Overview
System requirements
Award-winning virus protection
All traffic entering or leaving through the third-party application - for example, web or email traffic, including compressed attachments - is checked for malware. Sophos Genotype® virus detection technology proactively blocks families of viruses, and Behavioral Genotype Protection automatically guards against zero-day threats by analyzing the behavior of the code before it executes. Malware updates from SophosLabs can be kept fully up to date across the internet.
Real-time monitoring
Compliant gateway applications can monitor email, web and FTP traffic in real time.
Automatic updates
The latest software and virus detection updates are automatically downloaded through our updating application, EM Library.

Simple integration
Choice of integration methods and languages to suit environment and skills.
Efficient memory usage
Uses a single multi-threading copy of the virus detection engine to process all requests.
Virus reporting
Every virus incident can be reported to the administrator, making day-to-day management even easier.
