Product Features
Comprehensive, proactive anti-virus
protection The McAfee
anti-virus scan engine stops every type of
virus and malicious code threat, including
“traditional” viruses, email worms, Internet
worms, DDoS (distributed denial-of-service)
attacks, backdoor and remote access Trojans,
and zombies. Using technology that drills
down into compressed data, VirusScan is also
able to find hidden threats buried in .zip
and other compressed file types.
Proactive protection is delivered through
advanced heuristics and generic detection,
which allow VirusScan to protect—in
advance—against new, unseen viruses and
other threats. And with advanced
in-memory scanning, VirusScan protects
systems from threats such as CodeRed and
SQLSlammer, which don’t write their code to
disk, by removing the process from memory.

Continuous on-access scanning
Unlike previous on-demand or scheduled
scanning approaches, VirusScan for NetApp
provides constant scanning in real time,
offering protection to users when they are
accessing or copying files or when files are
being written to the server.

Unwanted program protection
Automatic detection of unwanted programs
helps keep users safe from hidden programs
that track Internet usage, access personal
data such as passwords and account
information, or open security holes.

Multiple filer scanning
VirusScan for NetApp includes
“multi-to-multi” functionality that allows
administrators to create a bank of scanner
servers to serve a bank of filers, thereby
reducing maintenance costs, increasing
load-balancing capacity and performance, and
allowing for more-controlled fail-over
scenarios.

Orchestrator—one of the only truly scalable
security policy management tools—for policy
management, detailed graphical reporting,
and software deployment. ePolicy
Orchestrator is a centralized authority to
enforce protection compliance, providing a
