Anti-Virus Second Opinion Solution

Benefits

Using Kaspersky Anti-Virus S.O.S. to perform regular additional on-demand scans of the workstations will help you to maintain a high level of protection from malicious programs on your network.

Kaspersky Anti-Virus S.O.S. is different from traditional antivirus solutions in that it does not include a real-time (on-access) protection module; thus, it will not cause system conflicts with other antivirus software already installed on your network.

Kaspersky Anti-Virus S.O.S. can be installed and managed using Kaspersky Administration Kit, a powerful and flexible centralized administration tool.

Installation of Kaspersky Anti-Virus S.O.S. does not require uninstalling any existing antivirus products. You can then compare your current antivirus protection and a new solution and decide whether replacing your antivirus protection is necessary.

Since Kaspersky Administration Kit provides all of the necessary tools to do so, migrating to a fully functional solution (e.g., Kaspersky Work Space Security) will take little time and will not interfere with users' work.

Protection from malicious programs

Kaspersky Anti-Virus S.O.S. scans the file system on a workstation for malicious programs on demand by the system administrator or on schedule.

The program’s interface enables the administrator to select the level of protection, thereby establishing a balance between program performance and the quality of protection.

The administrator can choose which file system areas (e.g. critical areas or start-up objects) or objects should be scanned.

Objects recognized as suspicious can be moved to a quarantine folder, preventing infection of the computer. These objects can later be scanned using an updated set of antivirus databases, and then disinfected or deleted.

A protection system based on Kaspersky Anti-Virus Second Opinion Solution can be deployed on corporate networks of any size and complexity using Kaspersky Administration Kit. The antivirus solution can be managed either locally or remotely.
