BitDefender Technologies
At the core of all BitDefender products
there is B-HAVE (Behavioral Heuristic
Analyzer in Virtual Environments). In
addition to traditional signature detection
and content-based heuristic methods, B-HAVE
implements behavior-based heuristics.
By emulating a virtual computer-inside-a-computer
where pieces of software are run and checked
for potential malicious behavior, B-HAVE
virtually eliminates false positives and
significantly increases detection rates
for new and unknown malware.
This proprietary BitDefender technology
represents a new security layer that keeps
the operating system safe from unknown
viruses by detecting malicious pieces
of code for which signatures have not
yet been released.
Certified Antivirus Engines
BitDefender’s award winning scan engines
featuring the B-HAVE technology have been
recognized by leading certification bodies
to provide the most proactive antivirus
protection available. The BitDefender
Antivirus scan engines are certified by
ICSA Labs, Virus Bulletin and Checkmark.
Core Functionalities
Samba Integration
The product features a precompiled version
of the vfs module that allows integration
with the latest Samba build available
at the technical release date. BitDefender
Security for Samba works with any Samba
build as its vfs module is opensourced
and it can be compiled against any Samba
version.
Share Management
Better compliance with specific file sharing
policies is achieved because the administrator
can define separate sets of antivirus
rules for each share protected by BitDefender
Security for Samba.
Advanced Update System
BitDefender Security for Samba retrieves
the latest updates and patches either
on-demand or automatically (even through
proxy servers). The update process is
secure and every update is signed, making
man-in-the-middle attacks virtually impossible.
SNMP Support
BitDefender Security for Samba works with
SNMP-based monitoring systems. The SNMP
Daemon Plug-in allows performing product
management actions via SNMP, such as triggering
the update process or restarting the product.
Increased Usability
License Management
The license management module enables
the administrator to manage the licensing
status of the BitDefender Security for
Samba users. Users can be added to the
license list manually (by the administrator)
or automatically (first users that access
the server are registered).
Reports and Statistics
BitDefender Security for Samba can send
customizable e-mail notifications or SNMP
alerts about its activity: number of scanned,
disinfected, deleted, infected or filtered
files. The statistics module displays
information about current and past activity
in a convenient rrd- based graph or chart
format
Intuitive Management Interface
BitDefender Remote Admin
This management tool for Unix-based products
helps remotely configure any settings
in a single interface and check the current
status of the product (detailed statistics
and update information).
BDSAFE (The BitDefender Swiss
Army KniFE)
This management tool is the command line
interface which allows performing post-install
configuration and administration tasks.
Compatibility and Flexibility
BitDefender Security for Samba is flexible
and configurable up to its smallest detail.
It fully complies with FHS (Filesystem
Hierarchy Standard) and its Rpm, deb and
generic .tar.run packages ensure its compatibility
with all major Unix-based products.
