Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Linux File Server is a two-part solution designed to protect file servers. The first module, the on access protection, is integrated with the operating system and checks file modified files (either new or amended files), thereby ensuring real-time protection of the system without significantly increasing server load. The second module, the on demand scanner, scans the file system, removable media devices and individual files either on schedule or on demand.

Detects and disinfects viruses, spyware and other malware

Real-time protection of the system. The application intercepts file system requests, scans the files being accessed for malicious code and cures or deletes infected objects or isolates suspicious objects for further analysis.

On demand file system scanning. The application scans specified areas for infected and suspicious objects at the time specified (or upon the administrator’s command). It analyzes objects and disinfects, deletes or isolates objects for further analysis.

Quarantine. Infected, suspicious and damaged objects detected in the server’s file system can be moved to the quarantine folder, where they may undergo further actions, such as disinfection, deletion, etc.

Backup storage. The solution incorporates support for saving copies of infected objects in a backup storage area before they are treated and/or deleted, making it possible to restore them on demand if treatment results in damage to the original file.
