PC ScanMaster 1.01 for NetWare By NetPro Computing, Inc.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Complete Virus Defense Management for NetWare
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary:
PC ScanMaster is a workstation scan manager which enables the simple and
complete automation of virus scanning on all your NetWare PCs. Using the
industries leading Virus detection software from McAfee Associates.
Note: NetPro also produces PC and file server scan managers for VINES,
and is a leading McAfee Agent so NetPro can provide you a great
deal on a complete Virus Defense Management System for most any LAN!
Automates a Comprehensive Virus Scanning Process
-------------------------------------------------
The most effective insurance against a serious virus attack on your
network is a regular scan of all networked PC's and file servers. In the
past assuring that scans are performed regularly, has been a difficult and
labor intensive task. Now, PC ScanMaster combined with McAfee's
ViruScan and NetShield NLM, offers an automated, comprehensive solution
to detecting, containing and destroying viruses on NetWare.
Minimizes Impact on User and Administrator Productivity
-------------------------------------------------------
The entire scanning process is simple to set up and use by virtually
anyone - even computer novices.
PC ScanMaster works unobtrusively by checking how long it's been since a
user has scanned his or her PC. There's no need for your users to
remember when or how to check their disks. It's simple: every time a
user logs into the network, a batch process is called from the users
home directory, which in turn calls the PC ScanMaster program.
Customizable settings allow you to configure how often scanning is
required.
Logs Scan Activity and Results for Audit and Clean-Up efforts
--------------------------------------------------------------
The program creates a database for each server where PC ScanMaster is
installed. The database contains the NIC address and name of each user,
the last time each machine was scanned, and the result of that scan.
If the allotted time has expired since the last scan, McAfee's ViruScan
is automatically executed. All local drives are scanned, including any
removable media with the disk inserted.
If the user is within the 'grace' period set by the administrator, he or
she may elect to abort the scan and proceed with their login. However,
the database will record the abort. This feature creates a report
describing the details of every user's faithfulness at following
policy.
Allows you to Enforce Periodic Scanning
---------------------------------------
If the user's time period has not expired, he or she can freely log in.
If the total of grace time and set time has expired, the user is blocked
from logging in until a complete scan is performed.
Locks infected PC's out of the Network
--------------------------------------
When PC ScanMaster finds a virus on a PC the user is logged out of the
network immediately and the administrator is notified. The PC cannot be
logged back into the network until all virus's have been removed and a
complete scan has found it clean.
Minimizes Exposure with Immediate Notice when a Virus is Found
--------------------------------------------------------------
In addition to providing a report, the program can send a 25th line
message to up to 20 different users upon finding a virus. This allows
the administrator to localize the virus on a hard drive and quarantine
that user before the virus spreads
Simple Easy Licensing
---------------------
PC ScanMaster is site licensed on a 2 year basis similar to that
of McAfee's ViruScan. With this licensing you don't have to worry
about what servers or PCs are licensed, you simply license the number
of users at your site and put it on any server you want. We provide
updates on a regular basis to keep up with the changes in the McAfee
and network products we work with, new features are also added
periodically to make your network more secure and easier to administrate.
