Sophos AI Defence

Bring your AI out of the shadows.

AI is already part of how your organisation works, often before anyone set the rules. Sophos AI Defence lets you see, control, and secure how AI is used across your environment. It finds the AI tools and agents in play, including shadow AI, works out what is actually risky, enforces your policy, and feeds AI activity into the detection and response you already run. It is an add-on to your Sophos protection, managed from Sophos Focus.

What Sophos AI Defence does.

See, control, and secure AI use, built on the protection you already have.

 

Discover

Reveal every AI agent, tool, and activity across your environment, including shadow AI and autonomous agents, so nothing runs beyond your view.

 

Assess

Understand which AI activity actually introduces risk by weighing identity, permissions, geography, and data access together, not in isolation.

 

Enforce

Apply scalable guardrails that keep AI use aligned with your policy and regulations, including controls on prompts and agent behaviour, without slowing people down.

 

Respond

Feed AI activity into your detection and response workflows as a first-class security signal, using the same playbooks and escalation paths you already trust.

Practical AI security, today.

No new platform, no separate tool, no dedicated AI security team.

 

Built for how AI is really used

It focuses on the risk you face now: unmanaged usage, blind spots, and sensitive data leaving through everyday AI tools.

 

Extends what you already have

It applies your existing endpoint, network, identity, and browser protection to the risk of unmanaged AI, rather than adding a standalone product.

 

Add-on to your Sophos plan

Available as an add-on for Sophos EDR, XDR, and MDR customers, managed from Sophos Focus alongside the rest of your security.

AI Defence questions.

What is Sophos AI Defence?

Sophos AI Defence secures how AI is used across your organisation. It discovers AI tools and agents in use, including shadow AI, assesses which activity is risky, enforces policy with guardrails, and feeds AI activity into your detection and response. It is part of Sophos Focus.

Does it protect against shadow AI?

Yes. It reveals AI agents, tools, and activity across your environment, including shadow AI and autonomous agents, so unmanaged AI does not run beyond your view.

Do I need a separate platform or team?

No. It extends the protection you already have across endpoint, network, identity, and browser, so you do not need a new platform, extra tooling, or a dedicated AI security team.
