Five Significant Savings with Synchronised Security for All Teams

With Sophos continuing to phase out legacy on-premise platforms in favour of next-generation cloud-managed solutions, now is the perfect time to revisit the benefits of Synchronised Security – and how it can deliver measurable savings across your organisation.

Synchronised Security is Sophos’ integrated cyber security ecosystem. It connects endpoint, firewall, mobile, email, Wi-Fi, and encryption products through Sophos Central, a cloud-native platform that enables real-time data sharing and automated incident response. [sophos.com]

This system:

• Automatically isolates compromised endpoints
• Shares telemetry across products to detect lateral movement
• Restricts access for non-compliant devices
• Provides unified visibility and control from a single dashboard

1. Reduced IT Security Headcount

Sophos Central’s automation and AI-native threat response mean that 95% of incidents are resolved without human intervention. This allows teams to focus on strategic remediation, reducing the need for large security teams.

2. Time Saved on Admin Tasks

Sophos Central consolidates data across all security products, reducing the time spent on manual updates and investigations. Sophos reports a 50% reduction in time and effort spent by IT teams on day-to-day security operations.

3. Faster Incident Identification

Thanks to synchronised telemetry and automated scanning, the time to identify threats has dropped by 90%, enabling faster containment and reduced exposure.

4. Fewer Security Incidents

Sophos customers report an 85% reduction in the number of incidents requiring investigation, thanks to proactive threat detection and cross-product intelligence.

5. Minimised Downtime

Devices under investigation remain online and protected, thanks to endpoint isolation and continuous updates – even during containment. This avoids the productivity loss associated with manual quarantining.

• Sophos MDR Bundles for MSPs now include extended data retention, network detection, and Microsoft 365 response actions.
• Firewall + Endpoint Integration Offers provide free trials and discounts for new customers.
• Command-line controls allow fine-tuning of synchronised security behaviour for advanced users.

Whether you’re migrating from legacy Sophos products or looking to reduce IT costs without sacrificing protection, Synchronised Security offers a future-proof solution. Flexible licensing options – including monthly billing – help preserve cash flow while scaling your defences.
