The rapid expansion of the Internet of Things has fostered convenience and connectedness for consumers. It has also opened the door for creative hackers. Recently, hackers used hundreds of thousands of common internet-connected devices in consumers’ homes, without the owners’ knowledge, to launch a DDoS attack that temporarily brought down crucial parts of the internet’s infrastructure.
Attacks in the past have shown that passwords in IoT devices provide insufficient security. Additionally, IoT devices are too constrained for implementing biometric functions.
The question then becomes how to authenticate to such devices and can the industry adopt a standardized approach despite a highly fragmented IoT landscape. This presentation by Rolf Lindemann of Nok Nok Labs, explores how FIDO Authentication can provide convenient and strong authentication in an array of IoT use cases.
The presentation describes how F-Secure has transformed its business model to Security as a Service (SaaS) in telecommunication market. Security as a Service uses cloud platforms to offer security services.

Competitor Strengths Competitor Weaknesses
Feature set – In addition to core anti-malware protection, the endpoint has a broad range of supplementary features such
as application whitelisting, device control and web control
Strength of features – Bitdefender can list a large number of features, but on closer examination the strength (e.g. depth of
exploit prevention) and usability (e.g. DLP looks for specific words/phrases only) of many features is reduced
Test Results – Bitdefender often performs well in tests from 3rd parties such as AV-Test and AV-Comparatives
Endpoint centric – Bitdefender does not deliver a wider security portfolio and has no equivalent to Sophos Central’s unified
management of multiple security technologies
Popular OEM choice – Its inclusion in several 3rd party security tools as an OEM partner feeds Bitdefender’s analysis engine
with a variety of customer environments and associated threats, ultimately benefiting product efficacy
Synchronized Security – Network protection products are not available, meaning there is no opportunity to integrate
endpoint and network security
Why Sophos Wins
Advanced Threat Protection
Intercept X combines industry leading anti-exploit, anti-ransomware and deep
learning malware protection.
Security Ecosystem
Manage endpoint, server, mobile, encryption, email, firewall and Wi-Fi through
the same Sophos Central console.
Synchronized Security
On top of endpoint protection, Sophos can also provide gateway protection
through next-gen firewall, web, and email security. With Synchronized Security,
Sophos products communicate and share threat information, allowing stronger
and simpler security.

Comments Context
Gartner
Bitdefender remains in the ‘Niche Players’ quadrant of the 2021 Gartner Magic Quadrant
for Endpoint Protection.
The report notes solid performance results in public tests, although cautions that “The
Bitdefender EDR capability lacks advanced threat hunting”. Sophos is placed in the Leaders
quadrant for the 12th year.
AV-Test Bitdefender performs well and receives high scores in these tests. AV-Test looks at Protection, Performance and Usability.
Forrester Wave
Bitdefender dropped to the ‘Strong Performers’ section of the 2021 Forrester Wave
Endpoint Security Suite.
The report highlighted Bitdefender’s expansion over the last two years, although noted a
lack of advanced threat hunting and detection capabilities. Sophos was named a Strong
Performer in this report.
SE Labs
Bitdefender has not participated in SE Labs tests in 2022. It came out just behind Sophos in
the Small Business test for Q4, 2021.
Sophos achieved the AAA rating across Enterprise, SMB, and consumer products.
Bitdefender last participated in the enterprise test in July-September 2020 with decent
results coming in just behind Sophos. SE Labs named Sophos Intercept X the Best Small
Business Endpoint Product, 2020 and best Enterprise Endpoint, 2021.
Watch Out For
Lightweight Agent
Customer feedback indicates the Bitdefender agent generally has only a
light impact on machine performance.
Increased Awareness
Although Bitdefender has traditionally been associated with consumers and
small businesses, it is expanding rapidly and may come up during
competitive situations with mid-size and enterprise customers.
Client Firewall
Bitdefender provides a client firewall and the ability to configure granular
rules from the GravityZone admin console.

