Key Capabilities
- Threat Prevention & Deep Learning Protection: Sophos Endpoint uses multiple deep learning models, behavioral detection, anti-exploit technology, and on-device AI to block malware, ransomware, and advanced threats before they can execute.
- Ransomware Defense (CryptoGuard): Real-time ransomware detection stops malicious encryption instantly and restores impacted files automatically, protecting against both local and remote encryption attempts.
- Exploit Prevention & Anti‑Exploitation: Over 60 exploit mitigations prevent attackers from abusing vulnerabilities even zero‑days across browsers, applications, and the OS layer.
- Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR): Investigate suspicious activities, review threat cases, analyze attack paths, and leverage Sophos threat intelligence to quickly respond to emerging threats.
- Extended Detection & Response (XDR): XDR expands visibility across email, servers, firewalls, identities, and cloud workloads using correlated telemetry. Organizations can hunt threats using queries, MITRE mapping, and automated case creation.
- Adaptive Attack Protection: Automatically shifts to defensive mode during active attacks, restricting adversary actions and buying security teams time to respond.
- Web, Application, and Peripheral Control: Reduce your threat surface with granular controls over web categories, applications, removable media, and device access.
- Automatic Cleanup & Remediation: Sophos Endpoint removes malicious files, registry entries, scheduled tasks, and other remnants without manual effort.
- Unified Cloud Management: Sophos Central provides policy management, alerting, reporting, and integration with MDR (24/7 managed detection and response).
