Sophos AI Defense Is Now Generally Available
Sophos, Tuesday, October 13th, 2026
Sophos AI Defense is now GA, giving visibility and control over shadow AI and protecting sensitive data in AI use.
Sophos announced general availability of Sophos AI Defense, first introduced in July, to address AI adoption outpacing what security and IT teams can see or control.
Because new AI tools, embedded AI features and shadow AI create blind spots around where AI is used and what data it can access, AI Defense helps organizations discover AI use, understand risk, apply guardrails and protect sensitive information.
It is powered by Sophos Fusion, the company's AI-native cybersecurity defense system, so it runs in the environment customers already use.
