Antivirus software has now become part of the operating system. The first application that is normally installed on a new computer is and should be the antivirus software. Traditionally, in the corporate environment, the “server” version of the software is installed on the server and each end user computer is installed with the “client” version of the Antivirus. The server version designed for not only protecting the server against viruses but also to manage the antivirus software installed on the end user computers. Although this model works fine, the hosted antivirus model where all the antivirus clients are managed through web is a much better solution. The advantages of hosted antivirus solutions are mainly cost effectiveness and the centralized web based management. In large deployments specifically, it becomes difficult to manage multiple antivirus servers. Hosted antivirus has excellent scalability and the managing 1000 antivirus clients are as easy as managing 100 or 10 antivirus clients. Cloud IT can not only deploy the hosted version of antivirus software very easily but also manage all your antivirus client software installed on all your computers centrally.
