Continuous, automated detection – running around the clock for your security team to act on
The challenge & the solution
Attacks hide. XDR finds them.
Modern attacks don’t sit in one tool — they pivot from email to endpoint to cloud to identity. Siloed alerts miss the bigger picture. XDR connects the dots.
The challenge
5+
disconnected security tools per SMB
Alerts everywhere. Insight nowhere.
Endpoint, email, firewall, cloud, identity – each tool fires its own alerts, and a small IT team can’t possibly triage them all. Real attacks slip through the cracks while teams chase false positives.
The solution
One platform that sees the whole attack.
Sophos XDR pulls telemetry from every protected surface into a single Threat Analysis Centre, then uses deep-learning AI to correlate, prioritise and surface the threats that actually matter – so your security team can investigate and respond decisively.
What you get · Why Sophos XDR
Everything your SOC needs, in one platform.
Deep-learning AI
Neural networks trained on hundreds of millions of malware samples – catching threats that signature-based engines have never seen.
CryptoGuard anti-ransomware
Detects unauthorised file encryption in real time, blocks the process and rolls files back to their pre-attack state – automatically.
Extended Detection & Response
A unified view across endpoint, server, firewall, email and cloud – investigate any incident end-to-end without switching tools.
Synchronised security
Sophos products talk to each other automatically – a firewall block can quarantine the matching endpoint in the same heartbeat.
Exploit prevention
Blocks the techniques attackers use – memory injection, credential theft, lateral movement – before they can chain into a full compromise.
Automated incident response
Playbook-driven containment isolates infected hosts, kills processes and revokes sessions in seconds — long before a human can react.
Did you know
The numbers behind why XDR matters.
Time to detect
277 days
Attackers hide for months.
The global average dwell time before a breach is detected. XDR collapses that window from months to minutes by correlating signals the moment they appear.
Cost of inaction
$4.88M
Average breach cost.
The 2024 global average cost of a data breach (IBM). For SMBs, even a fraction of this can be terminal – XDR shortens detection and contains damage early.
Targeted
94%
Of orgs hit by a cyber-attack.
Every modern business is in scope. XDR assumes compromise is inevitable and focuses on detecting and neutralising it before damage is done.
Any Faster MTTR
10x
Faster mean time to respond.
Organisations using XDR report mean-time-to-respond reductions of up to 10x compared to siloed point tools – fewer tabs, faster decisions.

How it works
From signal to neutralised threat.
Sophos XDR runs a five-stage pipeline — collecting telemetry from every protected surface, correlating it with AI, and triggering response in seconds.
1
Collect
Telemetry pulled from endpoint, firewall, email, cloud and identity in real time.
2
Correlate
Sophos Central stitches related events together into a single incident.
3
Analyse
Deep-learning AI scores and prioritises incidents by likely impact.
4
Investigate
Threat hunters dive in via the Threat Analysis Centre — full timeline, every artefact.
5
Respond
Automated playbooks isolate hosts, kill processes and revoke sessions in seconds.

Real-world use cases
Built for how SA businesses operate.
SMBs with no SOC
SOC capability, no SOC team.
You get the same detection, hunting and response a dedicated SOC delivers — without hiring one. Vox monitors 24/7 and escalates only what matters.
Mid-market security team
Force-multiplier for your analysts.
Existing analysts spend less time triaging alerts and more time on real investigations — XDR does the correlation and prioritisation grunt work.
Multi-tool environments
Consolidate the alert noise.
Already running 5+ point tools? XDR ingests their telemetry, correlates it with Sophos signals, and gives you one prioritised queue instead of five.
Compliance-driven response
Audit-ready, every incident.
30-day forensic retention plus full incident timelines map cleanly to POPIA, PCI-DSS and ISO 27001 reporting requirements.
