Doctor Web — the Russian anti-virus vendor — announces successful
deployment of Dr.Web AV-Desk by the Astra company that provides
Internet to users in the Chelyabninsk region. Now its subscribers can
protect themselves from viruses, Trojans and other malicious programs.
The number of users that subscribe for the anti-virus service to
ensure their virus-free internet-surfing keeps growing. Now the
service is available to subscribers of more than 50 providers in
Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Bulgaria and Estonia.
Four providers in the Chelyabinsk region have already added the Dr.Web
anti-virus to their service portfolios. The Astra company joined them
in February 2009.
“Infection on computers of our subscribers often causes long outages
or significant financial losses due to increased traffic. The
anti-virus service powered by Dr.Web technologies reduces the
probability of getting infected to zero. The statistics and updating
server installed in the local network reduces costs of daily updates
of anti-virus software for a provider and makes them free for
subscribers. Analysis of virus statistics allows us to promptly notify
our customers about vulnerabilities and block sources of infection”,
Sergei Mikheenko, the head of the automation department of Astra said.
