WatchGuard Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: WGRD), a leading provider of network security solutions worldwide, announced WatchGuard Gateway AntiVirus for E-mail for the Firebox X line of security appliances. The unique deep application inspection capability integrated into WatchGuard security appliances examines traffic for protocol anomalies to determine if the content is malicious and blocks threats before they reach the anti-virus engine to avoid unnecessary processing overhead. If no threat is detected, the data is passed to ClamAV where it is analysed for viral content. Visit http://www.watchguard.com/press/releases/wg294.asp for more information. (0 comments)
