Product Features

Unparalleled, proactive antivirus threat protection
The McAfee antivirus scan engine stops every type of virus and malicious code threat, including "traditional" viruses, email worms, Internet worms, DDoS (distributed denial-of-service) attacks, backdoor and remote access Trojans, and zombies. Using technology that drills down into compressed data, GroupShield is also able to find hidden threats buried in .zip and other compressed file types.

Proactive antivirus protection is delivered through advanced heuristics and generic detection, which allow GroupShield to protect - in advance - against new, unseen viruses and other threats.

Both users and the organization are protected from the effects of inappropriate content with customizable sample rules pre-set to block content such as profanity, racism, bigotry, and more. Content policies can be adapted and applied to different user groups or departments, and can also be localized for global organizations. To further mitigate legal liability, administrators can add message disclaimers to the header or footer of an email message.
