Symantec AntiVirus Scan Engine detects and protects against viruses, worms, and Trojan horses in all major file types, including mobile code and compressed file formats. Employing award-winning Symantec technologies that are optimized for speed, the solution imposes minimal resource demands on existing network infrastructure. With Symantec's NAVEX and LiveUpdate technologies, virus engines and definitions are updated and deployed automatically with no interruption in virus scanning. To ensure highly scalable virus protection, the solution easily accommodates growing traffic volumes with automatic load balancing across multiple servers.

Symantec AntiVirus Scan Engine enables third-party software and hardware vendors to easily integrate virus scanning and repair capabilities into services such as email gateways, firewalls, network-attached storage, and data caching.

Symantec AntiVirus Scan Engine can operate on the same server as the third-party software or hardware, or on a separate server, allowing it to be deployed in heterogeneous environments, including those running on the Microsoft 2000, Sun Solaris, and Red Hat Linux platforms. Backed by Symantec Security Response, the industry's largest dedicated team of virus experts, Symantec AntiVirus Scan Engine is an effective solution for detecting and eliminating viruses.
