NetworkCare Endpoint Security – Features
Anti-Virus protection from viruses, worms and Trojans

• Analyze and detect unwanted executable applications or DLL libraries within the system that may be spyware, adware etc. Based upon the security profile, FCES will remove these programs or block access to them.
• Scan the system registry for suspicious entries, temporary Internet files and tracking cookies, and treat the potentially harmful items in the same manner as any other infection.
• Detect computer viruses by:
  • Scanning – on-access and on-demand scanning
  • Heuristic Analysis – dynamic emulation of a scanned object’s instructions within a virtual computing environment
  • Generic Detection – detection of instructions characteristic of the virus or group of viruses
  • Known Virus Detection – searching for character strings characteristic of a virus
• Multi-Level Virus Checks:
  
  • Our Email Scanner checks incoming and outgoing mail by using plug-ins designed for the most frequently used e-mail programs. The E-mail Scanner is an additional program for electronic mail monitoring and is designed for applications supporting the POP3/SMTP protocols. Once detected, viruses are cleaned or quarantined. Some e-mail clients may support messages with text certifying that sent and received e-mail has been scanned for viruses. In addition, for an increased level of security when working with electronic mail, the Attachment Filter will be set by defining undesirable or suspect files.
  • FCES Real-Time Protection scans files as they are copied, opened or saved. When the Real Time Protection discovers a virus in a file that is accessed, it stops the operation currently being performed and does not allow the virus to activate itself. The Real Time Protection, loaded in the memory of the computer during system startup, also provides vital protection for the system areas of the computer.
  • On-Demand Scanning is a crucial part of FCES functionality. Scans will be run periodically at convenient times.

Anti-Spyware

Spyware is usually defined as a type of malware (software that gathers information from a computer without the user’s knowledge or consent).  Some spyware applications may also be deliberately installed and often contain advertisements, window pop-ups or different types of unpleasant software.  Ideally, spyware and other malware should be prevented from intruding.  Currently, the most common source of infection is websites with potentially dangerous content.  Other methods of transmission include e-mail or transmission by worms and viruses.  The most important protection is to use an always-on background scanner, such as the cutting edge FCES Spyware component.  It works like a resident shield and scans applications in the background as they run.

Centralized Management

Our centrally managed security profiles for your firm are defined and deployed to the managed computers using our NetworkCare console interface. The profiles are used to establish best practices to keep the computers and servers running and malware free. All information detected is logged within our system and available for executive summary and detailed management reporting.

Automated Deployment

Once deployed, your entire network system is monitored to ensure protection is active and enabled.  Utilizing the NetworkCare proactive practice, updates are handled automatically on a scheduled basis without the need for user interaction. Security protection is then always up and running and kept up-to date.

Virus Detection

Our scanning engine has received numerous awards for its excellent detection of “in the wild” viruses, including the VB100% award. Its unique combination of detection methods provides full protection against viruses, worms and trojans.

Cutting-Edge Anti-Spyware Technology

Detects spyware, adware, DLL-trojans, keyloggers, and much more. Malware hidden in data streams, archives, or the Windows registry is also detected.

Full On-Access Protection

Provides maximum protection by scanning every file opened, executed, or saved. It also prevents the opening or executing of infected files.

Flexible intelligent Scanning

Is used to include/exclude files from being scanned based on individual file extensions and can handle exceptions for potentially unwanted programs such as adware.

Full E-mail Protection

Checks every email sent or received, providing full protection from email-borne threats. Supports MS Outlook.
