Hi, this is Sophos SG330 spam configuration window: Spam Detection During SMTP Transaction and Spam Filter seems to me kind of unclear. Here is description from firewall help: 'You have the possibility to reject spam already during SMTP transaction. Sophos Email filtering antispam protection blocks 99% of unwanted email at the gateway and anti-spam engine catches the rest, including the latest phishing attacks and malicious attachments - quarantining where required. Live updates by SophosLabs power Sophos Email filtering, ensuring you’re protected from the thousands of new threats sent.
For the 11th time in the last 11 reports, Sophos has been named a Leader in the 2019 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Endpoint Protection Platforms.
What makes Sophos a Leader?
We believe our placement is driven by our strong endpoint protection, real-world endpoint detection and response (EDR) usability, as well as our unifying platform, Sophos Central. We believe Gartner recognized Sophos for our proven record at stopping ransomware, the deep learning technology that blocks never-seen-before malware, and our anti-exploit technology.
Summary
We believe being positioned as a leader in the Magic Quadrant for EPP 11 times in a row is a fantastic achievement for Sophos. As the endpoint protection marketplace changes, we continue to evolve as well, driven by our increased brand awareness in enterprise organizations and 3rd party test results. Additionally, as EDR has become more tightly integrated with endpoint protection, Sophos is leading the way with an EDR offering that adds expertise, without adding headcount.
We believe we will retain this positioning going forward thanks to our continued excellence in endpoint protection, industry leadership in artificial intelligence, massive growth and ongoing enhancements for our EDR offering, and our upcoming managed detection and response (MDR) launch.
