Sophos Anti-Virus for Windows receives ICSA disinfection certification
Sophos, a world leader in corporate anti-virus protection,
announced today that its solution for Windows has been
awarded ICSA certification for disinfection.
Sophos Anti-Virus for Windows was tested against all known
in-the-wild viruses and disinfected them all with ease. This
provides further confirmation of Sophos's ability to protect
corporations from the viruses, worms and Trojans that threaten
their systems.
"This is further confirmation that Sophos Anti-Virus is living
up to customer expectations," said Ronnie Sutherland, product
manager at Sophos. "As the same virus engine is common to all
Sophos anti-virus products, this latest certification proves that
we can protect multi-platform environments to the highest
standard."
The International Computer Security Association is an
independent reviewing body only awarding certification to those
products able to perform outstandingly under test conditions.
