Sophos ranks #1 for endpoint protection by SE Labs

Sophos Intercept X Advanced was the top-ranked solution for both enterprise endpoint protection and small business endpoint protection in the new SE Labs endpoint protection test report (Apr-Jun 2018). Sophos received a 99% protection accuracy rating, 100% legitimate accuracy rating and 100% total accuracy rating. Each of these scores were the highest in the test.

This is the first time the combination of Intercept X and Central Endpoint Advanced (Intercept X Advanced) has been tested publicly and we are delighted with the results.

SE Labs tested endpoint solutions on their abilities to stop targeted and live, in-the-wild attacks in real time, as well as their false positive impacts. According to the SE Labs test: “Sophos Intercept X Advanced blocked all of the public and targeted attacks. It also handled the legitimate applications correctly”.

As a result, SE Labs awarded Sophos Intercept X Advanced its AAA award for both enterprise and small business protection.

Sophos was also recently ranked #1 for malware protection and exploit protection by MRG Effitas. The endpoint protection in Intercept X Advanced is driven by the combination of deep learning, anti-exploit capabilities, anti-ransomware technology, and other modern endpoint protection techniques – all paired with our foundational endpoint security technology.

Like Sophos, SE Labs is an active member of the Anti-Malware Testing Standards Organization (AMTSO). In fact, SE Labs were the first testing organization to achieve AMTSO Standard compliance.
