Doctor Web — a Russian anti-virus vendor and leader on the Russian
Internet-services market — has released a new version of Dr.Web
AV-Desk software that allows service providers to deliver anti-virus
and anti-spam protection to their subscribers. The new version of
Dr.Web AV-Desk features cutting-edge detection and curing technologies
for neutralization of latest Internet threats and offers a wide range
of subscription packages for home users and small and medium
businesses that can choose a desired level of provided security
according to their demands.

Dr.Web AV-Desk appeared on the Russian anti-virus market in 2007 and
was deployed by many companies all over Russia and in other CIS
countries. The number of service providers that now use the
Internet-service has already exceeded 80 and is growing steadily (at
least one new service provider deploys Dr.Web AV-Desk once a week).

Innovations implemented in the new version of Dr.Web AV-Desk make it
even more attractive to customers and service providers.

Using the grouping option service providers can deliver the
information security services to a larger number of small businesses
that require reliable and user-friendly security software even during
the economic recession. A company subscribing for the service gets
anti-virus protection for all computers in its offices in the shortest
possible time and at a lower cost compared to the cost of conventional
anti-virus licenses.

The new features allow providers to offer the service as three basic
subscription packages (Dr.Web Classic, Dr.Web Standard, and Dr.Web
Premium) and develop an unlimited number of own promotional
subscription packages. Dr.Web AV-Desk is a universal construction set
for creation of various subscription packages so that a customer can
choose an affordable package that meets his requirements to anti-virus
security.

Technical specialists of service providers can take advantage of new
administration opportunities. The Web Administration Interface allows
a system administrator to monitor and administer an anti-virus network
remotely. The notification system that enables sending messages to
selected users or groups of users may help administrator and support
engineers to alert users about virus outbreaks or other critical
events.

New features of Dr.Web AV-Desk help providers monitor status of
updating servers and ensure that subscribers use the latest version of
anti-virus software.

The Internet-service software has become even easier to install. Now
Dr.Web AV-Desk supports a wider range of databases, has improved load
distribution system and a new list of supported server operating
systems including FreeBSD 7.1, Fedora Core 10 and other Unix-family OS
with Glibc 2.9

The Dr.Web anti-virus installed on computers of subscribers
incorporates all advanced features of the fifth version of the Dr.Web
software: the optimized anti-virus engine providing lower CPU usage,
the improved non-signature technology Origins Tracing detecting
malicious programs unknown to anti-virus, a huge number of supported
archivers and packers and state of the art anti-rootkit technologies.
Dr.Web software offered to subscribers also includes the HTTP monitor
called SpIDer Gate and Parental control that ensure virus-free
web-surfing and block access to specified network and local resources,
removable data-storage and network devices, floppy drives. Dr.Web
SelfPROtect protects files and directories of the anti-virus from
unauthorized or occasional deletion or modification by a user or
malicious program.

“The release of the new version of Dr.Web AV-Desk is a significant
event. Our anti-virus software provided as a service is already
available to hundreds of thousands of users in Russia and abroad”,
Boris Sharov, the director general of Doctor Web said. “Flexibility of
subscription packages and a variety of new features implemented in
Dr.Web AV-Desk make reliable anti-virus protection affordable to home
users and small and medium businesses that have suffered heavy losses
because of the financial crisis. The new features of the fifth version
of Dr.Web software make the anti-virus an impenetrable barrier in the
way of malware lurking in the World Wide Web”.
