virusscanner

Hello,

I wonder what is the best viruscanner to b used on a 64b win2008 server with
+/- 300 clients?

Regards,
N.

 

Hello nico,

There is no best, that's mostly a view from yourself. We use Sophos AntiVirus
for servers and clients.

Best regards

We use Symantec End Point Protection 11 MR4 with networks from 5 users
to 500 users, great product, so far we've never had a compromised
network, but the AV is only a small part of the solution.

Leythos,

Does Symantec have something for antivirus and the other threats s/a
malware, spyware & such?
I'm familiar with AV Corp version.

Thanks in advance.

Symantec End Point Protection for Servers and Workstations - seems to
grab most things if you install all of it.

As mentionted, there is no 'best' AV. I prefer McAfee Enterprise for my customers, more so because I'm familiar with it, and it has done a good job for my customers. It also has an antimalware component. There are many others out there with similar features, and are all competitively priced.

Leythos,

Thanks for the link.
I will look into it.
PC Connection had 4 versions (2- 5 user & 2- 10 user) but did not give
indication what was different.
Will figure it out when I get back the end of the week.

I use CDW.com for all my orders, at least most of them. I call my rep
and say I need Symantec End Point Protection for Servers and
Workstations, version 11, and how many licenses, and he sends me a
quote.

Make sure you DOWNLOAD the latest MR version.
