Tip of the Month—Preventing Users from Turning Off Anti-Virus Protection Centralized management and enforcement of anti-virus policy is the key to solving these simple problems faced by our customers on a daily basis. ePolicy Orchestrator, with the input from many worldwide customers, has been designed as a solution to help administrators maintain and manage their anti-virus policy from one central location. To prevent accidental or deliberate changes to anti-virus settings, ePolicy Orchestrator includes several safeguards that can be set and managed from one central console. It allows anti-virus software to run "silently" on a desktop by providing administrators with the ability to hide the respective tray icons and, as an added layer of security, the settings can be password protected. Additionally, constant reinforcement of policy can be set to occur at regular intervals. This ensures that any changes made, outside of policy, are automatically and seamlessly corrected including re-installation of anti-virus software that has been removed or disabled. However, reinforcement of policy does not always require communication with a central server as policy will be maintained at a PC level even when not connected to the network. This is of particular importance for remote or mobile users. For more information on ePolicy Orchestrator please click here. [
