McAfee VirusScan

Description

McAfee VirusScan proactively stops and removes threats while extending coverage for new zero day security risks. Plus it gives the flexibility to detect and block malware based on a businesses need: on access, on demand or on a schedule.

Key Features

  • Award-Winning Scanning engine - detects and cleans malware to protect files from viruses, worms, rootkits, Trojans and other threats.

  • Behavioral Analysis - VirusScan uses advanced behavioral techniques with port bloakcing, file-name blocking, folder/directory lockdown and infection trace and block that can stop new and unknown malware files.

  • Centralized Management - and enforcement is the key to effective and efficient protection. McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO) provides centralized deployment, policy configuration and enforcement while providing detailed reporting.

  • Easily Manage Quarantined Files - Before an on-access or on-demand scan cleans or deletes a file, it creates a backup copy of the original file and registry value in the quarantine directory. This improves remediation capabilities in case a file is accidentally marked as malicious and is quarantined.
