Introducing the wonderful new Sophos technology "Intercept-x": use case wouldn't u use antivirus/internet security suite? If it came down to Sophos vs McAfee as the only 2 choices, Sophos would lose :D Trust me, I'd rather use Bitdefender or Comodo. It is ineffective, poorly thrown together and the closest thing to a fake AV in the market today (remember when there was a big splash about the NHS "protected by Sophos" and then all their computers got infected?). I've had occasion to delve into the inner workings of Sophos quite a bit. Also, it was laughable when their wonderful new "Anti-Ransomware" add-on came out (paid, of course) which used a lesser known program they bought and hastily integrated with their AV and gave it a fancy name "Intercept-X". ![]() Sophos kept pushing me to do workaround after workaround and refused to refer it to their dev team to fix the issue. Every time it zipped the file, Sophos would immediately flag it and lock the file before the backup program could make a copy of it. ![]() The program used an off-the-shelf component to zip up files for backups. I once had a support ticket going with them for 8 MONTHS for a false positive in medical software.
