Sophos Central stands as the AI-native security platform utilized by over 600,000 organizations globally to shield their entity against ransomware and breaches. It empowers clients to link and oversee all their cyber defenses in a unified interface, diminishing daily operational costs and hastening protection.
The core focus of Sophos Central has always been to streamline security management and boost operational effectiveness. Today, I’m thrilled to unveil a significant advancement in that endeavor with the introduction of personalized dashboards.
This fresh attribute streamlines the curation of a consolidated perspective of your surroundings by using an array of data points, encompassing threats, endpoint indications, alerts, and firewall telemetry. You can now swap your Sophos Central homepage with your preferred dashboard.
Easily Formulate Desired Views
With an enhanced, user-friendly experience and adaptable layout, crafting customized dashboards is swift and effortless, ensuring that the most pertinent content is always within reach. Data representations (widgets) provide interactive filtering with actionable data, allowing you to delve deeper for further insights and context whenever necessary.
With widgets readily available for the majority of Sophos products, it only takes moments to create holistic views that eliminate security compartments. Whether you prefer a single, diversified data-based dashboard, focused views of precise data, or a mixture of both, the tailored dashboards cater to all your needs.
