Control Viruses Network-wide
With increased user mobility and more users accessing Internet services,
virus threats are increasing. Virus infiltration of your network can cause
expensive downtime and destroy valuable data. ManageWise detects viruses
and quarantines them so that they cannot spread across the network.
Comprehensive Scanning
ManageWise's virus protection feature incorporates sophisticated pattern -
based scanning, which identifies known viruses at the server and desktop.
It detects mutations of existing strains, polymorphic viruses and even
stealth viruses designed to hide from scanners. Unknown viruses may elude
pattern - based scanning, but the intelligent rules-based detection
capabilities of ManageWise identify virus-like behavior before a virus can
cause havoc on the system.
Continuous Real-Time Protection
Virus protection operates continuously in real time to protect servers,
desktops, portable and standalone PCs from virus infection. As files are
transferred to and from the server, it checks in real time to ensure they
are not infected. It also performs prescheduled and on-demand scanning
onservers. In addition, ManageWise scans users' workstations continuously
or at login to identify any viruses on the desktop. Virus protection for
mobile computer usersWith user mobility increasing and more users accessing
the Internet, virusthreats are increasing. Whenever mobile computer users
reconnect theirportable computers to the network, the ManageWise virus
protection featureautomatically checks for virus activity and updates the
server log as wellas the portable computer's virus pattern files.
Automated and Self-Maintaining
The virus protection in ManageWise includes an "automated download feature,
"which automatically logs into the Intel BBS and downloads the most current
virus pattern file. ManageWise also shares virus pattern file information
among multiple file servers. Both features save considerable amounts of
network administration time.
