“…McAfee, which is owned by Network Associates Inc. in Santa
Clara, Calif., last week announced the availability of McAfee
Active Virus Defense, its flagship integrated suite of antivirus
policy management, enforcement and reporting software.”
“The suite includes ePolicy Orchestrator, which enforces virus
policies and updates across a network of up to 100,000 users and
allows network administrators to update security policies across
the enterprise from a single server.”
“The VirusScan engine can be embedded in both Linux and
Solaris applications and managed services with the McAfee Virus
Interface for Protective Early Response tools, which can detect
malicious code such as the Trinoo tool, which launches
distributed denial-of-service attacks.”
