asked on 

enterprise anti-virus suggestions wanted

We currently use Sophos and are looking for another anti-virus solution to move to. Centralized mgnt console, centralized client deployment. I have been searching the web and see viper and bit defender out there. I am aware of Kaspersky,Trend Micro, McAffe. We had symantec before and it became to expensive to keep and pushing out to the clients had problems. All suggestions and comments welcome. Let me know your experience if you have used any of the programs mentioned.

oops - mean to add... make sure you mention your existing product. They are very aggressive price-wise under competitive upgrade (including 'buying out' any existing time you might have remaining with SEP).

Vipre's running fine for us on Win2K3, SBS 2003, Win2K8R2; XP, Vista and Win7 (32 & 64-bit). Have a couple clients on AVG and it works; but even 2011 version still needs to reboot too often. Vipre initial install will need to reboot (twice if you're removing something else with their admin scripts) but after that it just works.

Anti-Virus Apps

Anti-virus software was originally developed to detect and remove computer viruses. However, with the proliferation of other kinds of malware, antivirus software started to provide protection from other computer threats. In particular, modern antivirus software can protect from malicious browser helper objects (BHOs), browser hijackers, ransomware, keyloggers, backdoors, rootkits, trojan horses, worms, malicious layered service providers (LSPs), dialers, fraud tools, adware and spyware. Some products also include protection from other computer threats, such as infected and malicious URLs, spam, scam and phishing attacks, online identity theft (privacy), online banking attacks, social engineering techniques, Advanced Persistent Threat (APT), botnets and DDoS attacks.