Detailed Comparison
How Sophos does it How Bitdefender does it How we win
Synchronized
Security
With synchronized security, products communicate with each other both
across the network and on endpoints to mitigate risks and stop data loss.
Security information is shared and acted on automatically, isolating
infected endpoints before the threat can spread and slashing incident
response time.
Bitdefender does not have next-gen firewalls, meaning it cannot offer the
same coordinated threat response. The customer would be required to
purchase separate products to protect their gateway, which would operate
in isolation from the endpoint.
Simple setup, powerful features
Ask: If your firewall alerted you to suspicious traffic from
an IP address on your network, how long would it take you
to track down the computer, isolate it from the network?
Show: Enable Synchronized Security within a matter of
clicks and demonstrate the XG Firewall automatically
isolating a compromised endpoint client.
Exploit Prevention Sophos anti-exploit technology protects against the techniques that
attackers may use to exploit a software vulnerability. Intercept X delivers
more than 25 exploit prevention techniques to ensure protection against
attacks that leverage previously unknown vulnerabilities.
Bitdefender has integrated ‘Enhanced Anti-Exploit’ into the Advanced
Threat Control component of the endpoint. The feature works by
monitoring potentially vulnerable applications for exploit behavior, however
very little information is available its actual protection capabilities.
Bitdefender also offer a Hyper-Detect module, which appears positioned as
the more in-depth exploit prevention component. Again, there is limited
information on what actual techniques it is able to protection against.
Hyper-Detect is only available through the upper license suites (Elite and
Ultra).
Overall, there is nothing to indicate Bitdefender delivers anything like the
range of exploit protection that is available through Intercept X.
Depth of exploit protection
Ask: What would it mean to you if you could run one of
the industry’s most comprehensive exploit protection
without in-depth configuration?
Point out: Sophos Intercept X covers more than 25 types
of exploit prevention techniques.
Machine Learning Intercept X’s deep learning model detects unknown malware and
potentially unwanted applications. The model can take a file, extract
millions of features, run it through the host-based model, and determine
if it is malicious before it executes. It does all of this in about 20
milliseconds with a model that is under 20MB in size.
Our machine learning experience began as part of a 2010 DARPA project,
and we have proven high speed, low impact performance.
Bitdefender endpoint uses local and cloud-based machine learning models.
It is unclear which actual models are used, but there is nothing to indicate it
uses Deep Learning models like those within Intercept X.
Proven effectiveness
Show: Our extensive publications on our website, Invincea
NSS Labs report, invite the customer to look at historic
VirusTotal feedback.
Ransomware
Protection
CryptoGuard technology detects ransomware through its behavior,
stopping it from encrypting files, and then automatically rolls back any
files that were encrypted before detection. WipeGuard protects from
attacks that encrypt the MBR and render the machine unable to boot
into the operating system.
Ransomware Vaccine
Bitdefender has integrated the previously standalone ‘Ransomware Vaccine’
tool into GravityZone endpoint. It works by tricking malware into thinking a
machine is already infected and does not need to be re-infected, however it
only works with a limited number of ransomware families meaning it is likely
to struggle to keep up with new techniques.
Comprehensive protection- behavioral detection protects against the
latest ransomware

