Bluecoat Proxy AV Appliances

The ProxyAV™ 510 and AV 810 are high performance internet antivirus appliances that are implemented in conjunction with the BlueCoat Proxy SG range of proxy servers. They enable organisations to scan for viruses, worms, spyware and trojans entering through Web-based backdoors including:

• Personal Web email accounts where a majority of viruses and worms propagate
• Web spam or email spam which unknowingly activate trojan downloads or hidden Spyware
• Browser based file downloads that bypass existing virus scanning defenses

Traditional, Web anti-virus gateways often lack scalability and performance for HTTP and FTP scanning, leaving desktops to defend themselves. The BlueCoat ProxyAV internet antivirus appliances combined with the ProxySG™ proxy servers provide scalability for virus scanning, plus complete visibility and control of enterprise Web communications.

The ProxyAV appliances are purpose-built systems that integrate tightly with the Blue Coat web proxies for deployment in medium enterprise or distributed environments. They provide scalable performance with a choice of antivirus engines from Sophos, Kaspersky, Panda and McAfee.
