provide additional support
Taipei, Taiwan - Sophos, a world leader in corporate anti-virus
protection announced today that the Taiwan National University has
chosen Sophos's SAVI
technology to defend the University's email gateway against the
threat of viruses, worms and Trojans. Taiwan National University
selected Sophos's anti-virus solution after the University
discovered Sophos and its success in stopping the recent Klez-H
worm.
Sophos's SAVI technology proved its superior performance and
anti-virus ability with the success of combatting the Klez-H worm.
We are particularly impressed with the speedy response and
efficient technical support that we have received. Our concerns for
customised programmes and open source platforms, as an academic
research unit have also been met through Sophos's SAVI
technology."
Taiwan National University was able to deploy Sophos's
anti-virus solution quickly and easily with the assistance of
Softnext, a leading Gateway Security ASP in Taiwan. Softnext has
bundled the Sophos anti-virus engine into their Gateway product,
which offers email filtering, backup, audit and anti-virus
functions for corporates.
"Sophos's anti-virus solution offers high compatibility,
stability and can be used in 23 different operating systems with
the greatest support in Unix. Sophos's expertise in the education
market and strong technical support has also helped us in gaining
more enterprise customers in Taiwan," added Kenny Liu, General
Manager of Softnext Technology Corp.
"Taiwan National University has joined a long list of companies
and institutions around the world in deploying Sophos's anti-virus
solutions," remarked Dr Jan Hruska, joint CEO of Sophos Plc. "In a
short time frame, our technology and business partners in Taiwan
have managed to capitalize on Sophos's strengths in defending
viruses. I am confident that their continuing efforts will further
enhance Sophos's image in Asia."
