Need opinions on Network Security software
I run a network at an upstate Hospice. We are currently using Sophos End
Point Security as our AV/firewall/etc. security software. I recently upgrade it to Enterprise Console 4. I'm not thrilled with their handling of the firewall management from the console. Overall, I'm happy with the program, though. We are due for renewing the support contract in November, so I want to start looking at alternatives to evaluate. Obvious candidates are Symantec, McAfee, Trend Micro. I'd appreciate feedback on these and any others folks may use. I want to be able to manage the entire thing from a single console. Firewall configuration should not be available to the end user. I want to be able to push out updates and end point scans. An important issue is the size of updates. Many of my mobile users don't stay connected long (sometimes as little as 5-10 minutes). Also, impact of a scan on system performance needs to be minimal. Thanks in advance.... -- Regards, Hank Arnold Microsoft MVP Windows Server - Directory Services http://it.toolbox.com/blogs/personal-pc-assistant/ |
