avast! Business Protection
Core protection
Antivirus and anti-spyware engine - Innovative scanning engine protects against viruses, spyware, and other malicious agents.
Real-time anti-rootkit protection - Prevents stealth malware (‘rootkits’) that, when loaded by the computer’s OS, are invisible to ordinary scanners.
avast! Community IQ - Provides the best, most up-to-date signature-based detection, because the global avast! user community provides samples of new viruses.
avast! WebRep - Provides website reliability and/or reputation ratings according to community-provided feedback.
Behavior Shield - Stops ‘zero-day’ threats and unknown malware before virus definitions have been obtained.
Web Shield - Detects streaming web content better, via high-performance tuning.
avast! SafeZone - Opens a new (clean) desktop so that other applications don’t see what’s happening – perfect for banking, secure ordering/shopping – and leaves no traces once it’s closed.
AutoSandbox - Prompts users to run suspicious applications in the virtual Sandbox environment.
avast! Sandbox - Provides an extra layer of security for you to run your PC workstation and its applications in a virtual environment – where any attacks are thus targeted (instead of your real PC).
Server
Integrated protection for both email and file servers - Includes high-performance scanning, superior scalability, and support for clustering (even in active-active mode), and integrates perfectly with Exchange via Microsoft's own Virus Scanning APIs.
SharePoint Server plugin - Tightly integrates with SharePoint 2003/2007/2010 Servers via Microsoft's own AV interfaces.
Low resource usage - Stays light on system resources, to reserve server resources for your business needs.
Management console
Web-based console - Comfortable dashboard lists all current problems, recommended solutions, and other actions. Accessible from everywhere via web browser, so additional applications are not needed to manage your network.
Remote installation and updates - Saves both time and costs associated with traditional deployment at individual end points. Full network administration is unnecessary for operation.
Auto-discovery of new/unprotected (or ‘rogue’) PCs - Notifies you when potentially unprotected/harmful PCs connect to your company network.
Ability to schedule/run scanning jobs - Schedule scanning at night or on weekends (whenever PCs are not needed).
Comprehensive reporting - Set your own parameters for what information gets reported and how often.
Real-time alerts - In case of infection or other undesirable activities, the central console receives immediate real-time alerts.
