policy controls—allow, drop, block, or quarantine—plus customizable notifications and detailed forensic visibility into attempted attacks.

Suitable for

• Organizations requiring protection against zero-day and advanced persistent threats
• Networks needing last-mile malware detection beyond signature-based defenses
• IT teams that require detailed visibility and forensic data on suspicious files
• Environments that need cloud-based sandboxing integrated with firewall management

How to use

Activate the WatchGuard APT Blocker license in your WatchGuard management console and configure policy settings to submit suspicious files for analysis. When a file is flagged, it is sent to the cloud sandbox where full system emulation executes and inspects behavior; based on the analysis, the console applies the configured action (allow, drop, block, or quarantine) and issues any notifications you set. Regularly review the forensic reports and threat logs to understand detected threats and adjust policies as needed.

Usage recommendations

Enable APT Blocker alongside signature-based protections as part of a layered security strategy, keep the WatchGuard appliance and management console up to date, and review sandbox reports frequently to tune policies and response actions.
