• SSL-encrypted malware
• Browser based file downloads that bypass existing virus scanning defenses
• Malware, spyware, trojans, downloaders, ‘bots, and root-kits

Traditional, Web anti-virus gateways often lack scalability and performance for HTTP, HTTPS and FTP scanning, leaving desktops to defend themselves. The ProxyAV 510 and ProxyAV 810 combined with a ProxySG Appliance provides a proven record of enterprise robustness for effective virus scanning, plus complete visibility and control of enterprise Web communications.

The ProxyAV 510 is a purpose-built solution designed for quick integration with the ProxySG 810 for deployment in medium enterprise or distributed environments. Heuristic trojan scanning can also prevent many spyware variants. It provides fast, low-latency scanning performance and defense in depth via a choice of anti-virus engines from Kaspersky, Sophos, McAfee, and Panda.
