ScanSafe's Web Virus Scanning service eliminates harmful Web-borne viruses at the Internet level before they can enter and infect your network. Browser vulnerabilities are on the increase and ever-faster exploits are designed to harm your business before patches become available. Web Virus Scanning is powered by our proprietary heuristics technology Outbreak Intelligence TM, to provide true defense-in-depth protection against these zero-hour virus threats.
The Problem
Web browsing has become the favorite target of malicious code writers to compromise your network. At the same time the number of browser vulnerabilities continues to rise, fuelling risk from zero-day exploits which can infect systems before patches or signatures are available.
To defend your network against these evolving web virus threats requires a proactive solution which brings together industry leading signature based engines and heuristic and pattern technology gleamed from large samples of HTTP traffic volume.
The Evidence
Average survival expectancy for unprotected PC on Internet is under 30 minutes (SANS Institute)
6% of sites with downloads contained infected executables in Oct 2005 (University of Washington )
80% of PC's are infected with malware (National Cyber Security Alliance )
“36.8% of companies were plagued by one or more browser-based attacks in the last six months” (Computer Technology Industry Association)
Opinion
“ScanSafe was selected to provide a further layer of security for us. We adopt a policy that it is better to prevent email, Web page borne viruses and spam from entering our systems at all rather than letting them in and then dealing with them through our existing internal security systems.”
David Jones, Head of IT, National Express
