Sophos Anti-Virus Software

image of the Sophos icon

Sophos Anti-Virus software is the campus standard in computer virus protection. This software is installed on all campus computers, including student labs, office computers, and library stations. We administer updates and virus reporting from one central location and the latest virus defense information is distributed to each computer within hours of being made available to the public.

CCRI has negotiated an agreement with Sophos to license Sophos Anti-Virus products for CCRI faculty, and staff. The license agreement is valid through March 2011 and provides the right to install the software on:

  • CCRI owned computer systems
  • Personally owned computer of current full-time CCRI faculty and staff

Note: There can only be one anti-virus program installed on your computer at a time.
If you currently have another anti-virus program installed on your computer, and wish to use Sophos as your anti-virus program, you must completely uninstall the other anti-virus program before attempting to install Sophos.
