It puts them in a protected environment where they can get cleaned up on-line without serious risk of re-infection. They can pop their e-mail, reply via webmail, but they can't connect to anywhere except a list of update sites.
there was little in the way of 'how' in the link above though :(
Well, it's very much dependant on your own network.
From what I know (from presentations of the folk behind Qnet, and
talks with people actually using it) is that they have a sort of "export" module, which allows you to either output the IP's, or parse them such that you get a crafted DHCP entry, or special MAC address based "alternate VLAN" statement for on a switch etc. They have templates for a bunch of things, but whether or not one of those templates is applicable or even useful in your own network remains te be seen each and every time. The main strength of Qnet is the detection, and even better, the way of allowing people to clean themselves, and then get back on the net. Having a helpdesk tell (different) people the same line over and over again gets tedious. Putting the effort into making a nice explanatory webpage get so much more "return on investment"... ;) Kind regards, JP Velders
