Question & Answer
Question
Is it possible to harden the QRadar Network Security (XGS) sensor?
Answer
The XGS sensor is hardened by default from the factory. Any further hardening that is necessary over time is applied via firmware updates and patches. It is not possible for users to further harden the system on their own because operating system level access is restricted on XGS sensors.
