    Kind of surprised to not see this on a fully functioned firewall - looking forward to seeing it in the roadmap in the future.

    If this function is not integrated in the system, my company will not switch to the XG. If necessary, we will look for another firewall manufacturer

    17.5.9 MR-9 this is still an issue. It's not a feature request, but an issue, as any modern ngfw should have this out of the box.

    Any updates on the status of this after more than two years?

    I'm using actually Sophos UTM with Verison 9.6xx. The Portscan feature is not a "nice to have", it is a "must have" feature. So i'm wondering, Sophos XG doesn't have this feature. i looked for the pasted comments, and i think , Sophos MUST support Portscan detection an anti-portscan detecting to implement... quickly !!!!

    So, Please add port scanning feature. Its essential part of Network Protection

    Is this feature even being considered? sure there are DoS & spoof protection but an easy way to stop port scans and blacklist the IP that is scanning would be great. Watchguard has had this as the default behavior for a long time.
