Did you
know that U.S. businesses spent $2.6 billion to
clean up the Code Red virus alone? It is estimated
that PC Viruses cost businesses approximately $55
Billion in damages in 2003. The same calculations in
were done in 2002 and 2001, at $20-30 Billion and
$13 Billion, respectively (Source: Computerworld).
Besides
viruses, there are other growing issues, such as
spam and "spy ware", surreptitious programs that
ride the Internet or other programs into computers
and mine them for private information. Computer
viruses now have shifted from destroying files,
evolving over the years to turn unsecured computers
into "sleeper cell" machines capable of carrying out
the virus writer's commands. Typically, this army of
commandeered machines is used to send out torrents
of e-mail spam messages, unleash digital attacks on
targeted Web sites and, in some cases, host Web
sites that sell everything from vitamins to
pornography. This affects your site as well as
others around the world.
Kenvin Associates can implement an enterprise virus
protection package that incorporates installation of
a virus protection software package, email
protection, automatic updates of virus definitions
and network quarantine in case of failure of the
software to detect a new virus. These systems can be
configured and secured so that your users will be
unaware of their presence until needed. Can you
afford the costs associated with the compromise of
your network security and the loss of mission
critical data? Let Kenvin Associates develop a
comprehensive virus protection program tailored to
your specific needs. |
