PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Authentium today
announced its Command Anti-Malware v5 has been chosen to support
Microsoft Forefront codename “Stirling,” an integrated
security suite that delivers comprehensive protection across endpoints,
servers, and the edge that is easier to manage and control.
Authentium’s Command Anti-Malware v5 will be used in
Forefront codename “Stirling” server security solutions,
such as Forefront Protection 2010 for Exchange Server, Forefront
Protection 2010 for SharePoint, and Forefront Protection 2010 for
Office Communications Server to provide real-time protection against
viruses, spyware, Trojans, and other threats to Microsoft’s
corporate customers.
“Authentium provides reliable detection technology that
allows us to maintain industry-leading catch rates in our Forefront
server security products,” says John Chirapurath, director of the
Identity and Security Business Group at Microsoft. “Our
collaboration with Authentium will help Microsoft deliver on its
Business Ready Security strategy to enable customers to manage risk and
empower their people.”
In November 2008, Authentium released the 5th generation
of the Command anti-malware engine. The new engine anticipates the
evolving threat landscape and has powerful layers of heuristic
detection, resulting in industry leading zero-hour detection from
viruses and other threats. Command also boasts one of the
industry’s largest databases of virus definitions.
“Authentium is strategically aligned behind antivirus
partnerships and we provide our partners with access to the highest
detection rates, fastest scanning speed, and maximum resource
efficiency,” says Doug Brunt, President and CEO of Authentium.
“We have worked very closely with Microsoft to develop the best
protection possible for Microsoft products and we are very happy to
have been selected by Microsoft to continue to grow the
relationship.”
