The artificial intelligence built into Intercept X is a deep learning neural network, an
advanced form of machine learning that detects both known and unknown malware
without relying on signatures.
Sophos Intercept X Advanced
Sophos Intercept X employs a comprehensive defense-in-depth approach to endpoint protection, rather than simply relying on one primary security technique. This is the “the power of the plus” – a combination of leading foundational and modern techniques.
Modern techniques include deep learning malware detection, exploit prevention, and anti-ransomware specific features. Foundational techniques include signature-based malware detection, behavior analysis, malicious traffic detection, device control, application control, web filtering, data loss prevention, and more.
Features
The #1 rated malware detection engine, driven by deep learning
Exploit prevention stops the techniques attackers use to control vulnerable software
Active adversary mitigation prevents persistence on machine
Root cause analysis lets you see what the malware did and where it came from
Ransomware specific prevention technology
Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) that delivers powerful IT security operations hygiene and threat hunting for both IT admins and security analysts
