Virus
infection was the single largest cause of serious security breaches
in 2001, with 42% of UK businesses that use Internet email suffering
from virus infection as a result* BSG
Hosting Services provides anti-virus protection to all its clients.
The levels of service available include:
Email – Scans all inbound and outbound
email traffic passing through the SMTP email gateway. The scanning
process works seamlessly, thereby making it "transparent"
to end-users. The service may be set up to automatically clean or
quarantine a file and immediately alert system administrators upon
detection of a virus. The service also features content filtering
to stop specific virus hoaxes.
File server - Detects virus-infected files
transmitted to and from servers, and provides added security by
scanning for viruses in other server locations. Once detected, the
infected file can be automatically cleaned, quarantined, or deleted.
The anti-virus service is administered and
managed by BSG Hosting services who deploy updates and upgrades
and configure and monitor anti-virus security for your service.
BSG partners with Network Associates to provide
McAfee Total Virus Defence (TVD) a market leader in anti-virus protection.
In addition, BSG offers anti-virus protection
for your own office environment, available as above, but including
desktop protection.
