Viruses and Worms are a class of attack whereby an infected attachment or download causes damage to a host system or network. The damage can range from minor (client DoS attack) to catastrophic (such as corruption of critical information or system registries). A critical trend that is resulting from the increased sophistication of Viruses is the rapidly decreasing "window of infection". In July of 2001, it took the Code Red Virus just under 6 hours to infect 359,000 clients. Just eighteen months later, the Slammer Worm infected 75,000 clients in under 30 minutes. The threats are real… and spread fast.
Protect your organization from costly network outages caused by Viruses, Worms and Trojans before they enter the network. Gateway Anti-Virus is a critical element of complete network and application protection. Both outbound and inbound traffic is scanned to stop infected content from entering or leaving your network. Gateway Anti-Virus implemented with Desktop Anti-Virus gives your network layered protection required to combat both internal and external threats. Automatic signature updates are mandatory to ensure protection from the latest threats without administrators or users performing the updates manually.
