Case study: Fujitsu Asia

When Fujitsu Asia saw a massive increase in spam and malware-infected emails, the company decided to find a software solution. Sophos PureMessage for UNIX was selected after a rigorous evaluation against McAfee and Trend Micro, and now protects Fujitsu Asia from daily spam and malware threats at the gateway and server level.

"We were impressed by Sophos PureMessage's ability to integrate both gateway and messaging security without the need to install two separate products. This simplified installation to a large extent at our end."
