Overview
A single piece of malware can spread quickly in a networked environment because it is difficult to quarantine infected users. The more users who share files by way of servers and storage systems, the greater the risk of network damage caused by infected files and of intellectual property theft by data-stealing malware. Also, the continuous expansion of data capacity can make the completion of scheduled scans a time-consuming task for administrators. To effectively protect file storage systems, enterprises need comprehensive, real-time scanning capabilities that take effect as users continuously access files from storage devices on the network.
Trend Micro ServerProtect for Storage 6 safeguards a wide range of networkattached storage systems by detecting and removing viruses and spyware in real time. This comprehensive storage security uses the industry-standard internet content adaptation protocol (ICAP) to complement support for traditional remote procedure call (RPC) protocols. To simplify network protection for Dell EMC™, NetApp, and Hitachi™ Data Systems’ storage systems, ServerProtect for Storage 6 provides automatic, incremental security updates and centralized management of servers via a web-based console.
