March 6, 2017 - 2 minutes read

nsa The protection capabilities of Intercept X are now available to Endpoint Protection deployments managing their endpoint policy in Sophos Enterprise Console. Stop malware, prevent exploit vulnerabilities and get a deep clean on any potentially hidden malware using the Endpoint Exploit Prevention add-on.

Highlights

  • Stops crypto-ransomware and automatically rolls any impacted files back
  • Exploit Prevention mitigates the methods attackers use to exploit software vulnerabilities
  • Forensic-level system cleanup

Stop ransomware before it takes hold

The proven CryptoGuard capabilities in Sophos Intercept X are now being used in Endpoint Exploit Prevention. The technology blocks ransomware as soon as it attempts to encrypt your files, returning your data to its original state.

  • Brings the protection technology of Intercept X to Enterprise console-managed endpoints
  • Protects endpoints from ransomware attacks
  • Automatically rolls back encrypted file changes
  • Stops both local disk and remote file-share encryption

Exploit technique mitigations

Our anti-exploit technology stops threats before they become an issue by recognizing and blocking common malware delivery techniques. This process protects your endpoints from exploit kits and malicious payloads looking to exploit both known and unknown software vulnerabilities. 

Advanced threat removal

Removing malware is no longer just a case of quarantine and delete. If malware is detected on an endpoint, how do you know what the malware did to your machine before it was stopped? Sophos Clean technology is used within Endpoint Exploit Prevention to detect the remains of malware and perform a deep system clean. The technology records forensic-level audit logging, tracking every change and cleaning the hidden malware.

Managed by Sophos Enterprise Console

Endpoint Exploit Prevention requires no new agent deployment for existing Sophos Endpoint Protection customers who are using Enterprise Console. The addition of the license unlocks new policy capabilities and automatically deploys agent components. Looking for Root Cause Analysis attack visualizations, in addition to protection? Switch to Intercept X and manage your endpoints from Sophos Central, our cloud-based platform.
