Email Virus Scan POWERED BY
SYMANTEC ANTI-VIRUS TECHNOLOGY
Protecting your Computer against computer
viruses is no longer on option
There is hardly an Internet user in the world
that hasn’t experienced the unfortunate consequences
of a virus, worm or Trojan Horse. Infection rates among users
worldwide have been steadily increasing. Email is the number-one
way by which these online threats multiply. Protecting email
with anti-virus technology will save you time, money
and resources by ensuring that data and hardware
will be safe from destruction.
The virus problem isn’t getting
better, it’s only getting worse.
According to a recent survey published by ICSA
labs:
(Source: ICSA Labs 7th Annual Virus Prevalence Survey)
- Every month for the last six years, the number of viruses
encountered increased by approximately 2% per month.
- In 2001, there were 113 virus encounters per month for
every 1,000 PCs.
- 83% of all virus attacks have transmitted via email
And, according to statistics by a top anti-virus software
vendor:
“While email gateways are closest to the necessary
coverage, companies are still lagging in adopting [adequate]
protection at the Internet perimeter.”
- 1% of viruses encountered came from diskettes
- 83% of all viruses are spread by email
Experts insist that protecting against email viruses should
be a high priority for (anyone) with email access.
Further, email virus protection completes the required multi-layered
defense against virus invasion.
“Perimeter protection is quite possibly the
best protection for corporate assets.”
- The cost of infection by computer viruses and malicious
code is huge
- Defending your computer with desktop software as the sole
protection is close to useless – you are fighting
the Internet
- You must shield your vital data at the perimeter by scanning
email for viruses
Email Virus Scan significantly reduces the chance
of sending or receiving a virus by email. Here’s how:
- Symantec’s NAVEX™ engines deploy near real-time
virus definitions to update virus threats;
- Bloodhound™ artificial intelligence intelligently
scans all email to identify known and unknown malicious
code;
- Email Virus Scan replaces threatening code and infected
attachments with a text file notification indicating a problem.
Symantec’s anti-virus architecture is dominant
compared to the competition
- Unique anti-virus architecture enables Symantec to send
out compact NAVEX™ engine updates instead of full
software updates.
- This approach makes it far faster and easier for us to
receive updates from Symantec and implement them into our
email servers
