To provide the most complete protection for your
client computers you should enable SONAR.
SONAR interoperates with some other Symantec
Endpoint Protection Small Business Edition
features. SONAR requires Auto-Protect.
You can use the Computers tab to check whether
Proactive Threat Protection is enabled on your
client computers.
Note:
Legacy clients do not report Proactive
Threat Protection status to Symantec Endpoint

Protection policy.

SONAR uses reputation data in addition to
heuristics to make detections. If you disable
Insight lookups, SONAR makes detections by
using heuristics only. The rate of false positives
might increase, and the protection that SONAR
provides is limited.
You enable or disable Insight Lookups in the
Submissions dialog.

Symantec Security Response"
