Cloud Optix vs. Native Cloud Tools
Cloud providers offer their own security tools (like AWS Security Hub or Azure Defender), but they only work for their own platform. Cloud Optix gives you a single, unified view across all your clouds.

FAQs for Sophos Cloud Optix
Q: What is CSPM and CWPP?
A: CSPM (Cloud Security Posture Management) finds and fixes misconfigurations and compliance risks in your cloud settings. CWPP (Cloud Workload Protection Platform) protects the actual workloads (servers, containers) running in your cloud. Cloud Optix Advanced does both.
Q: How is Sophos Cloud Optix licensed?
A: Cloud Optix is typically licensed based on the number of "assets" you are protecting (e.g., cloud servers, databases, containers). Contact us with the size of your cloud environment, and we can provide an accurate quote.
Q: How does Cloud Optix integrate with Sophos MDR?
A: When you have both, alerts from Cloud Optix (like a high-risk misconfiguration or a new, exposed database) are sent directly to the Sophos MDR team. This allows the 24/7 team to investigate and respond to cloud-based threats, not just endpoint threats.
