G'day Sophos & Sophos users, I have searched and have yet to find a definitive answer: Difference between Sophos' 'Anti-Virus for Mac Home Edition' & 'Endpoint Protection'? Is the AV the same in both (Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac 8), but 'Endpoint Protection' come with 'SafeGuard Enterprise 6 for Mac'? Is there a feature chart? Thanks in advance for your advice. Mike

The significant difference is that "Endpoint Protection" integrates with Sophos Enterprise Console, which allows consolidated reporting and configuration of multiple endpoints across platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux and numerous others).  The detection data and scan engine is the same for both (literally the same data packages), backed by SophosLabs and Live Protection.
