What is Sophos Central? #
Sophos Central is a solution for managing all your Sophos next-gen technologies, including endpoint, server, mobile, firewall, ZTNA, email, encryption, and more.
Why Should You Use the Sophos Central Connector? #
The Sophos Central connector provides visibility into the assets in your environment. You can use this visibility to:
-
ensure assets are managed per your security policies
-
derive relationships between assets, users, applications, and data
How Does This Connector Work? #
Lucidum executes read-only requests to the Sophos Central REST API and ingests only meta-data about Sophos Central devices. Lucidum does not retrieve any data stored on your assets.
