  3. Why the changes? OfficeScan 8 to OfficeScan 10 (Windows) Symantec AV for Macs to Trend Micro Security for Mac 1.5 • Support for new operating systems (Windows 7, Mac OS X 10.6/Snow Leopard) • Support contract for Symantec AV for Macs ended Oct. 27 and no budget for renewal • Release of managed Trend Micro client for Macs • Mac product bundled in pre-paid Trend Micro contract (since paid per user, not per device/platform); licenses paid thru March 2012; support renewed annually • More security features for Mac (like Web Reputation Services) • Beneficial features in OfficeScan 10 • Single vendor for AV and tech support • Can manage both platforms from single OfficeScan server • Give Shea more work before she leaves K-State

  4. Timeline • Oct. 27: Symantec AV for Macs support contract expired • Tuesday, November 10: • OfficeScan 10 for Windows pushed to clients that use the central IT Trend Micro service • OfficeScan 10 available on antivirus.ksu.edu for new installations • TM Security for Mac 1.5 available from antivirus.ksu.edu for manual installation • New antivirus.ksu.edu web site released • January 2010 – Trend required in residence halls for both Windows and Macs

  5. New antivirus web site • Replaces current one on Nov. 10 • New ITS web format • Easier for user to find what they need • www.k-state.edu/its/antivirus or antivirus.k-state.edu • Linked from the main ITS web site

  6. Trend Micro OfficeScan 10 • Major upgrade from version 8 (where did version 9 go?!) • Ripe with marketing hype (“Cloud-Client Architecture”, “Smart Protection Network”, “Global Threat Intelligence”) • But it appears to provide real value: • Faster deployment of pattern file updates • Smaller client footprint • Windows 7 support in sp1 (not officially supported in OfficeScan 8) • More options for re-scheduling missed scheduled scans • Better Active Directory integration • Better control of removable devices like USB drives • Protection of the OfficeScan program itself (prevents malware from altering OfficeScan files, processes and registry entries)

  7. TMOS 10 Features • “In-the-cloud” scanning (“SmartScan”) vs. conventional scanning • Client uses pattern info stored on local or global servers rather than having to store everything on every client computer • Updates pattern files hourly instead of daily • Smaller pattern files on the client, less network bandwidth used to deploy pattern files • Some heuristic-based detection • Can still do conventional scanning for systems with limited Internet access

  8. TMOS 10 Features • Better options for dealing with missed scheduled scan • Postpone a schedule scan before it begins • Stop and Resume a current active schedule scan • Resume a missed schedule scan • Automatically skip schedule scan when Laptop Battery is below certain % • Automatically stop schedule scan when it lasts over a certain amount of period.

  9. TMOS 10 Features • Device Access Control • Sysadmins can control use of removable drives • Examples: Removable Thumb Drives, Firewire Hard Drives, PC-Cards, Media Players.

  10. TMOS 10 Features • The Trend Micro Unauthorized Change Prevention Service replaces the OfficeScan watchdog as the principal means of preventing OfficeScan services from being stopped, and settings from being changed • To prevent OSCE applications being injected with malware and impact business operation • Feature provides the ability to protect OfficeScan files / file types within folders from being modified • Protect OfficeScan system processes to prevent unauthorized shut-down • Protect OfficeScan system registries from unauthorized modification

  11. TMOS 10 User Experience • After automatic installation, user will be prompted to reboot via the pop-up warning in the lower right hand corner of the screen (above system tray) • Icon change OfficeScan 8 & Conventional Scan OfficeScan 10 w/ Smart Scan Problem communicating w/ server

  12. TMOS 10 User Experience • OfficeScan console largely the same • Firewall config for communicating with OfficeScan servers: • Smart Scan server: TCP/443 from 10.130.69.52 (on campus only) • OfficeScan server (conventional scan): TCP/8080 from 129.130.255.181 • Off campus, component updates try campus server, then failover toosce10-p.activeupdate.trendmicro.com

  13. TMOS 10 User Experience • What else about TMOS 10? What is your experience? • TMOS 10 install wipe out any custom TMOS 8 configs? • No tool yet to export/import config from TMOS 8 server to TMOS 10 environment, but they’re working on it. • Significant CPU utilization every hour on Local Scan Server when it downloads and processes new pattern files – has this been a problem? • Pushing new pattern file on demand (like in yesterday’s malware outbreak, how to push to both conventional and SmartScanconfigs) • Standalone Scan Server requires VMware™ ESXi Server 3.5 Update 2. VMware ESX™ Server 3.5 or 3.0, or VMware Server 2.0 • 1,000 client limit if run Local Scan Server and OfficeScan server on same server (compared to 5,000-8,000 clients for latter) – called “Integrated Scan Server”

  14. Trend Micro Security for Mac • Features/Advantages: • No additional cost to cover all Macs • Symantec license was for 1,500 Macs; Trend licensed by user, unlimited quantity for home/office, student/employee • Managed product (can push pattern file updates, manage configuration, centralized reporting, etc.) • Managed as plug-in to current Windows OfficeScan servers, so have common mgmt platform • Service Pack 1 supports Mac OS X 10.6/Snow Leopard (Symantec still not supporting 10.6) • Supports Mac OS X 10.4/5/6 on Intel and PowerPC processors • Includes Web Reputation Services to help prevent users from visiting known malicious web sites • Covered by current Silver Premium Support contract • Single vendor for all AV product • No additional cost

  15. Trend Micro Security for Mac • Trend Micro Security for Mac Version 1.5 (TMSM 1.5) released in late summer, replacing standalone v. 1.0 from spring • Service Pack 1 with Snow Leopard support released Oct. 7 • Full-featured antivirus product with real-time, scheduled, and manual scans; regular pattern file updates; centralized mgmt; Web Reputation Services to control access to known malicious web sites • Available Nov. 10 from antivirus.k-state.edu for manual installation • Management requires OfficeScan server running on Windows; colleges/depts can use central IT server if needed (talk to Shea) • For client installation, must remove any other antivirus first • ClamXav for those who installed it on 10.6/Snow Leopard • Symantec AV on all others (see www.k-state.edu/its/antivirus/mac/removemacav.html)

  16. Trend Micro Security for Mac • Default port for communicating with server is 61617; open firewall for that port both incoming and outgoing • Campus computers should install TMSM 1.5 starting next week • Students in residence halls should install after Nov. 10 as well; will be forced to in January before the start of the spring semester (waiting on Bradford Campus Manager support) • For sysadmins, manuals available atwww.trendmicro.com/download/product.asp?productid=114
