PR: Covalent Embeds Industry-Leading McAfee Virus Security in Module for the Apache Web Server
Aug 17, 2000, 17 :43 UTC (0 Talkback[s]) (386 reads)

"PRESS RELEASE - McAfee, a Network Associates business, today announced that Covalent Technologies, Inc., the leading provider of Apache Web server products and services, will embed the market-leading McAfee VirusScan engine in a new module for the open-source Apache Web server platform. As a result, Web administrators can equip the Apache Web server to scan and stop Internet viruses and malicious code at the Internet gateway before they impact e-business initiatives."

"According to the Netcraft Web server survey, Apache is the Web server platform of choice with more than 62 percent share of the market."

"'By embedding the McAfee VirusScan engine into a virus protection module for Apache, we offer Web administrators leading technology to protect their customers and users from viruses," said Randy Terbush, founder and CTO of Covalent Technologies. "'For the foreseeable future virus attacks will remain a constant danger to end users and adding McAfee technology allows us to further enhance the security of the data delivered via an Apache Web server.'"

"By working with Covalent, McAfee extends its industry leadership to make anti-virus protection a core part of the Internet infrastructure. The McAfee VirusScan engine, in conjunction with Covalent's Web server virus scanning technology, allows Web sites and service providers to ensure the delivery of critical information while protecting customers from the potential damages caused by Internet viruses."

"The McAfee VirusScan engine is used in all products of the McAfee Active Virus Defense suite to insure similar levels of detection at all potential points of entry. The McAfee Active Virus Defense suite is a next generation, easy-to-manage integrated Internet virus security solution that enables e-businesses to centrally manage virus policy, offer customizable updates and configurations, stop email-based virus outbreaks before they occur, and use graphical reporting methods to get a comprehensive view of savings provided by each tier in their anti-virus defense strategy all over the Internet. The McAfee Active Virus Defense line of products is supported by the global research capabilities of McAfee AVERT (Anti-Virus Emergency Response Team), one of the world's leading anti-virus research organizations."
