Features

When the settings for Dr.Web’s workstation protection components are centrally managed, you can:

• Implement a company-specific security policy without having to configure each PC’s protection components.
• Ensure that employees cannot disable the anti-virus or its separate components, which would inevitably reduce the level of protection.
• Ensure that the anti-virus operates with the settings specified by the network administrator.
• Schedule and remotely run regular scans, both on administrator demand and according to a schedule.
• Monitor the regularity of updates and ensure that they cannot be disabled.
• Collect and analyse information on the health of the anti-virus protection system, and generate reports for a specific timeframe.
• Notify administrators and users of the protection system’s health status.
• Timely respond to emerging virus problems, which will lessen the risk of network infections and company financial losses caused by personnel downtimes, data losses, Internet connection breakdowns, and business partners being impacted by your infection issues.

Centralised management of security policies

A system administrator can expand or limit the rights of individual users, a user group, or all user groups to control the agents. For example, the system administrator can:

• allow users to change the anti-virus’s settings;
• allow users to partially modify the settings;
• completely prohibit users from modifying the settings;
• manage workstation permissions;
• manage license keys;
• manage the list of installed protection components and their configuration;
• manage jobs on protected hosts;
• control updating policies, and force updates on agents that have not been updated for a long time;
• force background scanning on protected hosts.

Network installation (remote installation)

• Identify computers on the network that aren't protected by anti-viruses.
• Install Dr.Web remotely onto target computers, for example, by means of Active Directory services.
• The Network Scanner searches for computers by IP address in the local network and generates a hierarchical list of computers, indicating which of them have anti-virus software installed on them.
• Group installer — easy deployment on remote objects with a local network.

Regular updates of virus databases and program modules

The Dr.Web Enterprise Security Suite Control Center lets you forever rule out the possibility that employees will neglect to install critical updates. It ensures that virus outbreaks in your local network will be prevented and that an infection won't spread beyond its borders. Also Dr.Web Enterprise Security Suite enables you to:

• Configure the Dr.Web component update procedure on protected workstations by distributing the load at different time intervals.
• Monitor virus databases and the status of the PCs.
• Apply the update settings of one station to another station or to a whole group (or groups).
• Take advantage of the mobile mode so that the machines of employees who work off-site remain protected.

Lower traffic usage in high-load virtual environments and low-quality bandwidth situations.

• Broadcast update mode;
• Caching of updates and the anti-virus agent components;
• Caching of encrypted traffic;
• Events transmitted by the Dr.Web Agents are accumulated for their subsequent scheduled transfer to the Dr.Web Server;
• Dr.Web Enterprise Security Suite can be updated as before, using special utilities, and Dr.Web Proxy-server's cache can be updated manually, from the Dr.Web Server repository in particular.

Make sure that the protected hosts are scanned for viruses regularly

The Dr.Web Control Center lets you centrally enforce a security policy for conducting regular scans:

• Start/stop scanning on remote hosts without interfering with the user experience.
• Specify scan paths.
• Specify any necessary group and individual scan schedules, i.e. scan the system at a time convenient for employees.

Restrict access network-wide to removable data storage media

The restriction of access to removable devices is centrally configured in the Dr.Web Control Center.

With Dr.Web Office Control you can:

• Define the files and folders on the local network to which an employee may have access, and prohibit access to those that are off-limits. This prevents data and sensitive information from being deliberately or intentionally damaged, deleted, or stolen by attackers or insiders (i.e., employees seeking access to confidential information).
• network administrators can configure restrictions for all of the users who use the same device; when protecting employee home computers, company information will be kept separate from the private information of family members;
• access rules can be centrally created not only by using device buses and classes separately, but also by combining them;
• Restrict or deny access to websites and removable devices, and therefore, exclude the possibility of a virus invading via those sources.
