      Not a recommendation per se; I'm using Avast[^]! on both the Windows and Linux-machines, and seems like there's a "mobile" version. There's a version for "small business", aiming at 1-200 pc's. The reason I'm not using Symantec is because they provide a backdoor to a third party. Norton has been tried and removed, after coming up with annoying messages, dialogs and eating away resources. There's a nice comparison on the Wikipedia[^].

      Bastard Programmer from Hell :suss: if you can't read my code, try converting it here[^]

        There are many managed solutions available. E.g.: 1. Sophos End point security and control 2. TrendMicro OfficeScan 3. McAfee VirusScan Enterprise However, the best solution depends on your needs! Some variables could be: 1. Support/ SLA 2. Price 3. Configuration/Management options 4. Integration with existing infrastructure 5. Confidentiality requirements (e.g. connecting to Vendor's servers is not acceptable) See the following web-sites to get a feel of performance of various AV products. http://www.av-comparatives.org/[^] http://www.av-test.org/en/home/[^]

          Depends which versions of Windows Servers you're running? Forefront endpoint protection and System Center Endpoint Protection come with most licensing agreements with current Windows products. As was pointed out: TrendMicro is fairly good, which even MalwareBytes has a Enterprise version of their quality AV. Manageability is a huge factor though, which cost is not far behind. A lot depends on existing Infrastructure like if you have a Firewall, IDS/IPS systems like Dell Secureworks, or other security blocks in place.

          Something worth reading, albeit it's invincible!
