Overview
A modification to the Sophos Central login experience on January 20, 2022, resulted in the unintended logging of a subset of Sophos Central passwords in specific circumstances. The issue was discovered internally during a routine review of log information. After investigation, we have determined there is no exposure of these passwords outside of the Sophos logging platform.
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) secures all Sophos Central accounts to prevent the misuse of credentials under all circumstances.
The remediation for Sophos Central updated the logic of the login experience to prevent saving passwords to the log.
