Comprehensive virus protection for workstations and network servers enterprise-wide

Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition provides scalable, cross-platform virus protection for workstations and network servers throughout the enterprise. Enhanced security features plus centralized policy management enable administrators to manage client and server groupings logically. In addition, administrators can create, deploy, and lock down security policies and settings to keep systems up-to-date and properly configured at all times. The centralized management console enables administrators to audit the network and identify which nodes are unprotected, and determine which nodes are protected by Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition, or Computer Associates, McAfee, Panda, Sophos, or Trend Micro antivirus products. This function allows administrators to proactively secure unprotected nodes before an event can occur, ensuring system uptime and user productivity.

Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition provides backend response mechanisms that enable the delivery of fast, reliable, and hands-free virus detection, analysis, and repairs. Even in the face of unusually heavy demand for virus definitions during serious outbreaks, Symantec's scalable architecture ensures that virus cures will be readily available when needed most. Infected clients and network servers are cleaned quickly and efficiently via on-demand, enterprise-wide virus sweeps initiated from a centralized console. NAVEX™, a single, extensible scanning and repair engine, provides the unique ability to update virus definitions and engine extensions—without having to reboot servers or re-deploy application software, thereby easing management and minimizing the cost of ownership. To enhance speed, the solution includes reduced virus definition file sizes and multi-threaded server rollout. And for extra security, LiveUpdate™ technology enables administrators to configure automatic updates for virus definitions, including updates for out-of-date definitions.

Symantec's award-winning solution is compatible with Windows® Server 2003, Netware® Secure Console platforms, and 64-bit Intel® Itanium™ II hardware, enabling uninterrupted protection as businesses migrate to the latest technology. And, like all Symantec security products, Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition is supported by Symantec Security Response, the world's leading Internet security research and support organization.
