Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Microsoft ISA Server and Forefront TMG

Effective Anti-Malware Protection

• Real-Time Scanning
  Kaspersky Anti-Virus 8.5 for Microsoft ISA Server and Forefront TMG detects and removes a vast range of different types of malware that may be present within data passing through Microsoft ISA Server and Forefront TMG. It also scans archived and packed files in almost any format.
• Scanning of Outgoing Traffic and Incoming Traffic
  In addition to scanning incoming traffic, the application also scans outgoing traffic – to ensure that malicious objects are not included in either incoming or outgoing traffic. By scanning traffic travelling in both directions, the application helps companies to safeguard their systems and their reputations.
• Scanning of HTTP(S), FTP, SMTP and POP3 Traffic to Published Servers
  Kaspersky Anti-Virus 8.5 for Microsoft ISA Server and Forefront TMG scans traffic entering published servers – for example, when a web interface is used to access corporate mail.
• Support for HTTPS (Forefront TMG only)
  The application scans data that is transferred via HTTPS – allowing control of protected connections.
• Support for VPN connections
  The application monitors traffic passing through VPN connections that are established using Microsoft ISA Server or Forefront TMG.
• Backup
  Copies of infected, damaged and suspicious objects are saved to a backup storage area – so it’s possible to restore objects that have been erroneously tagged as suspicious. This is useful for data transmitted via HTTP/FTP and objects sent via SMTP. With a wide range of search parameters, the application makes it easy to search for an object in the backup storage.

Flexible Administration

• New! Integration with Enterprise Management Server
  The application fully integrates with native Microsoft ISA/Forefront TMG Enterprise Edition infrastructure and leverages the existing management scheme.
• Management via MMC
  The administration console allows local or remote management of the application. The console has an easy-to-use, intuitive graphical interface.
• Flexible Policy Management
  The application offers advanced capabilities for configuring and managing traffic processing policies during scanning. Using the policy management tools, administrators can configure different data scanning rules for different servers, computers, IP address ranges, domain names and subnets. Administrators can also create lists of trusted sites and configure other exemptions – to tailor the application’s performance to meet specific business needs and to comply with corporate security policy.
• Detailed Reports and Notifications
  Detailed reports and an event log help administrators to monitor application performance and the antivirus protection status of Microsoft ISA Server and Forefront TMG. Standard ISA alerts are used for notification about important events. Administrators can select the type of notification from the standard options available in Windows – and can also decide how often and for what period of time the reports are generated.
• Control over Performance
  Administrators can measure the application’s performance – and its compatibility with other server software – by using the standard Windows (Performance Monitor) tools, to which the application’s own counters are added.
• Antivirus Database Updates
  In addition to on-demand updates, databases can also be automatically updated from Kaspersky Lab servers over the Internet or from the customer’s own preset local servers. The optimised update process reduces the time spent on administration and helps to minimise external traffic.
