Anti-Virus

Today's computing environment is over-run with malicious software that attacks our systems in every aspect of our operations, including normal email and web activities. Many of these attacks are dinistinguishable from legitimate communications. The open nature of the Global Internet exposes all Internet-connected systems to continuous automated attacks. As a Defense contractor, we are specifically targeted by intelligence and cyber exploitation forces of hostile foreign Governments. Although our Federal, State, and Local Government agencies protects us against physical attacks, there is no-one protecting companies and citizens against cyber attacks. We are all on our own to protect our information and systems.

Symantec Endpoint Protection

Our corporate solution is Symantec's Endpoint Protection technology instead of individual anti-virus systems. The benefits of this solution include enterprise managability, scaleability, and situational awareness. Within this architecture, all workstations, laptops, and file servers run an agent that communicates with our central server to maintain current attack signatures, monitor traffic, and scan stored files for malware. These signatures are continuously updated by Symantec's Global Threat Monitoring systems, ensuring that we are always on the look-out for the latest threat activities.
