Sophos Synchronized Security Accerditation Training
Cybersecurity Delivered
Synchronized Security is the world’s first – and best – cybersecurity system. Endpoint, network, mobile, Wi-Fi, email, and encryption products, all sharing information in real time and responding automatically to incidents:
- Isolate infected endpoints, blocking lateral movement
- Restrict Wi-Fi for non-compliant mobile devices
- Scan endpoints on detection of compromised mailboxes
- Revoke encryption keys if a threat is detected
- Identify all apps on the network
And with everything controlled through the Sophos Central cloud-based security platform, management is a breeze.
Reduce cyber risk
Automated incident response minimizes exposure to security threats, while cross-product data sharing reveals previously hidden risks.
Enhance cross-estate visibility
Get previously unseen insights into network traffic and users, while viewing and controlling all your security in one place
Increase Return on Investment
Scale your security without scaling your resources by consolidating all your protection in a single cloud-based platform.
