Queensland Health chooses Sophos Anti-Virus statewide
Queensland Health, the major provider of health services in
Queensland, Australia, has selected Sophos Anti-Virus to protect
its 4000 computer users across the state.
Thousands of email messages pass through Queensland Health's
email gateway in Brisbane every single day, and every one needs to
be scanned for computer viruses.
"Sophos Anti-Virus provides excellent protection against
computer viruses and Trojan horses", a spokesman for Queensland
Health commented. "Sophos Anti-Virus is also very fast ... it needs
to protect the amount of email traffic passing through our gateway
every day without slowing down its processing."
"We're delighted to have Queensland Health endorse our
anti-virus technology", said Richard Baldry, director of Sophos's
Australian office, "Sophos Anti-Virus is not only the world leader
in network anti-virus protection, but we also provide the best
technical support and customer service. Queensland Health are the
latest in a long line of health services to choose Sophos
Anti-Virus for their computer virus protection".
