Panda Software recently released an upgrade for its security suites for enterprises and SMBs.
The new versions of BusinessSecure and EnterpriSecure include significant innovations, such as new advanced anti-rootkit technology. Performance has also been significantly improved, so that the solutions have a minimal impact on computer resources.
The new 2006 corporate solutions integrate all functions in a flexible interface that minimises resource usage. What's more, the AdminSecure console can be complemented with third-party tools through a powerful software development kit.
According to Jeremy Matthews, MD of Panda Software South Africa: "The integration of technologies in a single solution provides companies with efficient protection, which prevents loss of productivity. The centralised security administration console reduces management time, as on-demand scans can be performed on various computers at the same time. All of these benefits provide a rapid return on investment (ROI), allowing companies to focus on achieving their own objectives."
The main innovations incorporated in these new versions include:
* Higher scalability, as the new versions allow up to 25 000 computers to be updated per hour.
* Protection against rootkits (techniques for hiding malware) in workstations and file servers.
* Network access control of computers that do not meet the company's security policies and which are now detected by NetworkSecure, without needing to install any software on the audited computer.
These and other functions incorporated in the solutions provide better and more efficient protection of corporate networks against Internet threats, especially in terms of performance, as memory usage has improved by over 15%, resulting in immediate benefits for users, such as:
* Quicker startup of computers.
* Through an improved installer, the solutions adapt the protection to the computer based on the RAM available.
* They stop processes related to protecting the computer that are not required at a given time, significantly saving on system resources.
