Features
Integrated protection from viruses and malicious code
The program detects and blocks all types of malicious programs in incoming HTTP and FTP traffic on the Microsoft ISA Server. Furthermore, the solution offers support for antivirus scanning in over 1,800 formats for archived and compressed files.
Identification of potentially dangerous programs.
Using the extended collection of antivirus databases, the solution provides protection not only from viruses, but also from potentially hostile programs. Such programs may, for example, launch unwanted advertising, collect data from the computer, covertly dial paid numbers, spy on and even remotely administer the computer.
Advanced technologies.
Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Microsoft ISA Server 2004 Enterprise Edition combines the most advanced technologies to protect computers from viruses and malicious code. Indeed, results from independent tests confirm that the Kaspersky Anti-Virus Engine provides one of the highest detection rates for malicious programs.
Protection for server arrays
Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Microsoft ISA Server 2004 Enterprise Edition provides the highest quality of protection for Microsoft ISA servers working in the Array Member mode. Saving antivirus settings in the ISA configuration server minimizes the workload for administrators, making it possible to manage all servers as a single entity. The program provides centralized configuration of protection for all servers in the array, as well as centralized updates to the antivirus databases.
Additional scanning parameters
The administrator can configure the scanning parameters that best suit the demands of the organization.
Creating lists of servers.
It is possible to compile a list of trusted servers, so that data from these servers will not be scanned.
Excluding objects from scanning.
Certain types of objects can be excluded from antivirus scanning (such as graphic files, for example) to reduce the load on the server.
Creating user groups.
The solution allows administrators to create user groups with individual scanning rules.
Optimized performance
Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Microsoft ISA Server 2004 is a completely scalable application that offers the high performance necessary to cope with servers carrying heavy loads.
Launch of multiple copies of the antivirus engine.
Multiple copies of the antivirus engine can be launched simultaneously. It is also possible to create reserve copies of the antivirus engine for scanning fast objects – that is, text files, graphic files under 2 MB and other types of files under 256 KB.
Optimization technologies streamline the program’s operation and greatly reduce the number of scan processes that need to be launched.
Administration
Remote administration.
The administrator can configure all parameters via the Microsoft Management Console, which is installed on the server itself or on a workstation.
