Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition provides scalable, cross-platform virus protection for workstations and network servers throughout the enterprise. Symantec System Center™ enables centralized configuration, deployment, policy management, and reporting*, and allows administrators to audit the network to determine which nodes are vulnerable to virus attacks. Administrators can manage client and server groups logically, and can create, deploy, and lock down security policies and settings to keep systems up-to-date and properly configured.

NAVEX™ and Digital Immune System™ technologies provide virus detection, analysis, and repairs via automated submission and response mechanisms. Expanded Threat Detection and Threat Categorization features detect unwanted spyware and adware, while a Threat Tracer feature helps administrators determine the source of blended threats spread through open file shares. Advanced behavior blocking prevents client systems from being used for malicious outbound activities, such as sending worms via email. A new Microsoft Installer results in self-healing capabilities and a 50% reduction in installation footprint. LiveUpdate™ technology allows administrators to configure automatic updates for virus definitions, including updates for definitions that are outdated.

Symantec VPN Sentry technology allows the administrator to ensure that mobile and remote systems connecting to corporate resources via VPN are compliant with security policies. The solution also ensures that machines not connected to the network can store and forward event data to administrators after reconnecting to the network.
