Sophos Exploit Prevention

Sophos Endpoint prevents the exploits hackers rely on

 

While there have been countless types of cyberattacks and more are created every minute, hackers rely on key security software vulnerabilities to spread malware, ransomware, and more.

The abuse of a software vulnerability by an attacker is called an exploit. While there are millions of pieces of malware in existence, and thousands of software vulnerabilities waiting to be exploited, there are only handful of exploit techniques attackers rely on as part of the attack chain – and by taking away the key tools hackers love to use, Sophos Endpoint stops exploits and zero-day attacks before they can get started.

Sophos Endpoint includes:

Ransomware Protection

CryptoGuard uses behavioral analysis to stop previously unseen ransomware and boot record attacks. Never pay a ransom again.

Active Adversary Mitigations

Sophos Endpoint utilizes a range of techniques, including credential theft prevention, code cave utilization detection, and APC protection used to gain a presence and remain undetected on victim networks.

Deep Learning

Sophos Endpoint uses a deep learning neural network, an advanced form of machine learning, to detect known and unknown malware without signatures.

Exploit Techniques

Vulnerabilities vs. Exploits vs. Exploit Techniques

Vulnerability

Exploit

A specific successful and reliable use of one or more exploit techniques against one of thousands of potential target vulnerabilities.

Exploit Technique

The underlying way in which an attacker can abuse a vulnerability to make a computer do something it shouldn’t
