Sophos Cloud Security

AI-native cloud security, from runtime to response.

Sophos Cloud Security protects your cloud workloads and detects attacks across them, delivered through Sophos XDR and MDR. It unifies telemetry from hosts, containers, and cloud services into the same investigation workflow as your endpoints, network, and identities. One console, one workflow, across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and Oracle OCI. It replaces the retired Sophos Cloud Optix with a broader, detection-led approach.

What Sophos Cloud Security does.

Protection and detection across every cloud workload, container, and platform.

Unified detection and response

Cloud signals join the same XDR workflow as your endpoint, network, and identity data, so you follow an attack from first entry to full resolution.

Every major cloud

Full coverage across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and Oracle OCI, ingesting native telemetry from each platform's own logs and APIs.

Workloads and containers

Protect hosts, VMs, and containers at runtime, including Kubernetes nodes and non-root namespaces where many tools have blind spots.

Identity-focused

Bring cloud identity signals into the workflow to catch credential abuse, impossible-travel sign-ins, and IAM misconfigurations before they become breaches.

Windows and Linux

Full protection across Windows Server and the Linux distributions common in the cloud, on x86_64 and ARM64, with a lean, low-overhead agent.

Cloud-tuned detections

Detects snapshot exfiltration, control-plane recon, container escapes, privilege escalation, and lateral movement, mapped to MITRE ATT&CK.

How you run it.

Self-managed with Sophos XDR, or fully managed with Sophos MDR.

Self-managed with Sophos XDR

Your team gets one console to detect, investigate, and respond across cloud, endpoint, network, and identity.

Fully managed with Sophos MDR

Hand off 24/7 monitoring and response to the Sophos Agentic SOC, which supervises AI-driven triage and owns the outcome.

Part of Sophos Focus

Cloud protection runs in the same console as the rest of your Sophos security, feeding one coordinated defence.

Which clouds does it cover?

AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and Oracle OCI, ingesting native telemetry from each platform, plus Kubernetes and container environments.

What does it protect?

Hosts, virtual machines, and containers at runtime, across Windows Server and common Linux distributions on x86_64 and ARM64, using a lean, low-overhead agent designed for cloud.

Do I need Sophos MDR?

No. You can self-manage with Sophos XDR, or hand off 24/7 monitoring and response to Sophos MDR. We will confirm the right fit when we quote.

What happened to Sophos Cloud Optix?

Sophos Cloud Optix is being retired. Cloud security is now delivered through Sophos XDR and MDR as Cloud Security, a broader, detection-led approach across workloads and cloud platforms.
