Virus and Worm Scanning
As new viruses and worms are constantly being developed, protection against these threats becomes increasingly complex, and increasingly important. At the height of their outbreaks, one in seven emails contained the SoBig.F virus; one in 30 emails contained the SirCam virus; and one in 24 emails contained the Love Bug virus.
The latest sophisticated, blended virus attacks spread infected files, often without the knowledge of the victimised user. They automatically use a combination of email, network shares, chat programs and peer-to-peer file-sharing networks, to move rapidly through the Internet.
The best email defence system is one that stays one step ahead of the next attack. Emails are scanned for viruses before they enter the network, using our sophisticated anti-virus technology. Virus updates are proactively performed every five minutes, which greatly reduces the risk of an outbreak or infection.
With the Domainmonster.com Virus & Spam Protection product, emails suspected of containing viruses or worms are automatically moved to quarantine, according to your preferences. This system keeps you safe, while maintaining an industry-leading low for false positives (emails incorrectly marked as dangerous).
