1.1 Welcome
Welcome to F-Secure Anti-Virus Linux Server Security.
Computer viruses are one of the most harmful threats to the security of
data on computers. Viruses have increased in number from just a handful
a few years ago to many thousands today. While some viruses are
harmless pranks, other viruses can destroy data and pose a real threat.
The product provides an integrated, out-of-the-box ready security solution
with a strong real-time antivirus and riskware protection and a host
intrusion prevention (HIPS) functionality that provides protection against
unauthorized connection attempts from network, unauthorized system
modifications, userspace and kernel rootkits. The solution can be easily
deployed and managed either using the local graphical user interface or
F-Secure Policy Manager.
F-Secure Policy Manager provides a tightly integrated infrastructure for
defining and distributing security policies and monitoring the security of
different applications from one central location.
1.2 How the Product Works
The product detects and prevents intrusions and protects against
malware. With the default settings, workstations and servers are
protected right after the installation without any time spent configuring the
product.
Protection Against Malware
The product protects the system against viruses and potentially malicious
files.
When user downloads a file from the Internet, for example by clicking a
link in an e-mail message, the file is scanned when the user tries to open
it. If the file is infected, the product protects the system against the
malware.
