| Description | Proactive technologies. The proactive components in the product deliver protection from threats that have not yet been catalogued in signature databases. All processes launched in the system are analyzed to warn users of possible threats, roll back unwanted changes and restore damaged data. Security for file systems. Files are scanned for malicious content the moment they are created, launched or changed. Secure communication via email. Mail traffic is scanned at the level of the data transfer protocol (that is, POP3, IMAP, MAPI and NNTP for incoming traffic and SMTP for outgoing traffic, as well as SSL connections). The application is compatible with the most common mail programs. Safety online. SafeStream enables the program to scan HTTP traffic in real time, using a signature database that is pared down to include only the most dangerous threats to Internet users at the time of scanning. Protection from hacker attacks. A new generation firewall together with IDS and IPS systems and predefined rules for more than 250 of the most commonly used applications safeguard users working on any type of network, including WiFi networks. Protection from phishing and spam attacks. The program identifies and disables links to phishing sites in the Internet browser and rebuffs emails from phishers. Filtration based on formal attributes and a self-training Bayes algorithm ensure high-quality spam prevention. Intelligent technologies. The first time on-demand scanning is launched all objects are automatically scanned. However, for subsequent scans iSwift and iChecker technologies limit scanning to new and modified files only. Resource management. During periods of increased user activity, the antivirus solution switches to background mode to reduce its demand on system resources, so that they can be used by more high-priority applications. Compact updates. Smaller updates than ever before are achieved thanks to new technologies for incremental updating. On average, updates are only several tens of kilobytes in size. Centralized administration. Installing the solution on workstations, configuring protection parameters, managing updates to signature databases and program modules and responding effectively to potentially threatening events all these as well as other administrative tasks can be carried out centrally and remotely using Kaspersky Administration Kit 6.0. Choice of installation methods. Any method for centralized software installation can be used, as long as it supports distributives in the MSI format (including via Active Directory). Configuration options. The administrator can use the security policies and tasks in the program to configure protection parameters for groups of workstations or for individual workstations, receive notifications of events on the network, install license keys, etc. Notifications. The system administrator receives notifications of certain types of events (such as the detection of a virus). Duplicate copies of notifications can be sent via email and NetSend. Graphic reports. Reports provide information about the status of antivirus protection and the programs operation over specific time periods. There are different types of reports, which can be customized to contain the required level of detail. Automatic updating. Updates to antivirus databases and program modules are available on demand or automatically according to a schedule. Updates can either be downloaded directly from Kaspersky Lab servers on the Internet or from local servers on the network. |
