Sophos, a world leader in protecting businesses against viruses
and spam, has announced that Sophos Anti-Virus (3.83) has been
awarded the VB 100% award in the August 2004 edition of Virus
Bulletin. This is the 25th time Sophos Anti-Virus has won a VB 100%
award, confirming its position as one of the most powerful virus
protection products available.
Virus Bulletin tested 10 different Novell NetWare anti-virus
products for their detection rates, lack of false alarms and speed
of scanning. Sophos successfully detected all of the in-the-wild
viruses with no false alarms.
All Sophos products use the same virus-finding engine, ensuring
consistently high detection rates across all platforms.
About the Virus Bulletin 100% award
The Virus Bulletin 100% awards recognise those products
best able to detect viruses known to be 'in the wild'. Unlike some
other similar-sounding schemes, Virus Bulletin uses the most
up-to-date WildList in its tests. This means that products that are
'up with the game' are the ones most likely to be granted VB 100%
awards.
