Provides protection for PCs at home or in the office
running Microsoft Windows NT / 2000 / 2003 / XP.
NOTE:
Standard versus Administrator version: the Administrator
version has additional functionalities. It is meant to
be used in the LAN / WAN environment as it supports
creation of copies of the update files so called
"mirror". The Administrator version requires a purchase
of a Corporate / Multiuser license.
NOD32 Control Center
The NOD32 Control Center is the central management
module. It provides access to the various features,
tools and settings and fully integrates all installed
system components. These are categorized into four
different sections, each of which can be expanded into
an easy-to-use directory tree style system. For
increased security, the key settings can be password
protected to prevent unauthorized access and
modification.
Key Features Include
- Centralized management of the resident antivirus
modules and filters.
- Intuitive directory tree style system for easy
access to:
- Automatic, internet/LAN Update module
- Centralized system of log files for all
installed modules
- AMON - resident on-access monitor
- NOD32 - on-demand scanner
- IMON - Internet monitor - scans e-mails incoming
via the POP3 protocol
- EMON - complementary e-mail scanner module -
scans e-mails incoming via MAPI interface (details
below)
- Flexible task scheduler and planning module
- Quarantine directory
- Key system information
Automatic Update module
- Supports frequent incremental updates and
upgrades of the executable components.
- Most updates are performed ‘on-the-fly’ (no
reboot is required).
- Small incremental update of the virus database
minimizes network congestion and download times.
- Allows flexible scheduling of updates and
selection of various update profiles.
- Checks for updates of the system at user-defined
intervals or even upon the occurrence of a
predefined event.
- Provides intelligent update options for
computers on dial-up access.
- Supports proxy-servers (Basic and NTLM
authentication).
- Provides authentication of the origin of
downloaded update files using a digital signature
technique.
- Supports updating from a local site without
accessing the Internet, such as from a server within
a LAN.
- The upgrade system can be configured to reflect
a multi-level hierarchy and/or other needs of a
large company or organization.
- Creates updates to a floppy or CD for PCs that
are not connected to the network.
- Configuration settings can be distributed to
local workstations from an administrator’s computer.
- Provides the option to use a configuration file
to set system parameters across the network during
initial installation and/or subsequent updates.
- Supports ‘silent mode’ on end-user workstations:
notification messages may be forwarded to an
administrator only.
- Allows the settings to be password protected.
Centralized Log file system provides
information on:
- On-demand scanner results
- Relevant events (e.g. performed updates,
executed tasks, etc.)
- Infiltrations detected by resident modules and
filters
NOD32 Scanning Modules
All the scanning modules of NOD32 system (on-access
monitors, filters, on-demand scanners, e-mail server
solutions, gateway filters, API and DLL modules, etc.)
use the same sophisticated scanning engine across all
the supported platforms.
NOD32 Scanning Engine Key Features
- The highest detection and scanning rate
performance.
- Unprecedented heuristic analysis capable of
exposing DOS, Boot, Win32, macro, script and other
viruses and worms in the wild.
- Built in powerful virtual emulator enables
detection of the most sophisticated polymorphic and
metamorphic viruses.
- Virus detection in compressed or protected
executable files, such as UPX, AsPack, FSG, Petite,
Neolite, ExeStealth, yoda’s Crypter, PECompact,
Pklite, Lzexe, Diet, Exepack, CPAV .
- Support of many archive formats, e.g. ZIP, RAR,
ARJ, LZH, LHA, CAB, CHM, TAR, GZIP.
- Detection of viruses in encrypted, password
protected databases and documents.
- Use of heuristic and algorithmic methods to
clean viruses.
- Cleaning of macro viruses and restoration of the
documents to original format.
- Recovery of the most important system areas
(functions) in the event of an infection.
- Storage of infected files in a safe format (not
allowing execution) into the quarantine.
- Search speed is maximized through associative,
multilevel cache and low-level code optimizations.
- Use of very fast single-point samples and CRCs
for precise detection.
- Use of very few system resources.
- Disinfection/quarantining of the files
automatically, on-the-fly.
- Full support of UNICODE in Windows NT / 2000 /
2003 / XP.
AMON
AMON (Antivirus MONitor) is an on-access
(memory-resident) scanner for Windows 95 / 98 / ME / NT
/ 2000 / 2003 / XP. Even though it is at full alert, it
works silently in the background and you will probably
not even notice its presence until it denies access to
an infected file and pops up a warning window.
Key Features
- Utilizes the advanced NOD32 scanning engine.
- Prevents infected files from being opened,
executed and warns upon their creation.
- Automatic execution on system startup.
- Scans floppy boot sector upon access and during
shutdown.
- Sends notification of infections or errors over
network or via e-mail using the SMTP protocol.
- Supports multiple Terminal Server environments.
- Scans also mapped network disks.
IMON & EMON
IMON (Internet MONitor), is the second NOD32 resident
scanner. It runs on the Winsock level and scans internet
traffic (e-mail) incoming via the POP3 protocol. IMON
replaces the NOD32’s for POP3 filter (known from the
former NOD32 version) with enhanced email protection.
Almost no configuration is required, which is great for
non-technical users.
EMON (Email MONitor), a complementary resident module,
scans e-mails incoming via MAPI interface. MAPI
interface is used e.g. in the following e-mail clients:
Microsoft Outlook 95, 97, 2000 (not Outlook Express) in
the Corporate mode and in MS Exchange. MS Outlook
2002(Office XP) and Outlook 2003 are not suported in the
current version of EMON. MAPI interface is used also
when receiving e-mails from the Microsoft Exchange Mail
Server via the Exchange protocol.
IMPORTANT NOTE: When the MAPI Interface is not used on
the computer EMON is not needed and therefore will NOT
be installed. The e-mails incoming via the POP3 protocol
will be checked by IMON
NOD32 for Microsoft Windows (on-demand scanner)
Provides on-demand protection for computers at home or
in the office, from Microsoft Windows 95/ 98/ ME
workstations to Microsoft Windows NT/2000/2003/XP,
Windows Powered servers.
Key Features
- Easy-to-use graphical user interface with an
alternative, command-line execution.
- Integrates into Windows Explorer’s context menu,
allowing quick selection of a scanning target using
the right mouse button.
- Scans operating memory and check its own
integrity.
- Cleans, removes and quarantines infected
objects.
- Removes infiltrations from files that are locked
for writing (e.g., loaded DLL file).
- Removes viruses, worms and Trojans that are
running.
- Scans Outlook and Outlook Express e-mail
databases.
- Can be scheduled and executed using various
users’ profiles.
- Contains a detailed, interactive on-line help
