Protecting UNIX with Endpoint Security and Control

Anti-virus protection for UNIX, NetWare and OpenVMS

 

Sophos Endpoint Security and Control provides integrated cross-platform virus and spyware detection on non-Windows servers, desktops and laptops. The powerful detection engine scans all potential entry points for full network protection.

 

Detect and clean-up with award-winning virus protection

 

Detection and disinfection of viruses, spyware, Trojans, and worms in real time, at every potential point of infection, ensures full network protection on platforms such as NetWare and most versions of UNIX. Sophos Anti-Virus is 100% Checkmark-certified for spyware detection.

 

Minimize system impact with high performance scanning

 

Scanning and disinfection can be performed on demand and automatically at scheduled times, resulting in a minimum impact on system performance. Decision Caching™ technology means only those files that have changed are rescanned, resulting in faster scanning with minimum impact on system performance.

 

Detect zero-day threats before they execute

 

Unique Behavioral Genotype® Protection automatically guards against unknown threats by analyzing behavior before code executes, delivering the benefits of a Host Intrusion Prevention System (HIPS).

 

Easy management options put you in control

 

Sophos Anti-Virus for UNIX can be managed from the command line or through Enterprise Console*, giving you the flexibility you need.

 

Get the smallest, fastest updates

 

The latest software and virus detection updates are automatically downloaded from SophosLabs™, ensuring that all computers across the network, including remote laptops, are fully protected.

 

Automate and customize reporting

 

Every virus incident is automatically reported to the administrator, making day-to-day management even easier.
