Antivirus
Use layered scanning engines to stop viruses.
Deflect damaging and malicious content at the gateway using dual, individual virus engines that operate in parallel. This allows content to be scanned and blocked before it has a chance to enter the network and test the defenses of the workstations and servers directly, greatly reducing the chance of infection.
Description & Screenshots
Viruses remain a problem even with the latest in desktop defense. By stopping malicious content before it enters or leaves the network, administrators can prevent viruses from draining productivity, damaging data on servers and workstations, and causing embarrassment to the company from infected machines spreading the virus to business contacts or visitor’s to your site.
Astaro’s dual-scanning system allows for files, messages, and website objects to be scanned twice with different engines, increasing effectiveness vs. a single scanner. All companies have varying response times to the latest threats, and even a period of a few minutes of ineffective pattern awareness can cause serious damage to your network. By having parallel scanners, this risk is further reduced.
Protected by Astaro Antivirus, all the objects which travel both to and from your web and application servers are scanned in real-time for infection. Visitors will not be able to upload infected content, and your servers are protected from being exploited to hand out malicious files and infected materials to your customers.
