  2. Virus – What is it? • The first viruses to appear were small programs made to do nothing with Your computer, but to have fun with it, no harm intended. • Today a virus is a sofisticated piece of software with a built-in SMTP server designed to spread itself, it can shut down Your anti-virus software and send Your personal passwords to a fixed location on the Internet. • Today computerviruses are a serious securityproblem, it’s not for fun anymore, only harmful and destructive behavior is considered a succes with a virusdesigner. mailFencepresentation

  10. The trouble with e-mail security 98% of all virus is spread through e-mail. Traditionel anti-virus software has only 1 scanner. Traditional anti-virus software is first active after the virus has entered Your company network. Your company is responsible for updating, maintaining and licensing the anti-virus software. mailFencepresentation

  11. Why not settle for 1 scanner? • Anti-virus software must constantly be updated and improved to keep up with the virusdesigners. • The software has to prepare for virus in compressed files, virus being launched from code (ex. HTML) and other new ways to launch a virus. • Independent tests done every month have shown, that a single anti-virus software product doesn’t get a top rating several months in a row. *1 • No antivirus software promises 100% virussecurity! *1: According to independent tests fra ICSA Labs, West Coast Labs, Virus Bulletin, AV-Test.org, Virus TestCenter mailFencepresentation
