Kaspersky Lab Makes Linux Even More Secure

A new version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus (AVP) for Linux has been released!

Moscow, Russia, September 22, 2000, - Kaspersky Lab, an international
anti-virus software development company, announces a new version of
Kaspersky Anti-Virus (AVP) for Linux. This latest version combines unique
functionality, which significantly simplifies the program's use, and the
world's first anti-virus solution to integrate into the popular e-mail
gateways Sendmail and Qmail.

The new edition is defined into two separate products, one for workstations
and another for servers. 
Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Linux Workstation now consists of five main
modules. An AVP Scanner to check disks on demand or by using an additional
third-party scheduler. Lite versions of an AVP Daemon (an anti-virus scanner
with an improved loading-into-memory procedure) and an on-access scanner AVP
Monitor, which intercepts and checks for viruses on all files being used in
real-time. A new interactive user interface AVP Tuner, which allows prompt
and effective control of all program's settings and AVP Updates enabling
users to easily download daily anti-virus database updates via the Internet.
In addition to the workstation version, Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Linux
Servers includes full versions of AVP Daemon and AVP Monitor. This latest
version also provides the ability to create a centralised anti-virus defence
for e-mail gateways, Sendmail and Qmail. This enables Kaspersky Anti-Virus
to perform a constant anti-virus filtration for both incoming and outgoing
e-mail correspondence and promptly repulses all intrusion of malicious
programs through e-mail.
 "The new anti-virus package edition has reconfirmed Kaspersky Lab's
leadership in development of anti-virus security for Linux. We hope, users
will appreciate the new features introduced in Kaspersky Anti-Virus for
Linux, which do not have any analogues worldwide," said Den Zenkin, Head of
Corporate Communications for Kaspersky Lab. 

The new version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Linux Workstation and Linux
Server is available via a world-wide network of distributors and resellers
as well as the Internet in Kaspersky Lab's online store.
