Experts agree. Intercept X Advanced consistently rates at the top of independent tests and analyst reports for endpoint protection.

By combining cutting-edge technologies, such as deep learning and endpoint detection and response, Intercept X delivers unmatched protection against unknown malware, exploits, and ransomware.

End-to-End Endpoint Protection
To stop the widest range of threats, 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 (traditional) and modern (next-gen) techniques. Intercept X integrates the industry’s top-rated malware detection and exploit protection with built-in endpoint detection and response (EDR).

Harness the power of a deep learning neural network
Drive threat prevention to unmatched levels. 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.

Deep learning makes Intercept X smarter, more scalable, and higher-performing than endpoint security solutions that use traditional machine learning or signature-based detection alone.

Stop Ransomware
CryptoGuard in Intercept X is the world's best ransomware protection. It uses behavioral analysis to stop never-before-seen ransomware and boot-record attacks, making it the most advanced anti-ransomware technology available.

Exploit Prevention
Intercept X denies attackers by blocking the exploits and techniques used to distribute malware, steal credentials, and escape detection. This allows Sophos to ward off evasive hackers and zero-day attacks in your network.

Intelligent Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR)
Built-in expertise to help you answer the tough questions about security incidents.

Malware Cleanup
Intercept X includes the industry’s most powerful malware cleaner. While most virus cleaners simply remove offending malware files, Sophos Clean provides forensic-level remediation by eradicating malicious code as well as eliminating nasty registry key changes created by malware as well.

Synchronized Security
Synchronized Security simplifies and unifies defenses with real-time intelligence sharing between your endpoints and firewall. This means you get better protection against advanced threats and spend less time responding to incidents.
- Automatically isolate infected computers
- Instantly clean up malware
- 100% visibility of all apps on your network

Sophos Central
Intercept X is integrated into Sophos Central, the intuitive cloud-based console for managing all your Sophos Products. There’s no servers to build – just log in, download the agent, and configure all your policies from one place.
