Sophos Antivirus

As a member of FUAS, both as a student and member of staff, you can protect your device with a campus licence of the virus scanner Sophos Antivirus.

Our Sophos Antivirus campus licence covers all of FUAS’ workstations and server systems but it also includes the private computers of our members of staff and students. No additional costs will arise for you.

The installation packages include the current state of the software as of the time they are provided. Once the software has been installed, virus identification files and the software version will be kept up to date via the internal update programme (Sophos Autoupdate).

Supported platforms

One reason we chose Sophos Antivirus was the extensive platform support. Please check the Sophos Antivirus website for a list of operating systems included in the support.
