Sophos Complete Security Suite

dohc97

We are currently using an AV suite from another company.  I just wanted to ask your opinion on the above security suite as it is one of the products we are evaluating.  

- how efficient is it in catching virus, malware and adware

- how is it affecting the performance of both the server it is installed in and the user's machines

- how manageable is it as far as pushing to new machines

- can I install the Enterprise Console in a VM

I may have some more questions in the future.

Thanks..

    Hi,

    I've not run through the eval recently but during the eval setup you should have been emailed some credentials I would think. These are the credentials that are used by Sophos Update Manager (SUM) to pull down the updates you are licensed for.

    You can see in the Update Managers list view, your SUM, if you edit that config, on the "Sources" tab you can add Sophos and the connection details including a user name and password.  When you first launch SEC after installing, the wizard you mention is essentially configuring this.

    I would think if you check your emails from Sophos one might have some update credentials.  If not, you could contact Support or run through the eval pages on the website.

    Regards,
