Along with AVERT, McAfee provides 24x7 technical support for all customers to ensure complete satisfaction.

Features:
Automatic Distribution of Virus Updates
Utilizing the peer-to-peer distribution of McAfee’s Rumor technology, Managed VirusScan plus AntiSpyware monitors all desktops and file servers connected to the Internet, checks silently for updates and then distributes new updates automatically – without user interaction. This keeps end-user productivity high and security management low.
And whether you have users not connected to the Internet or users on a dial-up connection, your business can still be protected by McAfee’s Internet Independent Updating technology. Managed VirusScan plus AntiSpyware simplifies dial-up updates by automatically checking for updates every time a dial-up connection is made to the network. And with a simple connection to a system with Internet access acting as a relay, even those systems that don’t have an Internet connection can still receive updated protection through our peer-to-peer sharing technology.
Spyware/Adware Detection
Keep your systems free of unwanted applications that may be watching, recording and externally transmitting sensitive company information. McAfee proactive detects and blocks potentially unwanted programs (PUPs) like key-loggers, Web dialers, pop-ups and adware that can track Internet usage, access personal data such as passwords and account information, and can simply reduce your overall business productivity. Administrators can even customize the policy of handling unwanted programs easily from our centralized management portal.
Enhanced Outbreak Response
You may not be in the office during a virus outbreak, but don’t worry, McAfee is there. During an outbreak scenario, McAfee works behind the scenes to check for medium or high-risk virus updates, and immediately applies them to all your desktops and file servers, wherever their locations, for continuous protection without IT assistance.
Centralized Management and Reporting
Managed VirusScan plus AntiSpyware is preconfigured to protect your small business with security best practices. However, if your business needs flexibility for certain groups or locations, McAfee provides free access to a centralized management portal to easily configure anti-virus and anti-spyware policies. Schedule on-demand scans or customize update intervals in order to maximize your protection efficiencies. From the same centralized management portal, McAfee’s Web-based reports detail company wide protection information such as coverage status summary, desktops updated, and viruses cleaned, deleted, and quarantined – this visibility proves to you that the service is protecting your business against new threats.
Hassle-free Online Installation and Deployment
With three easy methods for deployment: common, silent, and push, Managed VirusScan plus AntiSpyware allows your business to be up and running and protected quickly – wherever your users are located. No more tedious manuals to read – our installation is simple and quick. With its small file size that won’t overwhelm your system bandwidth, Managed VirusScan plus AntiSpyware is installed via the Internet with an installation link. Forward the installation link to your connected users and with a click of the link, your users can be protected from emerging threats and pesky spyware in a matter of minutes.
