Sophos – Security and Firewall

Sophos Anti-Virus is the virus protection software recommended by MIT. This software detects and cleans up viruses, Trojans, worms, spyware, adware and other potentially unwanted applications.

Sophos provides next-generation firewall protection that is relatively easy to set up and manage. It blocks unknown threats, automatically responds to security incidents by isolating compromised systems, and exposes hidden user, application and threat risks on the network. Sophos develops products for communication endpoint, encryption, network security, email security, mobile security and unified threat management. Sophos is primarily focused on providing security software to 30 to 5,000 seat organizations.
