Virus Protection & Content FilteringSECURITY TECHNOLOGY
Symantec AntiVirus™/Filtering for Domino™
Comprehensive, automated virus protection for Lotus Notes®/Domino databases
Symantec AntiVirus/Filtering for Domino provides reliable, unobtrusive protection for Lotus Notes/
Domino databases, offering administrators the most comprehensive, automatic protection available.
Its efficient, incremental scanning and repair of file attachments and embedded OLE objects in Notes
mail and database documents keeps databases free from viruses while minimizing impact on network
performance. All operations are performed in the native Notes format, making it easy to use. And
because it doesn’t require administrators to re-install the scan engine when new virus definitions are
issued, it significantly reduces total cost of ownership.
√ Provides proactive content filtering
With its patented Dynamic Document Review™providing policy-based filtering of undesirable content,
Symantec AntiVirus/Filtering for Domino helps organizations promote user productivity and preserve
network bandwidth. By enabling proactive security, it provides protection against spam and attacks
like the Love Bug outbreak, allowing administrators to automatically block email with suspicious or
inappropriate attachment names, subject lines, or extensions. This maximizes administrative response
to new virus outbreaks and reduces the potential for network congestion or overload.
√ New features
• Lotus Notes/Domino 6.0 support – ensures reliable virus protection and content filtering as an
organization migrates to the latest Notes technology.
• Utilizes Symantec Enterprise Security Architecture (SESA)*– allows logging and forwarding of
antivirus and content filtering events to SESA, which provides increased flexibility and helps to
simplify security management.
• More flexible content filtering – increases protection of an organization’s proprietary information
and provides more flexible server group management.
• Improved scheduling* – gives more control and flexibility when scheduling events
√ Supports easy, flexible administration
Symantec AntiVirus/Filtering for Domino integrates seamlessly with the Notes environment. Operations
such as email alerting, event logging, documentation, and configuration are all done using the Notes
client. Installation is so quick and simple that it can be up and running in minutes. Organization-wide
configuration, updating, and alerting can all be handled through a central settings database.
To meet the specific needs of any Notes environment, Symantec AntiVirus/Filtering for Domino comes
with replication-friendly databases which make it easy to configure protection locally or remotely.
Administrators can set different configurations for different servers; choose real-time, on-demand, or
scheduled scanning; have infected files repaired, quarantined, or deleted; and centrally manage the
automated retrieval and rapid deployment of virus definitions. Symantec AntiVirus/ Filtering for Domino
also generates a comprehensive set of management reports, which provide a wealth of useful data that
can be viewed, printed, and exported in most popular report formats.
