Description: 

Symantec Endpoint Protection Small Business Edition 12.0 protects networked laptops, desktops, and servers ("endpoints") against viruses, worms, Trojan horses, spyware, adware, rootkits, and threats not seen before ("zero-day attacks"). It consists of client software that runs on the endpoints and management software that runs on a server.

Symantec Endpoint Protection Small Business Edition incorporates these technologies of the standard Endpoint Protection application:
•    Antivirus and Antispyware: scans for both viruses and security risks
•    Personal Firewall: prevents unauthorised users from accessing the computers and the networks that connect to the Internet
•    Intrusion Prevention: acts as the client's second layer of defense after the firewall
•    Proactive Threat Scanning: analyzes the behavior of an application or process to determine if it exhibits characteristics of threats

The Small Business Edition does not include the Device Control or Application Control technologies, which are more useful to larger organisations.

The management software uses a single console to manage all the endpoints in an organisation. Software and policy updates can be sent to all the organisation's computers and servers, and their activities and statuses can be monitored centrally. Reports are available in web-based graphical form.

Rather than having several "agents" installed for the various functions, Endpoint Protection uses a single agent for all of them and thereby uses less memory and disk space on each endpoint.

This product is identical to the version sold through the Symantec website and includes the standard support, renewal, and upgrade options available with retail products.

•    Administrators can control access to specific processes, files, and folders by both users and applications.
•    The Client Installation Wizard simplifies deployment of client software and reduces the need for installation and deployment training.
