YOUR CHALLENGES
Protect and monitor for suspicious activity and evasive threats
Adversaries are increasingly deploying sophisticated tactics to avoid being blocked by preventive cybersecurity solutions. Real-time and continuous monitoring is required to detect human-led attacks and prevent breaches.
Sophisticated attacks using evasive techniques
Attackers attempt to avoid triggering preventive security tools to allow more time for a comprehensive breach, and the ability to monetize their attack.
Prioritizing what to investigate
Security tools can generate a large volume of alerts. Knowing which alerts are essential to investigate can be the difference between detecting a threat and missing it.
Team skills and agility
Organizations may lack the necessary knowledge and skills to respond effectively to advanced threats, increasing risk and potential impact.

Stop breaches before they start
Most EDR solutions force you to waste valuable time investigating incidents their protection should have blocked. Sophos EDR includes Sophos Endpoint, offering complete protection, detection, investigation and response in a single, unified agent.
Validated by consistent top scores in independent security tests, Sophos Endpoint automatically stops more threats before they escalate, so resource-stretched IT teams have fewer incidents to investigate and resolve.
