Can I use Sophos with Windows Defender?

Can I use Sophos along with Windows Defender Firewall in Windows 10? Also, can Sophos scan websites on the Microsoft Edge browser? Can we scan a WordPress website using Sophos and clean it? Will it create any kind of conflicts?

    Can I use Sophos along with Windows Defender Firewall in Windows 10? Yes.

    Also, can Sophos scan websites on the Microsoft Edge browser? Yes. Well, it'll know the reputation and category of a website, and block, warn, or allow traffic depending on the settings. It'll scan files downloaded by the browser for maliciousness.

    Can we scan a WordPress website using Sophos and clean it? If the web server has Sophos installed, yes. Alternatively, if the web server can be connected to as a share, it can be scanned an cleaned, but I'm not sure if that is possible with the free product. Connect to a share, right-click the share, and see if there is a Scan option.

    Will it create any kind of conflicts? Probably not. Try it and you'll know it.

    So it is possible to install Sophos on my webserver? How can I do that? Is there some kind of plugin or something similar? Thanks for the answer by the way.

    It depends on what your webserver is running on. There is no free version for Windows Server or Linux. If it is a machine at home, you could get the free Sophos Firewall for Home and use the WAF instead.
