What are the two primary functions of Sophos Clean?

Sophos Clean is specifically designed to effectively address threats posed by malware and potentially unwanted applications (PUAs). One of its core functions is to remove these types of threats from infected systems, ensuring that the system is free from malicious software that could cause harm.

The second primary function is to manage detected threats by utilizing the SafeStore feature. SafeStore acts as a quarantine area where Sophos Clean can isolate and securely store detected malware or PUA items. This process not only protects the integrity of the system but also allows users or administrators to review and decide on the next steps, such as whether to permanently delete or restore these items.

Together, these functions make Sophos Clean a powerful tool in maintaining system security and integrity, allowing for thorough cleaning of systems while offering the flexibility to handle detected items responsibly.
