firewalls constantly monitors the version of the virus definition file and automatically triggers download and
installation of new virus definition files to each user’s computer. In addition, the SonicWALL restricts each
user’s access to the Internet until they are protected, therefore acting as an enforcer of the company’s
virus protection policy. This new approach ensures the most current version of the virus definition file is
installed and active on each PC on the network, preventing a rogue user from disabling the virus
protection and potentially exposing the entire organization to an outbreak.
Alert! You must purchase an Anti-Virus subscription to enforce Anti-Virus through the SonicWALL.
