Antivirus for server and network

Question

Antivirus

Hello.
I would like to clean up the network and put all antivirus from one manufacturer.
But I want the server to pull updates, and clients on the network take them from it.
I would like something similar to products from eset, and not look in the direction of Kaspersky products.

What do you advise?

Answer 1

And what, in fact, does not suit ESET itself? I have been working with the corporate version of Eset since version 2.7 - I know of problems and at an acceptable price. Plus distributions in .msi.
For Essential Security, updates can be distributed via WSUS (although the free version will end up with all centralized management of it).

Answer 2

For corporate antivirus protection, you can look towards McAfee ePolicy Orchestator :

Answer 3

All more or less well-known anti-virus solutions have a centralized management server/console and support both server and client operating systems.
The most common solutions I saw in organizations were Kaspersky, Symantec, McAfee, TrendMicro. In terms of management, everyone has advantages and "cockroaches", but I liked Kaspersky and Symantec the most (I worked with him more).
Microsoft Forefront Endpoint Protection is good, but centralized deployment requires a lot of "extra" work (requires full SQL Server with Reporting, WSUS for updates, and SCCM for centralized management).
In small organizations, I also met antiviruses from Dr.Web (although I worked with a centralized console more than 2 years ago, but at that time it was the most terrible and crooked of those that I had ever seen), Eset.
I would recommend trying to install trial versions from different manufacturers and choose what seems to be the most functional / convenient for you.

Answer 4

For local networks, the main thing is safety and reliability of work - NOD disappears immediately (passes viruses).
Dr.Web is now installed and there are no problems

Answer 5

Symantec Endpoint is convenient and efficient
