UBC Media Group plc, producer of the Pepsi Chart Show, chooses
Sophos Anti-Virus protection
Sophos, the world's leading developer of corporate anti-virus
protection, has announced that UBC Media Group plc, producer of
popular entertainment programmes such as the Pepsi Chart Show, has
chosen Sophos Anti-Virus to protect its computer systems against
computer viruses.
"Our computer systems are used for everything from general
office work to audio recording and editing," said Paul Markham,
Systems Architect at Unique Interactive, UBC's IT Division. "We
chose Sophos Anti-Virus for its excellent reputation and the ease
with which it can be updated over a network. We were also very
unhappy at the level of service we were receiving from other
anti-virus software developers and were attracted by Sophos's
commitment to providing round the clock support 365 days a
year."
Staff at UBC use PCs to run office applications, record and edit
audio and video, for internet distribution, media delivery and as
web servers. Sophos Anti-Virus will protect the computer systems at
the group's two sites, located in London.
