Harness the Power of a Deep Learning Neural Network
Achieve unmatched endpoint threat prevention. Intercept X uses deep learning, an advanced form of machine learning to detect both known and unknown malware without relying on signatures.
Deep learning makes Intercept X smarter, more scalable, and more effective against never-seen-before threats. Intercept X leverages deep learning to outperform endpoint security solutions that use traditional machine learning or signature-based detection alone.
Stop Ransomware in Its Tracks
Block ransomware attacks before they wreak havoc on your organization. Intercept X with XDR includes anti-ransomware technology that detects malicious encryption processes and shuts them down before they can spread across your network. It prevents both file-based and master boot record ransomware.
Any files that were encrypted are rolled back to a safe state, meaning your employees can continue working uninterrupted, with minimal impact to business continuity. You get detailed post-cleanup information, so you can see where the threat got in, what it touched, and when it was blocked.
Intelligent Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR)
The first EDR designed for security analysts and IT administrators
Intercept X Advanced with EDR allows you to ask any question about what has happened in the past, and what is happening now on your endpoints. Hunt threats to detect active adversaries, or leverage for IT operations to maintain IT security hygiene. When an issue is found remotely respond with precision. By starting with the strongest protection, Intercept X stops breaches before they start. It cuts down the number of items to investigate and saves you time.
Extended Detection and Response (XDR)
Intercept X Advanced with XDR is the industry’s only XDR solution that synchronizes native endpoint, server, firewall, email, cloud and O365 security. Get a holistic view of your organization’s environment with the richest data set and deep analysis for threat detection, investigation and response for both dedicated SOC teams and IT admins.

Author info | Rating | Review Summary |
---|---|---|
Team Lead at KO | 4.0 | Intercept X Endpoint effectively enforces compliance by blocking sensitive data but struggles with QUIC protocol web filtering. While threats are well-managed, RAM usage is high during server scans. The management console is user-friendly, yet improvements in AI and profiling are needed. |
Manager at Omgea Exim Ltd | 4.5 | I find Intercept X Endpoint easy to deploy and use, with strong AI/ML capabilities providing excellent protection at a lower price. However, it can slow down machines and has integration challenges. I switched from Kaspersky for stronger security. |
Network Security Engineer at MIS Security Solutions (Pvt) Ltd | 4.0 | I work with Sophos Intercept X Endpoint, valued for its unique content filtering and application controls. However, it faces a licensing challenge as user-based licenses don't suit customers needing per-device options for shared PCs. |
Network and infrastructure manager at Sonysugar | 4.0 | No summary available |
Head of IT Department (Sr. Manager) at a retailer with 10,001+ employees | 4.0 | I use Intercept X Endpoint for comprehensive security, including ransomware and virus protection. Its threat prevention features are impressive, though it consumes significant resources on older machines. The integration with Sophos' firewall enhances its effectiveness. |
Manager (Network Design) at Comstar - Information Systems Associates Ltd. | 4.5 | We've been selling Intercept X Endpoint for eight years, finding it ideal for clients with Sophos Firewall. Its synchronized security, managed detection, and deep learning are valuable, though adding patch assessment could enhance effectiveness, especially in finance sectors. |
IT Support Engineer at Tibbetts Group | 5.0 | We use Intercept X Endpoint across our engineering enterprise for various devices, appreciating its centralized features and single-portal functionality. While no improvements are needed, a cost reduction would relieve our budget. We haven't considered other solutions. |
Head of IT at a consultancy with 201-500 employees | 4.0 | We use Intercept X Endpoint for network and endpoint protection due to its integrated approach, which offers robust security via cloud intelligence, resulting in a lightweight, effective solution despite its high cost. Configuration is easy, though the interface could improve. |
