SAV for Mac HE is for home ONLY

We introduced Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac Home Edition due to the lack of high performance consumer Mac AV products on the market.  While Sophos delivers protection for businesses, all business users are personal users and protecting their Macs at home is just as important. 

Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac Home Edition is designed exclusively for home use.  Use of the software on computers owned or managed by an organization is prohibited.  This includes educational institutions and not for profit organizations requiring or recommending anti-malware protection for computers accessing their networks. Organizations needing anti-malware protection will benefit from all-in-one malware and data protection delivered in Sophos Endpoint Security and Control, including:

  • Cross-platform anti-virus protection
  • Simplified, centralized management
  • Control of applications, devices and network access
  • Integrated DLP and encryption
  • Centrally managed client firewall
  • 24x7 expert support

Sophos values our position as the only vendor 100% focused on delivering security to businesses and organizations, and we offer special pricing for non-profit and educational institutions. For more information on Endpoint Security and Control contact us.

Best regards,

  • The well-known academic lamentation  - no insult or offence meant (I know how it is to bargain for academic discounts ... :smileywink:)

    I think in your case This includes educational institutions and not for profit organizations requiring or recommending anti-malware protection for computers accessing their networks applies and I would interpret it as: If your institution won't provide you with a decent computer so you have to bring in your own and they don't give a **bleep**  care at all about protection then it might be acceptable use. In this case use your judgement and conscience.
