Symantec Client Security provides
better protection at the client against complex Internet threats -
including blended threats such as Nimda and Code Red - by integrating
antivirus, firewall, and intrusion detection technologies, through
centralized management and response. Its integration of industry-leading
security technologies at the client tier provides comprehensive
security, while helping to reduce overall security costs. Symantec
Client Security provides a common deployment and updating function for
Symantec's anti-virus, firewall, and intrusion detection technologies,
helping to reduce the overhead, risk and administrative burden
associated with managing individual point products from multiple
vendors. Symantec Client Security can automatically scan files for known
and unknown viruses, block suspect inbound and outbound traffic, as well
as unauthorized intrusions and port scans. Symantec Client Security is
backed by Symantec Security Response - the industry-leading global
research and support organization. Updates for Symantec Client Security
are delivered by a single, integrated mechanism - LiveUpdate to ensure
rapid deployment and security policy enforcement.
Centralized client security management via Symantec System Center offers
a comprehensive view of all security functions and enables advanced
management and response to complex Internet threats. Administrator
resources are optimized since installation, reporting, and updating of
multiple security technologies can all be handled from one console.
Symantec Client Security incorporates unique backend infrastructure
technologies from Symantec, including NAVEX, Digital Immune System, and
Bloodhound. These technologies protect organizations against known and
unknown threats. With Symantec Client Security, enterprises no longer
need to purchase, update and manage multiple security products from
multiple vendors or address interoperability issues between various
vendors' products. Multiple integrated technologies from a single vendor
enable coordinated management and response. In addition to improving
protection, this helps reduce administrative and support costs, as well
as total cost of ownership.
