Is anti-virus alone enough?

Why did my PC get slower when I installed my current antivirus?
Many anti-virus softwares use your PC to store all the information (or signatures) and do all the processing needed to scan for viruses. This can use a large amount of storage space, which can slow your PC. Our solution does the majority of it’s processing in the cloud, meaning the client uses just 15MB of your storage space. That’s the same as a single photograph.

Why do virus scans take so long?
When a scan starts, many anti-virus softwares have to download all the latest threat definitions (or signatures) first, and then use your PC’s processing power to run the comparison. This is usually done on regular intivals throughout the day. By comparission, Endpoint Detection & Response looks for malicious, threatening or unusual activity in real time. meaning that you do not have to run scans, EDR will automatically detect activity before traditional signature based anti-virus could detect.
Anti-Spam
Spam email contains two types of threat; threat to your cybersecurity and threat to your productivity.
The cybersecurity threat comes in the form of phishing emails. These emails seek to obtain valuable information such as personal data or bank details through deception. This could be by mimicking your bank, a personal plea from a friends’ hacked email account, or a scam like the famous Nigerian Prince deception.
The productivity threat comes from an overwhelming amount of unneeded and unsolicited emails in your inbox. Even filling in an online form for a good reason can lead to a deluge of unwanted sales contact. Often our email addresses are traded amongst online spammers. Whatever the reason, unwanted email can stop us seeing the emails we need to see, such as customer contact.
How Anti-Spam helps your business.
Antispam scans and interprets the content of your inbound emails to determine if it’s an email you need to see. Lists of known spam email and IP addresses are kept constantly up to date and are used to reject emails at source. The content of the email and its attachments are scanned for spam-related words and phrases with suspicious emails being quarantined.
Where the sender’s intention is unclear, such as an unsolicited sales email, the email is quarantined and you are notified. You can review the email safely without any risk of contamination. If it’s an email you recognise and trust, you can release it to your inbox. If it’s something you don’t want you can block the email, the sender of the entire domain.
