Sophos, a world leader in IT security and control, today
announced the launch of a new security blog
designed to provide breaking news, insight and commentary on
emerging security threats.
The SophosLabs blog, which will be written by leading security
researchers at SophosLabs™, Sophos's global
network of malware and spam analysis centers, will be updated
several times a day to cover the latest technical information and
stories of interest.
Regular contributions from researchers based in Oxford, Boston,
Vancouver and Sydney will allow for round-the-clock updates. Main
contributors will include principal virus researchers Vanja Svajcer
and Fraser Howard, as well as Mark Harris, global director of
SophosLabs.
"In today's world of rapidly evolving security threats,
organizations need swift access to information about what's out
there, what's interesting and what's causing a problem," said Mark
Harris. "The new blog provides Sophos customers, business partners
and the general public with updates on interesting new malware and
