Productive Corporation

• URL Filtering - Essential foundation for preventing your users from visiting malicious, risky and inappropriate sites.  Also, Sophos provides reputation risk classification data to block risky sites across all categories.
• Advanced Web Malware Scanning - Blocks threats using real-time content reassembly with JavaScript emulation and behavioural analysis to identify and stop malicious code at the gateway before it's passed to the browser.  It catches even the most advanced zero-day threats without latency or performance impacts. 
• Content Control - Includes policy options that you deploy with a few clicks.  You have control over file types; potentially unwanted applications (PUAs); malware attempts to call home and attempts to post sensitive data to sites such as webmail, forums and blogs. 
• HTTPS Scanning - Sophos can scan encrypted HTTPS traffic for malware and inappropriate content, just like normal unencrypted traffic.  A warning will display if a certificate looks suspicious.
• Anonymizing Proxies - Are popular amongst rogue users for bypassing your web filtering policy.  Sophos' unique technology dynamically identifies signs of proxy use to stop violators. 
• Call Home Detection - Identifies infected machines on your network that attempt to call home to download more malware, steal your data, participate in a botnet or worse.  Easily find infected machines and clean them up before they cause any damage. 
• Extend Your Protection to Offfsite Users - When you combine one of our web appliances with Sophos Endpoint Protection, remote users remain protected and compliant and you maintain full control and visibility into activity wherever they go. 
• Role-based Administration - You can delegate web management duties to a variety of different individuals, each with their own privileges.  In addition to full access, pre-defined roles for Helpdesk, Policy, Reporting and User Activity are provided. 
• Automated Maintenance - Sophos provides automatic updates and upgrades, meaning you never have to worry about applying a patch or keeping your system up to date.
