Easy to maintain corporate antivirus and antispyware

[eyeball]

Hi all,

what do you guys use as your company anti-virus and anti-spyware?

At the minute (and ever since version 6 and below) we are using E-Trust, and to be honest version 8 is rubbish, it has a web interface that crashes a lot and its not easy to manage,

the anti spyware gives you no indication whatsoever that it is even running! unless you look at it from the server, and even then a scan with spybot often picks up stuff that Etrust misses.

anyway can some of you guys tell me what you are currently using and how easy they are to use, setup and maintain?

thank you so much

NOD32 and VPN

Hi thanks for the quick reply, can you elaborate a little?

cheers

NOD32 is installed on every single pc in my company and all of them are connecting to the internet through VPN in a linux server that is running squid to block access to most ports. And also, most webpages are blocked too... We pay our workers to do their job, not wander on the internet

I don't have my own company but if I did, I would configure the network so malware couldn't get in in the first place as to not waste time on such programs. They're fine for home users where time isn't necessarily money, but not in a corporate environment. You'd also want to make an image file for all workstations to save even more time and money. If something did go wrong with an OS, you'd just restore it entirely within 5 minutes. That's what I do with Acronis True Image but I don't have to do it very often.

nitroshift,

When you last did a major upgrade say from Nod32 v2.6 to 2.7 were that any problems or issues on your corporate network?
