The Blue Coat AVT 400 (AV400) enables organizations to scan for viruses, worms, spyware and trojans entering through Web-based backdoors including:

• Personal Web email accounts where a majority of viruses and worms propagate
• Web spam or email spam which unknowingly activate trojan downloads or hidden Spyware
• Browser based file downloads that bypass existing virus scanning defenses
• SSL-encrypted malware

Traditional, Web anti-virus gateways often lack scalability and performance for HTTP, HTTPS and FTP scanning, leaving desktops to defend themselves. The AV400 combined with a Blue Coat SG Appliance provides a proven record of enterprise robustness for effective virus scanning, plus complete visibility and control of enterprise Web communications.
The AV400 is a purpose-built solution designed for quick integration with the Blue Coat SG 800 for deployment in medium enterprise or distributed environments. Heuristic Trojan scanning can also prevent many spyware variants. It provides fast, low-latency scanning performance with a choice of antivirus engines from Kaspersky, Sophos, McAfee, Ahn Lab and Panda.
