IT security and control firm Sophos today announced that CRN has
tested the
ES1000, which delivers complete email security, incorporating
anti-spam, anti-phishing and anti-malware in a single appliance.
CRN awarded the ES1000 a 5 star rating for security, ease-of-use
and features categories.
CRN noted that the ES1000 had "very high accuracy results from
the onset and quickly became a reviewer favorite during
testing."
The reviewer concluded that the key selling point for the ES1000
is its web-based management interface.

deliver compact, intelligent and easy-to-manage protection for

management of the messaging infrastructure. Maximum uptime is
ensured by built-in redundancy and automatic system maintenance.

automatically receiving anti-virus and anti-spam updates and
reporting on hardware status. Optional remote assistance is
