A little about Sophos Intercept X Advanced
Prior to the introduction of the Sophos Intercept X series of solutions, Sophos offered Central Endpoint as its primary endpoint protection. As an older product, it doesn’t include deep learning AI, CryptoGuard, and many other protection features that make Intercept X a complete and effective security solution.
Then came the whole Intercept X family. There are several iterations of Intercept X. But the main differences between the Intercept X series and Sophos Central Endpoint is the addition of Deep Learning Malware Detection, Exploit Prevention, Malicious Traffic Detection, Active Adversary Mitigations, and a few other things.
Intercept X Advanced has a very robust suite of preventative security features in all of it’s iterations. For example, you gat Application Control, Deep-Learning Malware Detection, DLP, IPS, Safe Browsing, Exploit Prevention, and so on. It is a very defensive, reactive feature set. It’s just more powerful and advanced. We have explanations of the different flavors of Sophos Intercept X here.

Intercept X Advanced for Server adds features like:
• Detailed Multi-Cloud Inventory – Enables you to visualize your entire cloud environment. Even in multi-cloud setups you get insight into configuration issues, resource waste and potential security issues.
• AI-Powered Anomaly Detection – AI constantly monitors your cloud environment. It will notify you of any irregularities and prevent configuration changes that would leave you vulnerable.
