ESET NOD32 Antivirus Integrated with M+Guardian Firewall Delivers Proactive
Threat Protection at the Gateway
SALT LAKE CITY-NOVELL BRAINSHARE 2007, Booth # 705, March 19, 2007-From the BrainShare conference, ESET, the leader in proactive threat protection, and Messaging Architects, a company specializing in the development of Email Security and Risk Management Applications, today announced they have entered into an OEM relationship. Under terms of the agreement, Messaging Architects has integrated ESET NOD32 Antivirus software into Messaging Architects’ M+Guardian Extreme Email Firewall. The combined solution allows businesses using the M+Guardian firewall to benefit from ESET’s award-winning proactive detection capabilities at the gateway to block malware before it can infect the organization’s corporate email system.
The companies also announced that Messaging Architects is now an ESET North American Gold reseller and is marketing NOD32 software for the desktop through its channel management program.
"ESET offers one of the most respected anti-malware solutions that has set dozens of ‘in the wild’ tests and performance records, and is the ideal complement for the M+Guardian firewall," said Michael Mastine, director of product management at Messaging Architects. “Together, these solutions will ensure Messaging Architects’ clients continue to receive the best protection at the highest throughput rates."
"This OEM deal allows M+Guardian users to benefit from the power of NOD32 and its advanced heuristics protection against emerging forms of malware," said Rick Moy, vice president of marketing, ESET, LLC. "We’re pleased to partner with Messaging Architects and look forward to extending the reach of NOD32 to Novell GroupWise and NetMail, recently acquired by Messaging Architects."
Benefits of NOD32 and M+Guardian Integration:
- Provides comprehensive defense against Internet-borne threats, including viruses, Trojans and other forms of malware in real-time at the gateway
- Leverages ESET’s patented advanced heuristics technology to combat emerging forms of malware, offering superior protection that is not dependent on signature updates
- NOD32 matches M+Guardian’s speed, scalability and overall performance for the fastest firewall throughput rates and best end-user experience
High-performance, low-impact ESET NOD32 Antivirus software offers comprehensive enterprise-class protection in a product designed to automatically update behind-the-scenes without impacting other applications, so end users always have the most current protection available. ESET NOD32 Antivirus version 2.7 utilizes ThreatSense® technology, a sophisticated detection system based on advanced heuristics, to proactively identify previously unknown viruses, Trojans, spyware, rootkits and phishing attacks in real time. ThreatSense is built into NOD32’s single scanning engine to provide comprehensive protection so users do not need to rely on additional point solutions for spyware and adware protection.
