Sophos Endpoint takes a comprehensive, prevention-first approach to security, blocking threats without relying on any single technique. Web, application, and peripheral controls reduce your attack surface and block common attack vectors. AI, behavioral analysis, anti-ransomware, anti-exploitation, and other advanced technologies stop threats fast before they escalate, so resource-stretched IT teams have fewer incidents to investigate and resolve,Adaptive attack protection dynamically enables heightened defenses on an endpoint when a hands-on-keyboard attack is detected. This prevents a cybercriminal from taking further actions by minimizing the attack surface and disrupting and containing the attack, buying valuable time to respond,Critical attack warningA critical attack warning alerts you if adversarial activity is detected across multiple endpoints or servers. It notifies all administrators in the Sophos Central unified security management platform of the situation and provides attack details. You can respond using Sophos XDR, seek assistance from your partner, or ask the Sophos Incident Response team for help.Account health checkPoorly configured policy settings, exclusions, and other factors can compromise your security posture. The account health check feature identifies security posture drift and high-risk misconfigurations, enabling administrators to remediate issues with one click.Device encryptionWith many devices lost or stolen daily, full disk encryption is a crucial first line of defense. Sophos device encryption is integrated with Sophos Endpoint for managing BitLocker (Windows) and FileVault (macOS). Recovery keys are securely escrowed, providing peace of mind. Administrators can view their devices' encryption status and demonstrate compliance. End users can access self-service options to recover their devices, removing a burden from IT.View encryption technical briefSophos 2024 State of Ransomware reportHow likely are you to be hit by ransomware?
