Sophos publishes white paper on the integrated solution to malicious content
Experts at SophosLabsâ„¢, Sophos's global
network of virus and spam research centers, have today published a
white paper describing the new and emerging internet dangers that
can spread around the world in seconds, and how SophosLabs helps
businesses secure against them.
The white paper, "Mind the gap: the integrated multi-tier
solution to malicious content", explains that the increasingly
complex nature of today's fast-moving threats radically changes the
criteria for defense and demands an integrated, multi-tier approach
to threat management. Cross-threat expertise and technology in
SophosLabs makes Sophos uniquely able to respond to this
challenge.
The white paper makes the point that the distinction between
different types of threat (such as viruses, spam, phishing,
spyware) is no longer always clear and handling the threats and
threat entry points as separate problems will leave gaps in network
security. SophosLabs combines expertise in both malware and email
analysis to ensure that the full range of detection capabilities
can be applied to any new threat, closing the window of
vulnerability.
