Sophos Clean

Stefano Cherubini over 6 years ago

It is correct to say that Sophos Clean

Delete invalid registry keys

Automated malware cleaning

Behavior based detection

but Delete the malicious code is not a feature of it?

Hi Stefano,

You are right, except that the Automated malware detection works for the known infections.

Hi Stefano,
Can you let me know if you are licensed for Sophos clean separately or are you using this because you are licensed for Intercept X?

Reason I ask is because my organization is currently licensed for Intercept X and the recent upgrade to 2.0 no longer allows us to use Sophos Cleans as a stand alone scanner.

Thanks for your time,

Frankie..
