Out of the box, the Commtouch Antivirus solution - which includes a high-performance
AV engine and cloud-based detection services - met the requirements for minimal resource
consumption and maximum detection of viruses within an embedded operating system. Thanks
to its heuristics capabilities, Commtouch Antivirus is able to detect all threats, and
specifically zero day viruses with a very small footprint. NETGEAR allows its customers to
safely share, backup and recover files using its NAS solution.
"As a leader in the NAS industry, NETGEAR wanted to offer a solution beyond your
typical AV subscription. Every ReadyNAS ships with Anti-Viruses embedded in the device,
free of charge for our users," said Davin Oishi, senior product line manager for NETGEAR
Storage. "Security is a key factor in offering efficient NAS solutions. With Commtouch
Antivirus, we can provide our customers with state-of-the art protection from both known
and new viruses, Trojans and other malware threats."
"Network-attached storage is playing an increasingly important role in the network
infrastructure of SMBs and enterprises alike," said Shlomi Yanai, CEO at Commtouch. "Our
Antivirus solution is designed to combine high detection levels with low resource
requirements. NETGEAR's selection of Commtouch as the provider of antivirus technology for
their NAS solutions shows that our solutions are a perfect fit for this fast-growing
market."
