F-Secure Anti-Virus Client Security 6.00

Viruses and their variants are increasing by a factor of 10 new viruses a day. Spyware, adware and viruses are all tools directed by commercial and even criminal organisations to generate increasingly sophisticated, targeted attacks. Add to this the activities of a workforce that wants to take full advantage of modern technology and IT security management can be stretched to breaking point.

F-Secure has released a new major version of its flagship products, F-Secure Anti-Virus Client Security 6 and F-Secure Policy Manager 6. This combination goes beyond the standard endpoint security integration of virus protection, desktop firewall, spyware protection and network quarantine by introducing proactive features to protect company desktops and laptops against zero-day threats.

This new comprehensive solution maintains the highest level of protection no matter how people use their computers and networks. And while the protection level adapts to users behaviour, it’s good to remember that the administrators are still able to maintain control with a clear overview of the status of network protection.


--Unique features

* Intercepting threats in all traffic, including POP, IMAP, SMTP and HTTP
* Network Quarantine to isolate computers with non-compliant security regardless of the location where they connect to network
* Active application control which collects the list of used applications in the network for centralized policy creation
* Integrated virus outbreak alert with monitoring of protection status in the network


--Features supporting Behavior Adaptive Security

* Automatic security level change when the laptop of a roaming user is connected to a network outside the corporate premises
* Recognizing suspicious activities with system monitoring
* Active application control
* Global update fail-over for protection in case of local system failures
* Finding known threats, no matter how they enter (file system, network traffic)
* Network Quarantine to isolate computers with both Cisco Network Admission Control and Internet Quarantine[

You're using RC2, v6.0.0.11251 is the final version

 

WOW there is http scaner

 

I know that F-Secure's AV is considered to be very good, but can those of you who are using the Client Security suite provide your opinions about its firewall and anti-spyware?

One question - Suppose I own F-Secure Client Security v5, then do I get a free upgrade to v6? or do I have to pay?

 

It's free, you get all F-Secure upgrades for free as long your license is valid

 

Even if I have the home version of F-Secure?

 

I don't believe so Firecat... As far as I can tell, you get a 1-year (renewable) license with each of their products and (during your license period) can only update to the latest version of the specific products you now have a license to use!

 

So if I buy FSAV 2005, I need to pay to upgrade to FSAV 2006?

 

No, that's not what I meant to convey. Using your example, you would be able to upgrade (at no charge) to FSAV 2006 if it's released during the time that you still have an unexpired license for FSAV 2005.

What I intended to convey was that you can not upgrade (free of charge) from one product to a different product and certainly not from a home product to a corp product (e.g., from FSAV/FSIS 2005 to FSCS 6).

 

F-Secure use the Ad-Aware, so its detection on Spyware isn't nothing special...

The antivirus is very good, but its resources are unacceptable...

 

Hmm, what do you consider unacceptable?

 

The RAM and CPU usage by F-Secure...

 

Yeah, I realize that VC, but what I meant was can you specify excessive in terms of the amount of RAM/CPU utilization?

And on a comparative basis, is it more excessive than KAV for example?

 

I don't remember specifically, but I tried, in May, the F-Secure Internet Security 2005 and uninstall it immediately because of what I have said...

On my system, is much more excessive than KAV...

 

I had f-secure internet security 2005 on this comp for about two hours before I uninstalled it. The resource drain is extremely excessive. I am running a P4 3.0 processor and one gig of ram and it still drug my system down where as Kav doesn't drag this comp at all.

 

Whoa! ... that sure doesn't speak well for F-Secure.

 

Yep that is what I thought

 

I never had such big problems with F-Secure... I've an AMD 2200+ and only 512mb of Ram... Although I've to admit that it seems that F-Secure runs better on AMD systems

On my machine KAV drags much more then F-Secure does, so it's different of every system
