McAfee® Managed VirusScan

McAfee® Managed VirusScan

McAfee® Managed VirusScan, the new brand for VirusScan ASaP, is always on, automatic virus protection for desktops and servers. With its automated virus updates and visibility reports, McAfee Managed VirusScan reduces a small business' IT workload and spending costs while automating company's virus protection headache. Small businesses are freed from the maintenance and upkeep costs that account for 80 percent of the total cost of anti-virus ownership.

Automatic Distribution of Virus Updates
Utilizing the peer-to-peer of McAfee Rumor technology, Managed VirusScan quickly and transparently provides anti-virus updates multiple times a day across the entire desktop and server architecture, without IT assistance. Completely transparent to your IT team and end users, Managed VirusScan monitors all systems, and distributes virus and new product updates automatically and transparently so you won't have to manage updates again.

Spyware/Adware Detection
Enhance the privacy of your business' computing experience by keeping your systems free of the top 200 unwanted applications that may be watching, recording and externally transmitting sensitive company information.

Enhanced Outbreak Response
During a medium or high-risk virus outbreak, virus updates are automatically applied to your desktops and file servers and transparently distributed to your users within one hour of a virus definition posting for immediate protection.

Web-based Reporting and Rules Administration
Configure anti-virus policies (schedule on-demand scan, schedule update intervals options) to customize your protection efficiencies. Rules administration can help keep your business protected against new threats - keeping pace with ever-changing technology and offering you the best protection available. While the Managed VirusScan Web-based reports detail company wide protection information such as coverage status summary, desktops updated, and viruses cleaned, deleted, and quarantined.

Hassle-free Online Deployment
With three easy methods for deployment: common, silent, and push, Managed VirusScan allows your business to be up and running and protected in minutes. And with a small installation size, Managed VirusScan won't overwhelm your system bandwidth.

Internet Independent Updating
Managed VirusScan simplifies dial-up updates by automatically checking for updates every time a dial-up connection is made to the network. And even those systems that don't have Internet access can still receive updated protection through peer-to-peer sharing technology.
