Key capabilities
24/7 threat monitoring and response
We detect and respond to threats before they can compromise your data or cause downtime. Backed by seven global security operations centers (SOCs), Sophos MDR provides around-the-clock coverage.
Full-scale incident response
When we identify an active threat, Sophos MDR can execute an extensive set of response actions on your behalf to remotely disrupt, contain and fully-eliminate the adversary. Benefit from unlimited full-scale incident response with no caps and no extra fees with a Sophos MDR Complete subscription.
Expert-led threat hunting
Proactive threat hunts performed by highly trained analysts uncover and rapidly eliminate more threats than security products can detect on their own. The Sophos MDR operations team can also use third-party vendor telemetry to conduct threat hunts and identify attacker behaviors that evaded detection from deployed toolsets.
Threat containment
For organizations that choose not to have Sophos MDR perform full-scale incident response, the Sophos MDR operations team can execute threat containment actions, interrupting the threat and preventing spread. This reduces workload for internal security operations teams and enables them to rapidly execute remediation actions.
Breach protection warranty
Included with Sophos MDR Complete subscriptions, the Sophos Breach Protection Warranty covers up to $1 million in response expenses. There are no warranty tiers, minimum contract terms, or additional purchase requirements.
Root cause analysis
Along with proactive recommendations to improve your security posture, we perform root cause analysis to identify the underlying issues that led to an incident, and provide guidance to address security weaknesses so they cannot be exploited in the future.
Compatible with non-Sophos tools
Sophos MDR can integrate telemetry from third-party endpoint, firewall, network, identity, email, backup and recovery, and other technologies. Sophos offers seamless integration with a broad, open ecosystem of technology partners to deliver superior cybersecurity outcomes.
Reports and service insights
Sophos Central is your single dashboard for real-time alerts, reporting, and management. Detailed reports and executive dashboards provide insights into security investigations, cyberthreats, and your security posture. Learn more about MDR service insights.

Endpoint protection included
Sophos MDR analysts can use telemetry from your existing endpoint protection solution to detect and respond to threats targeting your computers and servers. Alternatively, switch to Sophos Endpoint for superior protection — included at no additional cost.
