How to protect the LAN ?
Protecting the LAN from viruses is very important. You can
protect your LAN by following some preventive measures. This
includes protecting the LAN file server, as well as the individual
workstations.
Step 1 : A Partition/Boot sector virus cannot infect the main
file server , as their logic does not permit them to do that
way. For the problem of file viruses , setting the file attributes
all the executables on the file server as READONLY, using the
network privileges can be helpful.
Step 2 : The SUPERVISOR should limit the individual users'
rights to change the file attributes of those files on the file
server.
Step 3 : For more security scan the file server for known
viruses, using Quick Heal at least once a day.
