Anti-Virus

Everyone needs protection against viruses. We have an internet based solution that stops email viruses and Spam before it even gets into your network.

We also recommend that you have Anti-virus software installed on every server and computer on your network. One of the key aspects to managing Anti-Virus software is ensuring that the virus definitions are kept up to date. If you have a network (even a small one) you will benefit from an integrated and managed solution.

We are official resellers of Sophos, Kaspersky and AVG, although we are familiar with installing and troubleshooting all major vendors' software.

Many viruses now get into computer networks via web pages that your users browse, so for larger networks its also recommended that you prevent viruses from getting in through your internet gateway, by installing a filtering solution.

Anti-Spyware

Spyware is not the same as a virus. Generally, it's not malicious, but it is a nuisance, and it's an invasion of privacy. It also uses up valuable resources on your network, so its costs you money.

Spyware installs itself on your computer when you visit certain websites, and leaves information on your computer that tracks your internet surfing habits, to enable targeted marketing campaigns.

There are various solutions. We can clean your computers of spyware, or better still, we can prevent it from getting infected in the first place. Again, you may benefit from a managed solution, and these days it can be managed alongside your anti-virus software.
