Business challenge

  • During the rollout of a major e-commerce project the IT team has to ensure that the sensitive data on its 350 Windows® XP desktops and laptops, plus its Windows 2003 file servers, remain protected.
  • The organization’s large and widely dispersed staff need to remain fully aware of the threats that face the company's country-wide IT infrastructure.

Technology solution

  • CVGT implemented Sophos Endpoint Security and Control across its network and also integrated SAV Interface with its email gateway.
  • Endpoint Security and Control is managed through Sophos Enterprise Console™ which makes managing the threat environment straightforward.
  • SAV Interface enhanced CVGT’s protection by using the Sophos virus detection engine to scan incoming and outgoing email for malicious attachments and code.

Business results

  • The IT management team is able to concentrate on rolling out its projects without having to worry about the security of the network or performing unscheduled administration.
  • To date, CVGT has experienced no virus outbreaks for almost four years.
