Sophos to showcase latest cybersecurity innovations at GITEX Technology Week 2019

Sophos, a global leader in network and endpoint security, will showcase its latest cybersecurity innovations at GITEX Technology Week 2019, which will be held from Oct. 6 to10, 2019, at the Dubai World Trade Centre. Visitors to the stand (Sheikh Rashid Hall Stand: SR-D10-) will be able to hear more about Sophos’ endpoint and network security solutions that are powered by deep learning and synchronized security and help organizations of all sizes battle today’s ever changing threat landscape.

“Organizations do not have the resources to combat cyber threats like malware, exploits, ransomware and automated, active attacks. Moreover, our research shows the lack of visibility, protection and response capability in the IT security of organizations globally. Under such circumstances businesses need intelligent security solutions that are predictive, multi-layered, and can work together as a system,” said Harish Chib, vice president, Middle East and Africa, Sophos. “GITEX offers us a great opportunity to demonstrate why every organization needs security that is innovative, integrated and scalable and how next-gen cybersecurity protection from Sophos proactively protects against sophisticated threats. It is also an ideal platform for us to meet partners and develop new partnerships that will strengthen the Middle East channel.”

Sophos will showcase its next-gen cybersecurity innovations at GITEX 2019, including:
• Sophos Cloud Optix, which leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to highlight and mitigate threat exposure in cloud infrastructures
• Sophos Intercept X with EDR, which features on-demand curated threat intelligence from SophosLabs and deep learning to rapidly detect, prioritize, investigate and respond to incidents
• Sophos Intercept X for Server with EDR, which expands Sophos’ EDR offering to secure cloud, on-premises, or hybrid server environments
• Sophos’ latest release of XG Firewall with lateral movement protection. As part of Sophos Synchronized Security, companies can better manage and defend their network thanks to integration between endpoint and network solutions. Both XG Firewall and Intercept X are now available on Sophos Central’s cloud management platform.

Sophos Synchronized Security technology allows its network and endpoint protection products to share threat intelligence and respond to security incidents. Synchronized Security is made possible through Security Heartbeat and reduces threat discovery, protection and incident response time – which ordinarily could take hours, days or weeks – to seconds.

In addition to the daily presentations and product demonstrations, senior global executives and security experts from the company will be available at the booth to speak to visitors, customers and channel partners and share their global successes with them.
