Sophos Anti-Virus receives West Coast Checkmark for 100% detection of in-the-wild viruses yet again
Sophos announced today that its flagship product, Sophos Anti-Virus, has yet again achieved West Coast Labs Checkmark certification.
Sophos Anti-Virus version 3.66 for NetWare has again successfully been awarded Anti-Virus Checkmark level 1, providing further independent verification that Sophos is capable of protecting against all known 'in-the-wild' viruses in both on-demand and on-access modes.
The Checkmark system has been developed by West Coast Labs, an independent research and test centre. It provides a reliable means of authenticating those products which users can consistently rely upon to provide the highest quality anti-virus solutions.
"Companies running NetWare servers realise that it is essential that they protect their data and users against the spread of viruses," said Graham Cluley, senior technology consultant at Sophos. "We are delighted to have the high quality of Sophos's products confirmed yet again by an independent testing body."
