Synchronized Security
Automatic response between products
Synchronized Security is a patented Sophos technology that enables security products to communicate and automatically collaborate in real time. An endpoint detecting an infection sends a Security Heartbeat to the firewall, which automatically isolates the device, blocking lateral movement. The system works both ways – a firewall detecting C2 traffic can inform the endpoint of compromise, triggering remediation.
