IS Anti-Virus (Continued)

Benefits

• High Levels of Redundancy: The IS Anti-virus environment resides within IS' secure, managed hosting facilities, and is built with high levels of redundancy to provide a robust offsite anti virus protection solution.
• Fully Outsourced Solution: The IS Anti-Virus solution is a fully managed, hosted solution that is supported 24/7.  The solutions will eliminate unwanted virus, ‘peer to peer’ and IM traffic at an ISP level so that valuable Internet bandwidth can be optimised and a larger amount of frustration can be eliminated.  
• IS Anti-Virus Reporting and Monitoring: The advance reporting structure provides high levels of transparency into the IS Anti-Virus solution, enabling statistical reporting on virus activity. This reporting is delivered via IS’ web base Customer Zone portal. All report logs are stored for 60 days and reports can be scheduled to be delivered in .pdf format via e-mail. 
• Two Tier Approach: By eliminating all virus traffic at IS, not only can a client optimise bandwidth, but they can radically reduce the load placed on the onsite anti virus infrastructure and resources and provide a cost effective double layer of Anti Virus protection. 
• Economies of Scale: The IS Anti-Virus environment is built to very high levels of infrastructure redundancy, this type of high availability environment is extremely expensive for a single client to deploy, involving multiple devices and technologies. However, by leveraging off IS, this type of robust, high service level and integrity infrastructure deployment can be brought down to affordable levels.
