Virus checking facility runs in Groupmax Mail Server Logo

In general, we take countermeasures against viruses in all end systems and in all PCs, that input/output data. Moreover, we can strengthen your virus protection by checking the server machine where data is concentrated.

However, general virus checking products cannot be used to cover servers where groupware is installed, since most of these servers store and manage data in specific ways. So, system managers have been waiting for the development of virus checking support designed for groupware systems.

Specifically designed to be used on servers, the virus detection option Groupmax Server - Scan Version 3 detects infected email and bulletin boards on Mail Servers in cooperation with the virus checking engines of expert anti-virus vendors. (It is also designed to deal with the year 2000 problem.)
