Sophos rolls out latest version of its Endpoint Protection
Sophos has announced the latest version of its endpoint security solution. Sophos Patch Assessment identifies, prioritizes and scans for critical threat-related security patches. It also enables scanning for Microsoft and third-party patches from vendors.
Sophos Web filtering makes it easy to set a smart surfing policy for the 14 most inappropriate site categories from within the Endpoint Enterprise Console. Full-disk encryption in Sophos Endpoint ensures that data stored on desktops and laptops is kept secure, enabling IT staff to encrypt workstations and see their status. Moreover, Sophos encryption is integrated into this latest version of Sophos Endpoint, without a separate deployment or console required.
According to Gartner's "Buyer's Guide to Endpoint Protection Platforms," December 15, 2010, "by combining multiple technologies into a single management framework, EPPs (endpoint protection platforms) have the promise of increasing security while also lowering complexity, cost and administrative overhead."
"Our goal has always been to provide customers with complete security and protection everywhere-without complexity. The industry-first features within Sophos Endpoint 10 reaffirm that goal. Sophos Endpoint 10 is the result of a close collaboration with our customers and partners-improved performance, client-side web protection, patch identification and prioritization, and integrated disk encryption management. It is easier than ever to find at-risk computers, manage alerts, set policies and clean up threats," said Shaun Paice, Vice-President, Product Management, Sophos.
