Frequently Asked Questions

Can WatchGuard scan encrypted data packets?
Yes, absolutely.

Your WatchGuard Firebox can be configured to act as a man-in-the-middle and inspect the packet contents of encrypted data packets in HTTPS sessions even though those data packets are encrypted.  Security experts estimate that a large amount of malicious traffic utilizes the same encryption technologies of secured websites making this an important feature to consider when investing in your IT cybersecurity infrastructure.
