BitDefender Arms Small and Mid-Sized Businesses Against E-Threats with a Comprehensive Security and Management Solution BitDefender Business Solution Version 3.5 delivers additional layers of proactive detection while reducing the cost and complexity of securing SMB networks against viruses and other malware BUCHAREST, Romania — March 14, 2011 — Breaking new ground in efforts to address the security challenges facing small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs), BitDefender?, an award-winning provider of innovative internet security solutions, today launched a new version of its BitDefender Business Solutions. The latest release includes features that make deploying and managing anti-virus protection faster within the network — while improving the ability to detect and block increasingly dangerous malware.
Built upon BitDefender’s award-winning anti-malware technology and developed specifically with SMB budgets and requirements in mind, BitDefender integrates antimalware protection with remote network audit and system management using WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) technology, allowing administrators to gain an additional layer of visibility and protection to help them identify and eliminate gaps caused by rouge applications or system configurations within their network.
With the addition of enhanced visibility and improved manageability, BitDefender’s Business Solutions go beyond traditional corporate antimalware solutions to protect critical services such as email messaging systems, desktop clients and servers from attacks - whether the threats originate from outside or within the organization.
Version 3.5 includes detection and performance enhancements such as Active Virus Control (AVC) Technology for Business Client v3.5, BitDefender Antivirus for Mac — Business Edition, Exchange 2010 Compatibility, and a new Anti-spam engine with quarantine controls for SMTP Mail & Exchange servers.
To increase visibility in networked assets and minimize the impact of the rapidly spreading malware infections, the new Centralized Management dashboard consolidates threat information and provides a wizard-driven Endpoint Auditing and Reporting Module. The auditing module enables organizations to create an inventory of hardware and software assets for internal financial, governmental or industry specific compliancy reporting.
Other features included address the challenge of limited IT resources by streamlining business operations help SMBs use these resources more effectively, simplifying policy implementation and system management with wizard-driven security policy creation, network tools to remotely manage devices, and integration into Active Directory to leverage the organizational structure already embedded in the network.
“BitDefender understands that SMB’s today are challenged not only with the dangers of malware and viruses, but also with the cost and complexity of ensuring the protection necessary in a constantly changing threat landscape,” said Rares Stefan,XYZ of BitDefender. “The features released in Version 3.5 provide a simple yet powerful solution for a number of unique SMB challenges, delivering protection against increasingly sophisticated malware threats, while at the same time taking new steps to make the deployment, management and overall support of a comprehensive security solution far more cost and resource effective than other solutions in the market today.”
BitDefender’s new Business Solutions provide defense in depth for SMB networks and includes:
BitDefender Management Server, Business Clients for Windows, Macintosh, and Linux desktops, BitDefender Security for File Servers, BitDefender Security for SharePoint (2007/2003), BitDefender Security for Mail Servers and BitDefender Security for Exchange (2010/2007/2003).
