Anti-Spyware for Managed Services Providers
Kaseya Endpoint Security (KES) protects both servers and workstations from threats associated with spyware, trojans and other malicious code. Leveraging AVG’s award-winning proactive and reactive technologies, Managed Services Providers are able to expand their service offerings to include effective protection against malicious programs ensuring not only anti-spyware protection but protection from unknown threats.
Spyware is usually defined as a type of malware, which is software that gathers information from a computer without the user's knowledge or consent. Some spyware applications may also be deliberately installed and often contain advertisements, window pop-ups or different types of unpleasant software. Ideally, spyware and other malware should be prevented from intruding.
Currently, the most common source of infection is websites with potentially dangerous content. Other methods of transmission include e-mail or transmission by worms and viruses. The most important protection is to use an always-on background scanner, such as the cutting edge Kaseya Endpoint Security Spyware component. It works like a resident shield and scans applications in the background as they run.
Anti-Virus protection for Managed Services Providers
Analyze and detect unwanted executable applications or DLL libraries within the system that may be spyware, adware etc. Based upon the customizable security profile, Kaseya Endpoint Security will remove these programs or block access to them.
Scan the system registry for suspicious entries, temporary Internet files and tracking cookies, and treat the potentially harmful items in the same manner as any other infection.
Detect computer viruses by:
- Scanning - on-access and on-demand scanning
- Heuristic Analysis - dynamic emulation of a scanned object's instructions within a virtual computing environment
- Generic Detection - detection of instructions characteristic of the virus or group of viruses
- Known Virus Detection - searching for character strings characteristic of a virus
- E-Mail Scanner - Checks incoming and outgoing mail by using plug-ins designed for the most frequently used e-mail programs. The E-mail Scanner is an additional program for electronic mail monitoring and is designed for applications supporting the POP3/SMTP protocols. Once detected, viruses are cleaned or quarantined. Some e-mail clients may support messages with text certifying that sent and received e-mail has been scanned for viruses. In addition, for an increased level of security when working with electronic mail, the Attachment Filter can be set by defining undesirable or suspect files.
- Real-Time Protection - Scans files as they are copied, opened or saved. When the Real Time Protection discovers a virus in a file that is accessed, it stops the operation currently being performed and does not allow the virus to activate itself. The Real Time Protection, loaded in the memory of the computer during system startup, also provides vital protection for the system areas of the computer.
- On-Demand Scans - Scanning is a crucial part of Kaseya Endpoint Security functionality. Scans can be run on-demand or scheduled to run periodically at convenient times. Kaseya Endpoint Security comes with pre-defined security profiles along with the ability to create customer profiles.
