 Everyone knows that a workstation without Anti-Virus is a ticking time bomb just waiting to go off. What everyone doesn't know however is that just because Anti-Virus software is installed, doesn't mean it is effectively protecting your system.
There are two types of Anti-Virus clients, managed and unmanaged. The later, unmanaged clients, represent the majority of businesses. What this means is that the Anti-Virus client is installed on a workstation and it's status and configuration are left entirely up to the user who is logged onto the computer. This means that if a user is so inclined they can disable the Anti-Virus protection, or prevent it from scanning certain objects. As you can imagine this defeats the purpose of the software all together.
Managed Anti-Virus clients are a requirement for any business with multiple workstations. These types of clients connect to a central management server that allows for a fine tuned configuration of the settings on all connected workstations. Meaning it is possible to guarantee that the client is not only running properly, but also effectively performing scheduled scans, and updating regularly.
