Low-Resource Enterprise Antivirus & Endpoint Protection
Kiss Your Antivirus Bloatware Goodbye... Finally! All-in-one endpoint malware protection... that's not a resource hog! VIPRE Enterprise Premium combines high-performance antivirus, antispyware, and a client firewall into a single agent so you get comprehensive endpoint malware protection with low system resource usage. Clean, fast, and powerful: 'by admins for admins'. VIPRE has beenVB100 and ICSA certified, which means you get world-class protection. Tired of dealing with hard-to-manage bloatware.
What's New In VIPRE Enterprise Premium?
- We have kept all the strong points of VIPRE Enterprise. It's still a super-low overhead single endpoint agent. No bloatware here! We included a 2-way desktop firewall, Host Intrusion Protection (HIPS), Intrusion Detection System (IDS), Network Intrusion Protection System (NIPS) and comes with Ad- and script blocking, Bad URL filtering and anti-phishing.
- You also get a unique IDS functionality - as an admin you have the ability to write detailed rules based on Snort® for zero day threats that may not have a patch available and deploy your new rule to all agents. These rules can be made to block defined patterns of traffic incoming or outgoing. You have web filtering capabilities to block content like Java script, VB scripts, ActiveX and malicious advertisements at the endpoint.
- A new multi-site service, called 'VIPRE Site Service' that allows you to set up "tiering" and "peering" for large-scale network deployments. The VIPRE Site Service, along with a new feature that allows you to grant granular security permissions, is ideal for multi-site organizations and Managed Service Providers, as you can create a site for each office location or customer, and give limited admin privileges for the remote site.
- A new, stand-alone Report Viewer provides you with the option to give company execs access to all data in any format they choose without giving them access to the console or database.
- Super small virus detections are now processed and sent out continually throughout the day, typically one per hour, via the new VIPRE SteadyStream™ mechanism.
Real-Time Live Threat Data Integration
VIPRE Enterprise Premium benefits from multiple sources for its threat definition updates with live threat data from SunbeltLabs™ integrated directly into VIPRE. SunbeltLabs processes tens of thousands of malware samples a day and leverages the following:
- ThreatNet™ – Sunbelt's user community of hundreds of thousands of VIPRE consumer users that anonymously send information on possible threats to Sunbelt.
- Sunbelt CWSandbox™ – the leading automated malware behavior analysis tool for fast and autonomous analysis of large volumes of malware samples.
- ThreatTrack™ – SunbeltLabs' data feeds that include the latest malicious URLs used to block bad websites and phishing emails.
- SteadyStream™ Updates – provide compact and continuous updates throughout the day -- at least once an hour. Incremental updating technology minimizes the size of regular update files, with fast application of updates.
Cutting-edge Proactive Protection
Sunbelt's advanced security technology is famous for being in the front lines in the battle against new and unknown malware, known as 'zero-day threats'.
- VIPRE's Active Protection™ delivers real-time monitoring and protection against known and unknown malware threats. Active Protection works inside the Windows kernel (the core of the operating system), watching for malware and stopping it before it has a chance to execute on your system. (Other anti-malware products allow the malware to run on your computer to try and watch for bad behavior which is less safe).
- MX-Virtualization™ analyzes malware in real-time, in a secured memory "lock box" that emulates Windows. MX-V fools the malware into thinking it has taken over your PC. MX-V allows VIPRE to observe how the malware behaves and kill it before it infects a machine. MX-V technology is the safest way to protect against zero-day threats.
- VIPRE's Genscan™ and Cobra™ heuristics use super efficient dynamic pattern assessment to determine if something is malware.
- FirstScan™ removes rootkits at the system's boot time and bypasses the Windows operating system, to directly scan certain locations of the hard drive for malware, removing infections where found. Includes native support for 32 and 64-bit Windows platforms.
Client Firewall And Web Filtering
The VIPRE Enterprise Premium version integrates a client firewall, host-based intrusion prevention (HIPS), network intrusion prevention (NIPS), and an intrusion detection system (IDS) that proactively protects against exploits and zero-day threats.
- Unique IDS functionality – Included in VIPRE are pre-defined IDS rules that are updated through VIPRE threat signatures. You also have the ability to write detailed rules based on the Snort® language to complement your own security profile. Rules can be made to block admin-defined inbound or outbound traffic.
- Boot time firewall – The Boot Time feature allows you to limit access on a desktop to only certain network resources upon loading.
- Ad blocking – Automatically block third-party advertisements to reduce web page clutter.
- Script blocking – Optionally block Java script, VB scripts, and ActiveX controls.
- Bad URL blocking – Bad website blocking that uses the comprehensive ThreatTrack malicious URL feeds from SunbeltLabs.
- Anti-phishing – Blocks access to known phishing websites by email or through the web browser.
