Today, Sophos announced six additional firewall appliances, meaning that Sophos customers and partners can now choose from 12 SG Series models. As with the existing models, each uses the latest Intel multi-core technology to provide optimal performance. The new appliances include four desktop models ideal for small office deployments and two new 2U models that utilize the fastest Intel Chips and deliver extensive redundancy and customization features.

This compared with 51 per cent of those with company laptops who could clarify their laptops were encrypted, highlighting the continued willingness to accept mobiles as a risk.

We believe Sophos leadership position in the security space is further highlighted as it combines data protection with mobile controls for organizations, enabling ever-growing numbers of BYOD employees to experience the productivity benefits without sacrificing organizational security. We further believe this broad security industry leadership is reinforced by Sophos' inclusion in the Leader quadrant of Gartner's August 7, 2014 Magic Quadrant for Unified Threat Management. Indeed, Sophos is the only vendor to appear as a Leader in three Gartner Magic Quadrants: MDP; Endpoint Protection published January 8, 2014 and UTM.
