Good Evening,
We have been working on a new Content Management category for
SecurityWizardry which will provide vendor neutral details of every product
within certain product categories.  Michele Jordan has provided an excellent
2nd draft of some Anti Virus product categories including:

http://www.securitywizardry.com/av_server.htm
Server AntiVirus
The server products install on a standard server, and work either as a proxy
or with the mail package to check traffic for virus infections. Some do
mail-only, while others can provide scanning for web traffic as well

http://www.securitywizardry.com/av_firewall.htm
Firewall AntiVirus
These products are add-on software to firewall installations, that perform
the virus scans on all traffic flowing through the firewall, preventing the
virus infections from reaching the internal network.

http://www.securitywizardry.com/av_enterprise.htm
Enterprise AntiVirus
AntiVirus products which are centrally managed in a network environment.

http://www.securitywizardry.com/av_isa.htm
ISA Server AntiVirus
The Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server
(http://www.microsoft.com/isaserver/default.mspx) provides security for the
network and integration with a variety of Microsoft networking solutions.
Several products run on the ISA Server to provide anti-virus filtering for
all traffic flowing through the server.

We hope the pages prove to be useful, if there are any missing products or
errors we would be grateful for your input
