Sophos Expands Cloud-Based Management Platform with Sophos Email

Sophos Email offers advanced security for cloud-based business email applications such as Microsoft Office 365, Microsoft Exchange 2013, and Google Apps for Work.

Network and endpoint security solutions provider Sophos has announced the addition of Sophos Email to its cloud-based Sophos Central management platform, enabling users to manage their email protection solution alongside Sophos endpoint, mobile, web and wireless security products from a unified console.

According to a recent survey conducted by Sophos, businesses are shifting to cloud-based email for both infrastructure and security services, with 38 percent using it as their primary email platform and 43 per cent using a cloud-based service for email security. Ransomware, malicious attachments, malicious URLs, viruses, and phishing were considered the top five threats with more than 50 percent of all respondents being very concerned about these.

“Email is still the delivery mechanism of choice for cybercriminals targeting businesses with all types of threats. We hear that phishing, ransomware and even spam are regularly getting past the protection built into the popular cloud email services” says Bryan Barney, senior vice president and general manager of the Network Security Group at Sophos. “Channel partners and IT departments need specialized security solutions as they fear email system vendors are unable to keep up with the dynamic threat landscape. Security provided within cloud-based email packages is just not enough for businesses who have a genuine challenge in preventing malicious and suspicious email content from entering their network.”

Sophos Email is a cloud-based secure email gateway built to boost and simplify email security for businesses. It incorporates the company’s threat protection engine and additional advanced email-specific protection technologies, such as context-specific heuristics (CXMail) built and maintained by SophosLabs. The CXMail family of detection strategies are designed to stop threats like ransomware that are predominately distributed using email. Sophos Email is managed from Sophos Central where the dashboard allows partners and MSPs to control and configure settings, distribute licenses, add new customers, and more.