Endpoint Detection
& Response (EDR
and XDR)
Intercept X Advanced with XDR suits both IT administrators and security
analysts. While it is accessible to IT generalists by replicating tasks
normally performed by skilled analysts, it also provides the core manual
tools that trained analysts would expect.
Threat Visibility:
Deep Learning Threat Indicators and Analysis
For the grey area between known-good and known-bad, deep (machine)
learning prioritizes a list of suspicious files for further investigation. The
comprehensive file analysis report enables customers to quickly
determine if a suspicious file should be blocked or allowed.
Threat Hunting:
Live Discover search: Allows customers to quickly discover IT operations
issues or to hunt down suspicious activity on both Windows and Mac.
- On-disk data: Windows and Mac endpoint data store with
super detailed, live data covering up to the last 90 days
- Cloud data lake: Cross product data with 30 days’ worth of
data
- XDR Platforms: Endpoint, Server, Firewall, Email, Mobile,
Cloud Optix, Microsoft 365 connector (Azure AD, Exchange,
Teams, Sharepoint)
- Air to ground reconnaissance: Quickly scan an entire estate
and then drill down to file content on a single device
- Flexible: Includes out-of-the-box, fully customizable SQL
queries. Customers can create completely new, custom
queries
- Schedule: Retrieve critical data from the data lake overnight
- Comprehensive: Provides up to 90 days fast access to
current and historical on-disk data. Data includes insight
into artifacts’ reputation and machine learning scores from
SophosLabs and Sophos AI
Response:
Automatic response – The intelligent Sophos endpoint agent can
automatically clean up or block threats. It is also capable of isolating the
endpoint.
Live Response command line: Customers can remotely access Windows,
Mac and Linux devices via a native command line to perform further
investigation, install and uninstall software, or remediate any issues that
Intercept X cannot address automatically. It can also be used for IT
operational actions such as rebooting or installing and uninstalling
software.
GravityZone Ultra includes EDR functionality. Since retiring its network
sensor in May 2021, it rebranded its XDR solution to “XEDR” (eXtended
EDR). This refers to detection capabilities across workstations, servers and
containers. This includes network analysis from the endpoints, not a
separate sensor.
Threat Visibility
XEDR provides a visual representation of the threat chain along with details
about files and processes involved in a detection. Customers can submit files
to a cloud sandbox for more detailed analysis, although there is no
equivalent of Sophos’ Deep Learning Threat Indicators and Malware Analysis
feature.
Hunting – Threat hunting capabilities are very limited to only cover items
that are linked to a detection and does not allow customers to search for
indicators of compromise across endpoints. Bitdefender points to its MDR
service where the Bitdefender endpoint is used as part of a third-party EDR
tool. It does not ingest data from email.
Response
The administrator can take remediation actions such as quarantining a file
or isolating an endpoint. A remote shell command line is available.
Automation – Bitdefender does provide automatic blocking and clean up.
However, it does not have an equivalent to Synchronized Security that mean
it can remotely isolate endpoint and then reinstate connectivity once back
to a healthy state. Endpoints can only be isolated manually.
Guided incident response
Show: Deep Learning Malware Analysis helps easily
identify similarities with known malicious files.
Application control Pre-populated- Administrators can control installation, track usage or
block execution of unauthorized applications within a few clicks. Choose
from a pre-populated list of applications that is kept up to date by
Sophos Labs.
Reliable – detection is maintained and tested by Sophos Labs. Users are
not able to circumvent detection.
Platform independent – it works transparently across platforms
Bitdefender offers application control through its Application ‘blacklisting’
feature (part of Content Control). The administrator must either specify the
path of each application executable or run an ‘Application Discovery’ task to
generate a list of applications present on endpoints. Applications will no
longer be blocked if moved or the name is changed.
Compared to Sophos, the Bitdefender application blacklisting requires more
effort, is more prone to mistakes, and is easily circumvented.
A ‘whitelisting’ feature is available, but only with the on-prem console.
Simply choose applications from a pre-populated list
Ask: How do you currently control which applications are
allowed on your network?
Show: Demonstrate how easy it is in Sophos Central to
create a policy that blocks file sharing tools such as
BitTorrent.

How Sophos does it How Bitdefender does it How we win
Web Protection and
Control
Sophos URL filtering blocks users from accessing websites that are
hosting malware or phishing attacks.
Bitdefender provides web protection through the ‘Traffic’ and ‘Web’
sections of Content Control policies. The Traffic component blocks access to
malicious websites and prevents malware being downloaded. The Web
module allows administrators to block/allow access to certain website
categories (e.g. Games), and also lets them specify the time during which
the policy is enforced.
Prevent users from inappropriate and dangerous websites
Ask: How do you stop users from accessing websites that
are inappropriate or hosting malware?
Device Control We enable you to define which storage devices or network interfaces to
block, set to read only or allow full access to. It is simple to set
exceptions for specific devices, as they can easily be identified in the
event log.
It is not necessary to install or enable any additional modules in order to
get up and running with this feature.
Devices can be blocked or allowed, and exclusions for specific models can be
added for more granular control.
In order to use this feature, it is necessary to install the Device Control
component. If the component is not installed as part of the main
Bitdefender agent installation, the administrator would need to create and
push out a task to the machine before the feature could be used.
No additional component required
Data Loss
Prevention (DLP)
DLP is integrated into Sophos endpoints meaning no additional plugins
are required. There are a large set of predefined detection rules for
common data types, and, if required, customers can build their own
custom rules using regular expressions.
Bitdefender GravityZone includes a Data Protection module, which allows
the administrator to create rules to detect data being moved through web
or email traffic. However, there are no pre-defined rules, meaning the
administrator has to manually create a rule for each type of data they want
to protect. Additionally, the rules do not allow the customer to block data
types (e.g. block all credit card numbers) and instead force them to specify
the actual values to be identified (in the case of credit cards, at least 5 digits
from each card).
This lack of control means that the customer is likely to end up creating very
specific detections that only block single credit cards or email addresses.
Alternatively, generic detections on sensitive key words e.g. “Intercept X”
are used, but such broad detections are likely to impact on legitimate
business work.
Simple configuration
Ask: What measures do you have in place to prevent
important data leaving the organization? How much
time do you have available to tune these settings?
Management Anywhere anytime
Cloud based Sophos Central provides protection for users wherever they
are and a management interface that is incredibly easy to use. Policies
can be assigned by user or by device.
Bitdefender products are managed through the ‘GravityZone’ central
management console. The console is available either on-premise or cloud
hosted, although mobile devices can only be managed with an on-premise
installation.
Administrators access the GravityZone console through a web browser,
although the server itself is a Linux based virtual machine. On-premise
customers need to import and run the GravityZone server on a virtualization
platform such as VMware, Citrix or Hyper-V.
Intuitive management console
Show: Get Sophos Central in front of the prospect, either in
person, as a trial or with the online demo. Nothing speaks
to our strengths as strongly as seeing the product first hand.
Server Protection Advanced protection features such as deep learning, exploit prevention
and anti-ransomware are coupled with server specific capabilities such
as cloud workload discovery, server lockdown and automatic scan
exclusions. Unlike solutions that are designed for end-user workstations,
Sophos Server Protection specifically protects servers while minimizing
the impact on performance.
Policies
There is no concept of server specific policies or features. ‘Security Servers’
can be configured, but these are designed to relay communication between
endpoints and the main GravityZone console, or to stagger scanning on
virtual machines. Virtual machine hosts and guests are grouped separately
from physical devices; however, the same policy options are available for
both. The customer does not benefit from server protection features such
as file integrity monitoring (FIM), AWS visualization and automatic scan
exclusions.
Lockdown
The Application Control feature can be used to achieve a similar function to
Server Lockdown, as it allows the user to block only known applications from
running. However, it requires more steps than Server Lockdown, as it is
necessary for the administrator to first run an Application Discovery task to
determine what programs exist on the client machine. Update processes
associated with these applications also need to be manually identified and
added by the customer.

