AntiVirus:

Automatic updates and upgrades

Ensure that your employees’ protection is always up-to-date. Real-time updates, upgrades, and even uninstalls are automatically pushed to your employees’ computers so there’s no need to waste time with manual checks.

Protects while browsing
Coast Networx, Inc. AntiVirus works with any web browser to check files before they’re downloaded and to scan URLs to protect your employees while searching, shopping, and banking online.

Verifies links before you click
Actively checks web links before it’s clicked to prevent your employees from visiting malicious websites. Also provides automatic, real-time scans of any links exchanged on Facebook®, Twitter®, or Skype®.

Our firewall works on both wired and wireless networks to protect your company’s data and prevent malware from taking over your PCs. With inbound and outbound port and application protection, your business is always protected.

Scans without distractions
Coast Networx, Inc. Smart Scanning reduces distractions. Scans run only when your employees are not using their PCs, and switch to low-priority mode while they’re working.

Protects identity
If your employees shop online, we’ll warn them when we detect any potentially dangerous software trying to steal their passwords or credit card numbers.

In-depth reporting
Receive comprehensive, at-a-glance reports based on individual PC activity for closer and easier monitoring.

Internet Content Filtering:

Automatic website blocking
Automatically blocks sites by category and sorts more than 60 million sites into subgroups for increased granularity. You can set flexible Block/Warn Only/Allow privileges for employee access.

A second line of defense
Malware category provides another layer of defense, stopping threats before they enter your network. Also iCat Dynamic Filtering scans any pages not yet categorized in our database to help ensure that new threats don’t slip through.

No proxy required
No hardware or network changes are needed, and the service does not require any rerouting of traffic, which could slow your Internet speed.

Secondary local passwords
Create a secondary, local or group passwords for office managers to override blocked pages without compromising the administrative password.

Easy policy settings
Set flexible policies for the office, at home, and on the road. Push real-time policy and group updates to your PCs from the cloud.

Real-time alerts
Coast Networx, Inc. can stay on top of things by receiving instant email alerts whenever there’s an issue.

Flexible scheduling
Allow employees to access specific websites at specific times. For example, you can give your employees access to Facebook® during their lunch break, but block access for the rest of their workday.

Activity reports
Gives you real-time information about employees’ Internet use. Easily view PC names, logged-in users, IP addresses, URLs, actions taken (e.g., if an employee was blocked, warned, or allowed), and the number of times someone tried to access a site.

Email AntiSpam:

Protect your network more efficiently
Ten levels of in-depth, cloud-based protection help keep unwanted or malicious email from ever reaching your network. Volume-based email protection helps reduce clutter from inbound emails sent to nonexistent individuals at your domain. Outbound email scanning prevents your employees from spreading viruses or inadvertently spamming contacts and getting your IP address blacklisted.

Block spammers

Choose to block messages from specific individuals or entire countries in order to receive only the emails that are truly important. Create “on-the-fly” addresses to be used on any website or discussion forum so legitimate users of the address can be “locked down” if the address is ever harvested and abused by spammers.

Save time and costs
Fewer frustrations, fewer infections, and avoiding issues like IP blacklisting all mean fewer costly complications for your business. And because Coast Networx, Inc. AntiSpam is easy to navigate, change settings, and add devices, you’ll save time, too.
