Account Health Check

Check that your account has the best protection.

The Account Health Check dashboard shows you whether you're making the best use of your Sophos security products. For example, you can see whether you're using all the protection features included in your license.

To see the dashboard, go to Dashboards > Account Health Check.

Health check scores

We show scores for your account health. These reflect whether your devices or policies are using recommended, secure settings.

There's an overall health score as well as scores for health checks on specific security features. All scores are out of 100. A score of 100 indicates that we didn't find any issues.

To see what the scores mean and how we calculate them, see Health check scores.
