Better together
The security included in our Web Protection Suite works
together to deliver better protection, greater visibility and
ease of use—including:
Ì We combine gateway, endpoint and the cloud to give you
complete web protection everywhere users go. Set your
web policy at the gateway and scan at the endpoint.
Ì Our new WebLENS network layer scanning technology
blocks threats using content reassembly with JavaScript
emulation and behavioral analysis to stop malicious code
before it’s passed to the browser.
Ì Anti-malware, HIPS, device and application control,
web filtering and DLP all in one agent and managed by
one console.
Ì One engine across all platforms and points including
desktops, laptop and Exchange servers,
as well as the email and web gateways.
Ì Our SophosLabs analysts constantly monitor and fine-
tune detection for you—keeping an eye on applications
and websites to avoid emerging threats, spam and more.
Ì One vendor to call for 24-hour, certified expert support
and one-on-one assistance.
