Protecting your customer's business critical data from natural disasters, data corruption and human error is not only about comprehensive data storage and recovery capabilities. The threat could come from one of today's many viruses or worms and would result in a total disruption any business, seriously impacting your customers' ability to do business. Also their critical backed-up data becomes worthless if it contains viruses! With the powerful features of eTrust Antivirus' dual scanning technology and BrightStor ARCserve Backup's fast backup and recovery, CA's Protection Suite ensures that security and performance requirements are equally met. Storage administrators no longer need to disable antivirus functions, which may slow down the backup processes by rescanning the same files each time a backup is run. With the Protection Suite virus-free files are appropriately "tagged" to prevent unnecessary re-scanning. What's more, with CA's eTrust Antivirus solution, your customers receive peace of mind knowing that the virus signatures are updated daily at no cost, which ensures that their network is protected against even the latest viruses.
