symantec endpoint protection small business edition adware

A rules-based firewall engine and Generic Exploit Blocking block malware before it can enter a system.

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

Application Control: blocks or allows applications that try to access system resources.

Device Control: blocks or allows access from devices, such as USB, infrared, FireWire, SCSI, serial ports, and parallel ports.

Proactive Threat Scanning: analyzes the behavior of an application or process to determine if it exhibits characteristics of threats.

Intrusion Prevention: acts as the client's second layer of defense after the firewall.

Personal Firewall: prevents unauthorized users from accessing the computers and the networks that connect to the Internet.

Antivirus and Antispyware: scans for both viruses and security risks.

Symantec Endpoint Protection combines technologies from previous Symantec products in a new interface: It consists of client software that runs on the endpoints and management software that runs on a server. Symantec Endpoint Protection 11.0 protects networked laptops, desktops, and servers ('endpoints') against viruses, worms, Trojan horses, spyware, adware, rootkits, and threats not seen before ('zero-day attacks').
