Symantec Client Security provides integrated antivirus, firewall, and intrusion detection capabilities managed through a central console to provide better and proactive protection against today's evolving blended threats, such as Blaster. The solution provides critical end-point security to prevent intrusions from entering or spreading from connected and non-connected remote and mobile users, as well as from critical systems.
Enhanced functionality offers more protection than antivirus-only solutions, protecting client systems from unwanted network intrusions and hackers, as well as from viruses, Trojans, and worms. Multiple security technologies interacting with one another ensure coordinated response to maximize containment and recovery, and enable advanced client security policy management. Location awareness enables the client firewall to adjust policies based on the machine's location. Expanded threat detection detects unauthorized programs such as spyware and adware.
