Hi Robert,

Thank you for the response. Yes, this is helpful. Outside of your testing,
have you experienced production hosts that become infected by false
negatives?

Has anyone else on the list used ESET?

 Hello,

We use ESET and I would not recommend this for anyone, I have passed known
virus files passed it that Symantec caught and I don't think very highly of
Symantec.

For a HIDS solution look into http://www.ossec.net/ we are testing it and
so far it is turning out to be nice.

We also use Truecrypt for encrypting containers and store important files
in that container.  There are ways around it but works well enough for what
we use it for, I have not done extensive testing on the whole disk
encryption but I know others here have.

Hope this helps,

- Robert

Hello List,

I am evaluating migrating to a new AV/endpoint solution for my enterprise.
We are a Microsoft/AD shop. I was hoping that the list would share their
frustrations, successes, and opinions with some of the endpoint solutions
that are currently on the market. I have listed below the features that we
may or may not utilize, ordered by their importance level.

The solutions that I am currently testing include Sophos, and ESET. Is
there anything negative that you have experienced with Sophos or ESET?

Features in Order of Importance
1.       AV protection
2.       Spyware protection
3.       Reporting
4.       Ease of policy configuration
5.       Firewall
6.       HIPS/HIDS
7.       Encryption
8.       NAC

Thanks,

Aaron
