Workstations Protection

Workstations are protected by Dr.Web anti-virus packages designed for corresponding operating systems.

Anti-virus packages are installed on protected stations and get connected to Dr.Web Server. Each station is included in one or several groups registered on this Server. Stations and the Server communicate through the protocol used in the local network (TCP/IP of 4 or 6 version).

Installation

Local installation of anti-virus package under macOS is performed directly on a station. Installation may be implemented either by an administrator or by a user.

Management

When connection with Dr.Web Server is established, administrator is able to use the following functions implemented by anti-virus package on a station:

•Centralized configuration of Anti-virus on workstations via the Control Center.

At this, administrator can either deny or grant user's permissions to change Anti-virus settings on stations on one's own.

•Configure the schedule for anti-virus scans and other tasks to execute on a station.

•Get scan statistics and other information on anti-virus components operation and on stations state.

•Start and stop anti-virus scans and etc.

Update

Dr.Web Server downloads updates and distributes them to connected stations. Thus, optimal threat protection is implemented, maintained and adjusted automatically regardless of workstation users’ computer skills.

In case an anti-virus station is disconnected from the anti-virus network, Anti-virus on station uses the local copy of the settings and the anti-virus protection on a workstation retains its functionality (up to the expiry of the user’s license), but the software is not updated. If a station is allowed to use the Mobile mode, after connection with the Server is lost, the virus databases can be updated directly from the GUS.
