Datasheet

• COMMON DISTRIBUTION AND UPDATING MECHANISM via the Symantec System Center™ man-
agement console enables centralized deployment of virus definitions and product updates to
multi-platform workstations and network servers, reducing overhead and management of virus
protection updates across the enterprise.
• THREAT TRACER identifies the source of blended threat attacks, such as Code Red and Nimda,
which spread via open file shares.
•MOVE CLIENTS BETWEEN SERVERS The central management console can now drag-and-drop
clients from one physical parent server to another.
•LOGICAL GROUP MANAGEMENT Administrators can create and manage logical groupings of
clients and servers within server groups, or multiple logical groups from a single parent server.
This is especially useful for organizations that need to handle similar functional entities (such
as departments or business units) in the same way, reducing the infrastructure cost.
• PRODUCT PATCHING allows administrators to quickly deploy bug security fixes and new ver-
sions at minimal cost.
•STORE AND FORWARD EVENT DATA enables the client to store event data if it cannot connect
to the management server. The data is forwarded to the management server the next time
the client connects, to ensure that critical event data is always available for alerting, logging
and reporting.*
•EASE OF MIGRATION Installation tool checks for legacy versions of Norton AntiVirus™
Corporate Edition 7.x and above. If found, the install will retain the user settings, remove
the previous technology from the client or server, and install the new solution.
•SECURITY SOFTWARE UNINSTALLER minimizes the cost of switching from a third-party
antivirus product to Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition.
•SILENT OR INACTIVE INSTALL OPTIONS for installation flexibility to client machines for behind
the scenes (in silent mode), or full user interaction.
• LIMITED OR FULL USER INTERFACE with password protection allows the administrator to deter-
mine if a user will be granted full or limited access to the user interface.
√ Award-winning virus protection
Award-winning Symantec antivirus technologies detect and protect against viruses, worms, and
Trojan horses in all major file types, including mobile code and compressed file formats. A reduced
virus definition file size and multi-threaded server rollout speed update distribution, and growing
traffic volumes are accommodated with automatic load balancing across multiple servers, to
ensure highly scalable virus protection.
• EXPANDED THREAT DETECTION AND THREAT CATEGORIZATION extends the ability to
detect both viral and non-viral threats. Expanded threat detection recognizes unauthorized
programs that can compromise the security of the system (e.g., viruses, worms, and Trojans), the
privacy of client data (e.g., spyware, trackware, and adware), or that can be used with malicious
intent (e.g., dialers, joke programs, remote access and hack tools).
