Network-based Anti-Virus technology can prevent viruses from penetrating networks and infecting PCs, workstations and servers. The advantage of AV scanning at the network gateway is that viruses can be stopped before damage can be done to internal computers and other network elements.

Intoto has integrated two types of network AV mechanisms--Inline Scanning and Enforcements. Intoto’s Inline AV scanning technology provides protection at the network edge, preventing malicious viruses from entering the trusted network. Virus definition files in the gateway are automatically updated to ensure that the best protection is available. Intoto’s AV Enforcement technology ensures that all PCs and servers are protected by client-side AV software that is IT department-approved, has been updated with the latest scan engine and signature database files and prevents network access if any policy is violated.
