ServerProtect for Microsoft Windows/Novell NetWare
Prevent viruses from spreading through your network by blocking them before they reach the end user. Trend Micro ServerProtect for Microsoft Windows and Novell NetWare scans, detects and removes virus from files and compressed files in real time. ServerProtect delivers 24x7 antivirus support and protection with automatic, incremental virus updates. Centralised management of servers via a Web-based console simplifies network protection.
ServerProtect works closely with core Microsoft technologies to protect enterprise-level networks supporting Windows Server 2003. It performs kernel-level scanning for viruses and malicious code via Microsoft APIs to minimise performance degradation, and uses a multi-threaded scan engine to enhance the speed of scanning files and minimise the impact to the server.
ServerProtect displays the virus and system events of servers in a central log file, which can be exported to other applications for further analysis. ServerProtect notifies predefined recipients of virus outbreaks and program events. Administrators can send notifications in multiple ways - via message box, pager, printer, Internet email, SNMP trap, or Windows event log.
ServerProtect employs a three-tier architecture: the Management Console, the Information Server, and the Normal Server. A Normal Server can be any server on the network on which ServerProtect is installed-for example, a file server or FTP server. The Management Console is used to configure dedicated Information Servers, which then control the Normal Servers.
ServerProtect can be configured to download virus pattern files and scan engine updates automatically and hen distribute them to designated servers. It uses an incremental update mechanism so that the designated servers only download the new virus pattern files that have been added since the last version, saving download time and preserving network bandwidth.
Key Features
Centralised Management and Reporting.
ServerProtect provides centralised management of multiple servers in one site from a Windows-based console. The console enables administrators to deploy programs and updates to servers simultaneously and monitor server status in real time. Administrators can also use a Web-based console with Trend Micro Control Manager, an optional feature that facilitates centralised management of antivirus strategies deployed throughout a multiple-site network.
Reliable and Efficient Virus Protection.
ServerProtect combines rule-based and pattern-recognition technologies for efficient virus detection. The scan engine has been certified by both the International Computer Security Association (ICSA) and Virus Bulletin (VB) for reliable scanning.
