Anti virus for server?

Hamed

Active Member
Hello,
I have one server (with Windows 2008 Server OS)
Now I want to know should I install esp anti virus and also should I configure sth in on my server?

Do you offer me any esp anti virus ?(Because I want to buy new anti virus)
 
esp : especial ( especially )

I think it would be better that you check dictionary !
 
I've used avast on my personal desktops since 2002 and I'm very happy with them. I also use the linux version of Avast on my servers and run scans often.
 
AVG is best in all. I think your server security is more important than money. You should buy AVG.

AVG is free, but certain not the best. AVG report many false positives, better use CLAM , Free Antivirus for Windows - Open source GPL virus scanner.
 
VIPRE and ClamAV I hear both work well on server OS,
Which one is better?
What do you think about NOD32?

ClamAV is free does it have good update on new virus?

I'd suggest Kaspersky Server Edition, alternatively Avast! Server Edition.

ClamAV has the worst detection rates of any antivirus available, and should be avoided unless you have a specific need for it.
 
I’d like to recommend Avira and NOD32 both are top Antivirus. I am using Avira since 2009 and I am really happy with it. Most of the people use NOD32 for server, so it’s up to you which one you choose between them.
 
For Windows Servers Kaspersky Anti-Virus is best solution. It protects data on servers running under Microsoft Windows from all types of malicious programs. The product was designed specifically for high-performance corporate servers that experience heavy loads.
