Sophos Intercept X is the Security Innovation of the year

The praise for Intercept X and its next-gen anti-ransomware, anti-exploit capabilities keeps rolling in. The winners in Computing’s Security Excellence Awards were announced, and Intercept X took home the award for Security Innovation of the Year. Taking place on November 23 in the heart of London, the ceremony, which is hosted by UK-based tech magazine Computing as part of their annual Enterprise Security & Risk Management Summit, celebrates the industry’s best security companies, solutions, products and personalities across 20 categories. The Innovation of the Year category was incredibly competitive this year, with 13 vendors nominated it was certainly the most highly sought-after honor at the event. “We were really pleased that Intercept X was shortlisted for Security Innovation of the Year, and Computing put on another great award ceremony in London,” said SophosLabs Distinguished Engineer Andy Thomas. “There certainly were a good number of other Next Gen vendors present, however Intercept X won the day – having proven very successful with its anti-exploit and anti-ransomware technology. Industry recognition is both amazing and gratifying”
