Sophos Makes Security Fun

Sophos, a world leader in IT security and data protection, often thinks ‘outside the box’ when it comes to keeping businesses and users well-informed on the latest network threats. In April of this year, we wrote about their “Threatsaurus”, an A-Z guide that defines and explains the various data and security threats on the web today in a simple, fun, easy-to-understand language. More recently, while browsing through their quarterly e-newsletter, ‘The Sophos Insider’, we came across another one of their innovative creations, Beat the Threat.

Beat the Threat is a fun (and somewhat addicting) online game that demonstrates how today’s web-based threats are constantly evolving and transmitting rapidly from user to user. The game ultimately shows that the rate at which current and emerging online threats spread can make it difficult for a business’ personnel to keep up with the rapid pace to fully protect their networks. It often takes the right combination of software solutions and network management to fully support and secure a network properly.

Using our Managed Services platform 3DProActive™ in conjunction with Sophos’ business-grade security software, 3D Corporation provides this ideal combination of network management and security solutions that match and often exceed the rapid pace at which network threats spread and evolve. In addition to providing businesses with reliable network management and support, 3D offers Sophos’ wide range of endpoint, encryption, email, web, and NAC security solutions that are easy to deploy, manage and use. As a Managed Services Provider and a Sophos Silver Partner, we can provide your business with the appropriate tools to keep your network safe and secure.
