Come on Jason, each manufacturer has his own "independent benchmark" as we all know (on the one you mention, Av-Comparatives, appear several "mistakes" a mention to MS tools already disappeared or Symantec/Norton domestic/home versions, not the Corporate one's... so which comparison is this? Apples vs flowers?) the ! Ask each for one and you'll have it accordingly to his own interest! What I think it must provide is, I mean in terms of Corporate AntiMalware: 1. Easy to manage 2. Easy to deploy 3. Effectiveness against new threads 4. Time to solve new REAL threads 5. Support 6. Support when shit appears 7. Real Support, no matter -at least- what it takes, you need a service security level, isn't it? And at last, but not least: which services will you be receiving from your local supplier/VAR/reseller? With new threads having an updated/managed AV is not enough as Confiker probes; I mean It was necessarily to have also an specific MS Hot Fix installed, and also a drive config addition was required (autorun.inf folder on each accessing drives) in order to be safe... so solution scope were more complex, reason why those services or value added services MUST be placed on deciding which AV/AntiMalware choice... In some cases, with real customers, we use, in order to eradicate Confiker a mix of Kaspersky, NOD32 and Symantec EndPoint Protection (Ver 11 SR4) as base platform... but also vulnerability remediation tools (Retina, Nessus) and local manual procedures...

It doesn't matter how good of a management console you have, if the anti-virus can't catch viruses. :-) Av-Comparatives has recently released its annual comparison in May, located here: http://www.av-comparatives.org/images/stories/test/ondret/avc_report22.pdf Virus-Bulletin also has its own comparatives, which get awarded its VB100 award, located here: http://www.virusbtn.com/vb100/archive/results?display=summary (Free registration is required to view) Based on our research, we selected Eset NOD32 as our Anti-virus, and use their remote administrator server and console. However, their remote administrator server still has some bugs and requires some polish.

It is all centralized and can be incorporated into AD deployments fairly easily. It also has a central console that allows you to view the hostnames/IPs of the devices that have a malware infection, real-time updates, and SMS/E-mail alerts depending on how you set the console up. We have about 3500 hosts and this is an extremely manageable system for us. My 2c. Have a great day! ~A On 7/14/2009, "Kurt Buff" <kurt.buff () gmail com> wrote:

I mean systems that consist in a server with a management console and agents in the clients, which provide easy deployment and maintenance. I remember one product of McAfee (I can't remember the name right now), similar to "ePolicy Orchestrator Console". That software allowed to install agents in PC clients through the AD-based domain. I'm looking for products like that. TIA cheers RamiroHopefully you're looking for something better than ePO. Heh. We use, and like a lot, the Sunbelt Software solution - VIPRE Enterprise - at $WORK. Moved away from McAfee. Trend and several others also have similar solutions, including, IIRC, Kaspersky and Norman and even (ptui) Symantec. Perhaps AVG does also, but I'm not at all current on their offerings.
