timeout of archive scans.

threats that hide from plain sight.

postponed when the computer is running on battery power.

KEY FEATURES  ESET SMART SECURITY 
ESET SysInspector™ integration Administrators will love our advanced diagnostic tool for taking
“deep-dive” snapshots of systems. Files and processes are color coded
in scan logs to make it easy for IT admins to identify potential threats
in the system.
Uninstall password protection Password protection that prevents ESET Smart Security from being
uninstalled by unauthorized employees or visitors.
Extended email client support Native support for Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Outlook Express,
Mozilla Thunderbird *, Opera *, Windows Live Mail and Windows
Mail makes messaging security simple. POP3 and IMAP protocols
support delivers the same protection to other email clients.
ESET self-defense and HIPS ESET Smart Security has built-in technology to prevent malicious
software from corrupting or disabling it. Unauthorized attempts
to modify your OS or applications are actively blocked through a
combination of advanced behavioral analysis and network filtering
that monitors your system processes, files and registry keys.
Removable media access control Protects against infections from USB drives, floppies, CDs and DVDs.
Firewall profiles and trusted
network zones
Easy-to-configure firewall profiles allow administrators to define
firewall policy for dierent environments. Automatic switching of
firewall profiles can be triggered by trusted zone authentication
or identification by local network configurations, applying the
appropriate firewall policies at all times.*
Trusted zone authentication Identify trusted network zones by network configurations (a
configurable combination of host/DNS/DHCP server IP address,
wireless SSID, connection profile, etc.) or securely authenticate into a
network using ESET Authentication Server.*
Support for Cisco Network
Admission Control
Regulatory compliance is simplified with native support for Cisco
NAC.
Mirror updating Mirror servers make it easy to manage distribution of signature
database updates to all ESET products within the network, saving
you valuable time and bandwidth.

KEY FEATURES  ESET REMOTE ADMINISTRATOR
Group management Avoid unregistered clients by synchronizing group structure with
Active Directory. Simplify filtering and reporting processes and
build notification and policy rules with static or parametric groups.
Parametric groups update dynamically to include clients that meet
specified conditions, taking the work out of searching for endpoints
that require attention.
Simplified remote installation Close security gaps and free your IT sta from tedium with improved
searching for unregistered clients and create tasks to push install
clients in parallel without human intervention.
Centralized quarantine
management
Restore or delete quarantined objects from the console based on
specified criteria or exclude them from further scanning. Having
top-down visibility ensures consistency in quarantine policy across
all endpoints.
Policy management Define and enforce policies consistently throughout your network.
Policy Manager makes it easy to import/export, apply, inherit and
merge policies in a variety of ways. Time-saving replication policies
allow multiple ESET Remote Administrator servers to synchronize
eciently in wide area network deployments.
Cross-platform management Remotely manage from a single console all endpoints running
current and previous versions of ESET Smart Security and ESET
NOD® Antivirus for Windows, as well as upcoming releases of ESET
NOD Antivirus  for Mac and Linux and next-generation mobile
security products.
Notification management Notifications are highly customizable and allow for monitoring of a
broad range of incidents (status of clients, possible virus outbreak or
network attack, new client event, finished task, license expiration
or server errors and warnings). Notification actions include email,
SNMP Trap, launch on server and log entry.
