Intercept X Advanced
Sophos Intercept X is the industry-leading endpoint security solution that reduces the attack surface and prevents attacks from occurring. Combining anti-exploit, anti-ransomware, deep learning AI, and control technology, it blocks attacks before they affect your systems. Intercept X uses a defense-in-depth approach to protect endpoints, rather than relying on a single security foundation.
- Stops never-before-seen threats using Deep Learning AI
- Blocks ransomware and reverts affected files to their safe state
- Blocks vulnerability exploitation techniques used throughout the attack chain
- Reduces attack surface with application, device, and web control
- Perform threat hunting and security hygiene of IT operations with XDR
- Provides 24/7 year-round security as a fully managed service
- Easy to deploy, configure, and maintain, even in remote work environments
Intercept X Advanced
Other benefits:
Blocks unknown threats
Intercept X’s deep learning AI technology excels at detecting and blocking malware, even never-before-seen malware, by analyzing file attributes extracted from millions of samples to identify threats, without the need for signatures.
Reduces the attack surface
Control which applications and devices can operate in your environment, and block malicious websites and potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) before they reach users or devices.
Direct management
Intercept X is managed by Sophos Central, the cloud-based management platform for all Sophos solutions. A single pane of glass for all your products and devices makes it easy to deploy, configure, and manage your environment, even from remote work locations.
Blocks ransomware
Detects malicious encryption processes and blocks them before they can spread across the network, including those that act at system startup. All encrypted files are reverted to a safe state, allowing your company to continue operating without interruption and with minimal impact to your business. You get detailed information about the threat, including the root cause.
Prevents vulnerability exploits
Anti-exploit technology blocks exploitation techniques used by attackers to compromise devices, steal credentials, and distribute malware. By stopping techniques used throughout the attack chain, Intercept X keeps your organization safe from attacks.
Synchronized security
Sophos solutions work best together. For example, Intercept X and Sophos Firewall share data to automatically isolate compromised devices while cleaning, then allow network access once the threat is neutralized. All without requiring administrator intervention.
Expert, AI-powered data
By combining deep learning AI with the cybersecurity expertise of Forte experts, Intercept X offers organizations the best of both worlds, reflected in industry-leading threat intelligence.
-
More intelligence:
Deep learning solutions process data through multiple layers of analysis, detecting malware that would go unnoticed by other traditional learning machines. -
Scalability:
Deep learning technology can scale the analysis to hundreds of millions of additional samples. This is significant considering that 2.8 million new malware samples are analyzed every week. -
More technology:
Cybersecurity machine learning experts at the National Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) created their Cyber Genome Program to uncover the “DNA” of malware and other cyber threats. This was the origin of what is now the algorithm built into Intercept X. -
More performance:
Incredibly fast, in less than 20 milliseconds, the technology is able to extract millions of features, conduct in-depth analysis and determine whether a file is benign or malicious. It all happens before the file is executed.
Intercept X Advanced with XDR
Extended detection and response
Intercept X Advanced with XDR is a next-level endpoint protection solution that delivers greater accuracy and agility in finding threats to IT operations. It is an integrated security solution that detects potentially malicious activity through real-time device monitoring and endpoint data collection.
Additionally, it is a feature that uses this collected data to respond to these malicious actors, stopping breaches before they start.
