The typical enterprise uses more than 45 separate security products, each giving a different view of a single attack that analysts must connect manually. This fragmentation slows response and takes up valuable time.



Sophos’ new AI-driven Fusion platform puts those views together automatically. It uses a shared context lake into which signals from different control points flow in real time, turning information into coordinated action.



The aim is to make existing controls function more like components of one defense system, improving visibility while reducing mean time to respond.



We’ll examine how this AI-powered approach can investigate and respond autonomously within boundaries established and continually calibrated by analysts, and how context-driven coordination allows security controls to share what they know and use that information to detect, investigate and contain threats more quickly.

You&#8217;ll learn:
<ul>
<li>How to apply agentic AI to investigation and response while retaining human governance</li>
<li>How to connect EDR/XDR, SIEM, ITDR, MDR, network, email and cloud security</li>
<li>How coordinated response can turn detection in one security domain into protective action elsewhere</li>
</ul>
