24/7 Threat Hunting & SOC Coverage

Sophos MDR operations run continuously across six global Security Operations Centers, with expert analysts hunting proactively for attacker behaviors that bypass automated tools. The team uses AI-driven analysis plus decades of hands-on threat research to identify suspicious activity in real time, investigate potential threats, and confirm whether they are genuinely malicious or benign. Your team gets direct call-in access to the SOC to review active incidents with analysts at any hour.

Human-Led Response Actions

When Sophos MDR confirms a threat, the operations team executes response actions directly on your environment, not just notifying you of the problem. Response Actions include host isolation, process termination, IP blocking, malicious artifact deletion, remote querying across endpoints, and escalation through your preferred communication channels. The team can trigger Active Threat Response through Sophos Firewall to block attacker infrastructure network-wide without manual rules.

Flexible Threat Response Modes

Sophos MDR offers three threat response modes matched to how your team wants to handle incidents, giving you full control over how proactively the operations team acts on detected threats. In Authorize mode, Sophos takes action immediately to contain threats without waiting for approval. Collaborate mode engages your contacts before action unless contacts cannot be reached. Notify Only mode limits Sophos to investigation and notification, letting your own team handle response directly.

Third-Party Integration & ACE Platform

Sophos Adaptive Cybersecurity Ecosystem (ACE) consolidates telemetry from 350+ integrated security tools including Microsoft Defender, CrowdStrike, Palo Alto Networks, Fortinet, Check Point, Rapid7, AWS, Google, Okta, and Darktrace, correlating signals into one AI-native analytics platform. Sophos X-Ops threat intelligence augments detection with real-world attacker tradecraft observed across 600,000 customers. Keep your existing security stack and gain expert-led response.

Incident Response & Posture Improvement

Every confirmed incident gets a Dedicated Incident Response Lead who collaborates with your internal team and any external partners until the incident is fully resolved and root cause identified. Sophos performs root cause analysis to understand exactly how the incident happened and provides prescriptive guidance to address underlying security weaknesses going forward. Continuous review of endpoint configurations managed by Sophos XDR ensures settings stay optimized and tuned.
