From the first installation, the ASP provides automatic updating and enterprise reporting. Requiring no human intervention, the VirusScan ASaP agent persistently monitors each system connected to the network, whether in the office or a remote location, providing continuous protection against viruses, worms and other hostile codes. VirusScan ASaP creates version-less software that is always current. Virus scanning and updates are both transparent to the end user and implemented automatically upon boot up, as well as on a scheduled basis. Updates can also be forced for emergencies.
Scans can also be user initiated.
The service also provides detailed reports on a customer's environment. Such reports include status of protection by system, viruses found and killed, outbreak trends and planning reports. CyberCop ASaP is the world's only Internet-based vulnerability assessment and intrusion detection service based on Network Associates trusted security technology. The application does vulnerability assessments by running a series of tests against an IT address to determine where the holes are. Cybercop reveals high, medium and low risk vulnerabilities.
