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 PROTECTION
Sophos Anti-Virus monitors all virus entry points, including
disks, programs, documents, network drives and CD-ROMs.
It also monitors emails, internet downloads, groupware and
archive files at the desktop, complementing the gateway
protection offered by Sophos MailMonitor. 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 CONTROL
Sophos 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.
UNRIVALLED, LEADING-EDGE ARCHITECTURE
Through 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.
EFFECTIVE SYSTEM RESOURCING
Sophos Anti-Virus performs incremental updating, downloading
only files which have changed since the previous version.
In addition Sophos virus identity files are quick and easy
to download and have minimum impact on bandwidth when they
are deployed over the network.
24-HOUR VIRUS EXPERTISE
Sophos Anti-Virus is backed up by 24-hour telephone support,
365 days per year, giving direct access to qualified technical
staff and virus experts.
CONSTANT UPDATE
Continuous updates are available for new viruses detected
in the wild and can be downloaded automatically using Enterprise
Manager. In addition, full monthly updates are available
for download and are also sent on CD to all customers at
the beginning of each month.
