Cybercrime has increased rapidly in recent years,  there is no question about that. Whether it is Advanced Persistent Threats, i.e. attacks aimed at specific institutions and organisations, or DoS/DDoS attacks, phishing or simply spam, the figures continue to rise and the attacks are becoming ever more extensive.

The keyword for the solution is "Synchronized". It is a system developed by Sophos in which individual security components are intelligently networked with one another and work together in a coordinated way. Here, products in the areas of endpoint, network, mobile, wireless, email and encryption solutions exchange information with each other in real time and can therefore respond appropriately to specific incidents.

These include, for example, the following actions:

• The isolation of infected endpoints in order to prevent lateral movement within the network
  

• The restriction of Wi-Fi access for devices that do not comply with your company's compliance policies

• The scanning of endpoints when compromised email accounts are detected on them

• The deactivation of certain encryption keys when there is a risk

• The identification of all applications running on the network
