Sophos's unswerving focus on the anti-virus threat guarantees a rapid response to every new virus incident. Sophos Anti-Virus brings 100% virus protection across the entire network in both on-access and on-demand modes.
All points protectionSophos Anti-Virus monitors all virus entry points, including disks, programs, documents, network drives, CD-ROMs, emails, Internet downloads, groupware and archive files. At any of these points Sophos Anti-Virus prevents access to any virus-infected file and, if appropriate, disinfects it.
Centralised automation for single point controlSophos Anti-Virus's unique approach allows centralised, network-wide installation, configuration and updating from a single machine. Virus incidents are automatically reported and centrally logged. Adding new servers and workstations is simple and straightforward. Pull and push technologies ensure low network load operation without user intervention.
Internet, gateway and email integrity
Sophos's groupware scanning software provides server-based checking of all incoming, outgoing and stored email, including compressed files, on Notes/Domino systems. Items are checked for hostile attachments before being sent on to the intended recipient. Third-party developers can profit from Sophos Anti-Virus's powerful virus detection engine, integrating their applications with it via SAVI (Sophos Anti-Virus Interface) .
Unrivalled, leading-edge architectureThrough its Intelligent File Recognition, Sophos Anti-Virus's architecture determines which files need to be virus checked by the Sophos virus detection engine, even if they are embedded in other files. Fast scanning speeds, combined with maximum user transparency and minimal performance overheads are not affected by the growing number of viruses.
24-hour virus expertiseAll Sophos products are backed up by 24-hour telephone support, 365 days per year, giving direct access to qualified technical staff and virus experts.
Simple, flexible licensingSophos Anti-Virus licences include protection for servers, workstations and portables and, where applicable, gateways, ensuring that there are no hidden extra costs. Sophos licences can be tailored to meet the exact requirements of each customer.
