======================= VirusNet Eval Version =======================
This is the evaluation version of VirusNet, a complete
anti-virus and disaster recovery system from Safetynet, Inc.
VirusNet detects known and unknown viruses. It's disaster
recovery feature can revive workstations that fail to boot.
This eval is identical to the retail PC version except that:
* "For Evaluation Only" is displayed on several screens.
You may use this demo for evaluation purposes only.
We are currently recruiting dealers, OEMs and international resellers.
If you are interested, please contact us at the address below.
========================= VirusNet Features =========================
Multi-Platform Support
----------------------
VirusNet is shipped with identical DOS and Windows versions and
is compabible with DOS, network, and OS/2 HPFS drives. VirusNet
supports all major networks including Netware, Vines, LAN Manager,
LAN Server, Pathworks, and Windows for Workgroups.
Known Virus Detection
---------------------
The VirusNet Secure scan recently received outstanding
detection scores of 99.2% in the Lambdin test and 96% in the
VSUM test. Dual signatures allow it to accurately detect viruses
without producing false alarms. Advanced algorithms are used to
detect mutation, stealth and polymorphic viruses.
Unknown Virus Detection
-----------------------
VirusNet uses heuristic and checksum scanning to detect unknown
viruses. Its heuristic scanner can detect unknown viruses by
determining if a program contains suspicious or destructive code. It
is highly effective at detecting new viruses.
Checksum scanning is used to detect changes in program files and
boot tracks. It is highly effective at detecting new viruses. An
Exclude Files option eliminates false alarms.
Real-Time Virus Detection
-------------------------
The VIRSTOP program continuously prevents infected files from being
run or copied. It can also detect boot track viruses. VIRSTOP
should be loaded on each workstation either during bootup or after
network login. By using the /DISK switch, only 3K of memory overhead
is required. On systems that support it, VIRSTOP can be completely
loaded into upper memory.
Disaster Recovery
-----------------
If a PC's hard disk becomes corrupted, or its CMOS battery fails,
the Rescue Disk feature can quickly revive the PC. Rescue Disk
maintains each workstation's boot track, CMOS, and partition table.
This information can be stored for all PCs in a central database
on the network or on a floppy diskette. When a workstation fails
to boot, use Rescue Disk to restore the workstation in seconds!
Scheduled Scanning
------------------
The VirusNet scanner can be run automatically at predefined
intervals when the PC boots up or logs into the network. Virus
scans can be scheduled on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis using
the DO-ONCE scheduler.
VirusNet LAN Features
---------------------
VirusNet LAN includes Safetynet's LAN Scheduler & Distribution
system (LANSD). LANSD provides network control over workstation
scanning and software updates. Scans can be performed during
workstation bootup, network login, or in the background from Windows.
Events such as tape backups and modem transfers can also be
scheduled. Software distribution for up to 100 programs and 100,000
files is provided. LANSD installs itself to each workstation and
automatically makes changes to each AUTOEXEC.BAT and WIN.INI file as
required.
