iSecurity Antivirus ICAP Client
Raz-Lee Security has enhanced iSecurity Antivirus with the addition of the ICAP Client. Virus scans tend to be CPU-intensive because they scan millions of possible virus signatures. Using ICAP ensures that your IBM i is always protected without a performance drop. Scan time is faster – by twenty times in some tests. The portion of the IBM i CPU that would have been used for virus scanning becomes available for other purposes. As malicious activity is diagnosed, Antivirus stops the attack, isolates the file and raises an alert.
Key features
