The nature of information security has changed forever. The old approach to security - identifying code known to be bad and preventing it from breaching the organization's network perimeter—no longer works. In addition to firewalls, anti-virus and anti-spam, organizations need security across a number of fronts that cover the entire infrastructure. A comprehensive security strategy requires more than just malware blocking - encryption, email, web, mobile and network access control solutions are strategic necessities.

That's where Sophos comes in. Sophos provides a full range of endpoint, encryption, email, web, mobile and NAC solutions that are simple to deploy, manage and use.
