Success story
Eliminating offensive content and removing spam
In response to the increasing threat of spam and viruses, the University of Ulster now uses Sophos Email Security and Control to filter up to 140,000 messages a day, protecting 35,000 mailboxes from email-borne threats.
"Together with the reduced helpdesk involvement in directly handling spam, we estimate that the university is saving more than £240,000 a year in support costs."
