Key features
Centralized Administration Console
The admin console enables administrators to centrally manage security threats across the enterprise. IT administrators easily configure clients, manage updates, establish alerts, view reports and perform real-time scans of remote systems.
Proactive Protection with Proactive Shields
Spy Sweeper Enterprise actively monitors against spyware and adware installations using multiple proactive shields. Proactive shields detect changes to system memory, registry entries, host files, start-up processes, browser-hijackings and other security settings.
Seamless, Scalable Deployment
Developed with the needs of large corporations in mind, Spy Sweeper Enterprise is easily scaled to fit companies of any size. Spy Sweeper Enterprise is seamlessly deployed throughout the organization using login script, an internal software management solution, or using Group Policy in Active Directory. The client can be deployed in three modes - invisibly for no user interaction, pop up an alert window during scan, or display an animated tray icon to indicate activity without disrupting the user. IT administrators can delegate control of individual product features to clients, or by using a password on the client side, give complete admin control to power users or system administrators working at the desktop.
Laptop and Remote User Management
Spy Sweeper Enterprise maintains the enforcement of administrator-set policies for laptop and mobile users while not logged into the network. Remote users directly check the Webroot update server for definition updates while not connected to the corporate network, so that users continue to receive the most-up-to-date protection from spyware threats.
Extensive Spyware Sweep and Removal Settings
Settings can be adjusted to run sweeps as frequently as necessary. During a scheduled sweep, Webroot Spy Sweeper Enterprise immediately quarantines or deletes any spyware, adware and other unwanted programs or traces that match the threat database. The quarantine feature disables the functionality for immediate protection, while the administrator evaluates and permanently deletes suspect files or safely restores them if they are essential to the operation of desired applications. The lock down feature allows Spy Sweeper administrators to customize network and workstation settings to ensure that all workstations comply with the corporate security policy.
Comprehensive Definition Database
Spy Sweeper Enterprise scans the entire network using an extensive database of known spyware threats. With the most advanced, technically efficient spyware detection process, the Webroot Threat Research Center has the ability to locate spyware before an end user is infected.The Spy Sweeper Enterprise definition database is regularly updated for the latest protection from emerging spyware threats.
Customizable Reporting
Extensive, customizable reporting features provide executive summaries, spy reports, and status updates. Administrators can create reports to provide detailed analysis of the spyware threat by workstation, group, type detected, and time. In addition, alert settings allow administrators to configure multiple email addresses and notification options to notify the correct people in the organization when a threat is detected.
Customer Support
Spy Sweeper Enterprise is supported by a dedicated, expert team of technicians. Customer support is offered via web-based ticketing system, email and toll-free phone to address any spyware-related issues.