Mobile Protection
and Management
Consolidated Management
Sophos Central’s unified admin interface enables customers to manage
mobile devices alongside endpoint protection and other Sophos
technologies such as encryption, email or wi-fi.
For customers who prefer an on-premise installation, there is feature
parity across the platforms, meaning customers do not miss out on
functionality by selecting one option over another.
Secure
A rich set of device management capabilities and powerful containers
secure sensitive business information on mobile devices, with leading
anti-malware technology protecting users and devices from malicious
content and apps.
Lacks Advanced Features
Mobile protection and management is available, but only when using an on-
premise installation of the GravityZone management console. It is possible
to enforce certain mobile security measures, such as lock screen passwords,
but more advanced features, such as blocking a camera or iCloud backups,
are not available. The compliance settings are comparatively generic as they
allow the administrator to block or wipe the uncompliant devices, but do
not allow more specific options such as removing only email or Wi-Fi if the
device is jailbroken or has not checked in since a certain period.
Malware scanning is available for Android devices; however, the scanning is
performed in the cloud rather than on the mobile device itself.

Additional Security
Technologies
In addition to endpoint protection, Sophos Central allows customers to
protect a range of other areas all through the same management
console. These include:
▪ Device Encryption
▪ Email Gateway
▪ Mobile Security and Control
▪ Wireless Networks
▪ Phish Threat (user education)
▪ XG Firewall
▪ Cloud Optix
Bitdefender offers mobile device management and device encryption.
However, it does not provide any of the other additional security offerings
that Sophos Central does.
Reduce administration through Sophos Central
Point out: Customers can consolidate management of
various security technologies through the Sophos
Central console
Managed Detection
and Response
(MDR)
Sophos Managed Threat Response (MTR) is a fully managed threat
hunting, detection and response service that provides organizations with
a dedicated 24/7 security team to not only detect but neutralize the
most sophisticated and complex threats. Regardless of the service tier
selected (Standard or Advanced), customers can opt to have the Sophos
MTR team operate in any of three Response Modes to accommodate
their unique needs.
- Fully managed – allows customer to effectively outsource
its SOC if needed
- Three operational modes – Notify, Collaborate, or Authorize
- Any size customer – from SMB to enterprise
- Best protection – based on Intercept X ensure maximum
protection
GravityZone Managed Detection and Response (MDR is available in two
service tiers: Advanced/Premium and Enterprise.
They don’t appear to have response modes like us but do offer automated
pre-approved response and expert recommendations. The pre-approved
response actions are stop process, block/delete/quarantine file, block
IP/port and isolate host.
According to Bitdefender’s site, they provide “automated remediation” and
“custom incident response actions based on playbooks.” This is what we
refer to as “pushbutton response.” In other words, if it can be scripted and
automated, the Bitdefender SOC can push a button and kick off the script.
Unlike Sophos, Bitdefender is not providing hands-on-keyboard response
that addresses the unique circumstances of a given incident.
- MTR is a fully managed service
- Strong endpoint protection and automated cleanup
minimizes number of alerts
- Flexible mode of operation and authorized actions
mean that customers can outsource SOC to Sophos
