Overview LANDesk Security Suite's standard and high-frequency vulnerability scanning allows detect antivirus, OS and application patch needs quickly and based on the own needs and chosen level of detail. Custom scans define the specific conditions scanned for. And threat analyzer lets one easily identify configuration risks. Anti-spyware capabilities protect systems from attacks in real-time with access to LANDesk's regularly updated, comprehensive database of known spyware, adware, Trojans, key-loggers and other malware. Real-time alerting lets one easily stay on top of security needs and newly released definitions, their type and severity - so the IT team can put the energies elsewhere. Connection Control Manager limits network access to authorized networks or IP addresses or blocks communication with specific networks.
