The Data Fellows management architecture can be used to manage Data Fellows anti-virus software for workstations and server software, as well as its network and file encryption software. A single policy-based mechanism provides management services to all security products in the company. This both minimizes management effort and costs and maximizes security by integrating different security services into a seamless solution.
