One of the more eagerly anticipated and most widely welcomed security offerings to be included in the 2017 Duxbury Networking portfolio is Sophos Intercept-X, a new-generation, signatureless anti-exploit and anti-ransomware software solution.
According to Ross Anderson, Sophos product development manager at Duxbury Networking, “The Sophos-engineered technology underpinning Intercept-X includes root-cause analytics and advanced malware clean up together with advanced anti-exploit features that block zero-day threats without the need for traditional file scanning. In addition, automated forensic reporting is included in the solution, providing a 360-degree visual analysis of attack events while tracing them back to their origins. It also pinpoints additional infection points, provides advanced clean-up of malware.”
Anderson says a key feature of Sophos’ Intercept-X technology is its ability to hunt for – and eliminate – deeply embedded spyware and lingering malware that have been missed by conventional cybersecurity software and anti-virus systems.
“We expect Sophos and its Intercept-X technology to remain at the forefront of the security industry in 2018 as it clearly understands the threat landscape, changing business needs and customer challenges faced today,” he adds.
