One of our Sage 300 customers received an e-mail about adding "Sage Security Shield". I could only find that for Sage 50 on-line. There are some pages on the Sage website. Does anyone know what this is and why?

I had a Sage 100 customer forward me the same email.  As you mentioned when I went t to the web site it looks like a Sage 50 add on.  Sage needs to review the marketing email lists.

Thanks, Doug. That confirms it is nothing for us to be concerned with.

I also looked it up and told my clients to ignore it.

Looks like a Sage rebranding of a 3rd party product called SONTIQ.

Look at the "powered by" branding in the top right of the PDF.
