========================= VirusNet Features =========================
Multi-Platform Support
----------------------
VirusNet is shipped with Windows 95, Windows 3.x and DOS versions.
It is compabible with DOS, network, NTFS and HPFS drives. VirusNet
supports all major networks including Netware, NT Advanced Server,
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.
Background Monitor
------------------
Powerful real-time protection is provided for PCs running
Windows 95, Windows 3.x and DOS. The background monitor
automatically detects viruses before diskettes are accessed and
files are run. This provides a strong defense against viruses
transmitted from diskettes, a local area network and the Internet.
Spectrum Scanning
-----------------
The VirusNet scanner can be run automatically at predefined
intervals when Windows starts, or after a period of system
inactivity.
Macro Virus Removal
-------------------
VirusNet includes the powerful VNmacro(tm) program to detect
and remove MS-Windows macro viruses. Its top-rated protection
does not just deactivate macro viruses, but actually restores
files back to their original uninfected state.
Disaster Recovery
-----------------
If a PC 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!
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.
