Checkmark Anti-Virus Certified
VIPRE is Checkmark Anti-Virus Desktop certified by West Coast Labs and will receive additional certifications through other certifying bodies in the coming months.
Powerful, comprehensive scanning agent technology
The VIPRE Enterprise agent is based on the same technology as VIPRE Antivirus + Antispyware for consumers. VIPRE Enterprise utilizes a high speed threat scanning engine that can scan large volumes of information for malware threats in a short period of time with limited performance impact on the end user's machine. With its optional agent user interface, users can stop and start scans and manage their own quarantine.
Excellent Reviews in the Press
PC Magazine: "As its name indicates, Sunbelt Software's VIPRE Antivirus + Antispyware 3.1 is designed to handle all kinds of malicious software, and it does a very thorough job." CNET: "VIPRE combines antivirus and antispyware technology in a fast and light application that also includes a worthy set of security tools." ZDNET: "I've finally found an antivirus package that delivers the goods. Next, in a followup post he does a performance shoot-out and concludes: "Sunbelt Software's claim that VIPRE doesn't hog system resources and doesn't slow down a PC isn't just marketing hyperbole but is actually true." GeGeek.com: "A Totally Revolutionary Approach to Antivirus/Spyware Software… I've been waiting years for some kind of new technology to emerge to fight viruses and spyware…. Well Sunbelt Software has broken the mold. No one is absolutely sure exactly how at this point, but everyone is excited…." VirusBulletin: "…VIPRE did not disappoint. The design and layout is splendidly clear and useable, the range of features easily accessed and controlled. The protection capabilities are impressive, and will doubtless be even more so once a final release is available."
Real-time monitoring with Active Protection
VIPRE's Active Protection delivers real time monitoring and protection against known and unknown malware threats. Active Protection works inside the Windows kernel, watching for malware and stopping it before it has a chance to execute on a user's system.
Active Protection incorporates three methods to protect your users:
Signature matching comparing a file for an exact match against VIPRE's definition database Heuristic analysis, which looks at the internal characteristics of a file to determine the likelihood that it is malware Behavioral analysis, observing the actual actions of a program to determine if it is possibly malware
The configurable dashboard gives you a centralized, policy-driven malware management console with multiple methods of deployment that work!
VIPRE Enterprise supports multiple methods of agent deployment to allow you flexibility in how agents are pushed to your users' systems. Within the Admin Console, an agent deployment wizard helps you select a deployment option and assists you with your deployment configuration. (Silent push install, MSI file, AD Policy based on OU's, IP range and machine lists).
Policy-based management
VIPRE Enterprise has sophisticated policy creation and management functionality that gives you the flexibility to control scheduling of quick scans and deep scans, set scan options (including scanning of known locations, whether to scan cookies, and whether to scan running processes), and allow specific threats from the database.
Flexible Reporting
VIPRE Enterprise's reporting features make it easy for you to schedule and customize its library of reports. A report scheduler allows you to easily schedule any report to run at a designated time with the ability to email reports to specified users; simplifying report distribution to management.
Resource Usage
Old-style antivirus products have stacked layer upon layer of engines, and created bloatware in the process. See VIPRE's low impact on system resources compared to other enterprise products (Nov 2008 test).
