RESTON, Va., Sept. 23, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- ThreatTrack Security – a leader in cyber threat prevention solutions that substantially change how organizations respond to cyberattacks – today announced the release of VIPRE^® Business Premium 7.0, the latest version of the company's industry-leading business antivirus software. VIPRE 7.0 includes an array of new features aimed at simplifying the management of endpoints not connected to the corporate network, automating policy assignment based on device type, and enabling quicker, more efficient threat scans.

"Malware has become the preferred tool of cybercriminals, and it is behind most of the headline-grabbing data breaches we are regularly reading about," said Julian Waits, Sr., president and CEO of ThreatTrack Security. "Endpoint security is a fundamental element in any organization's malware defense, and VIPRE defends more than 10 million endpoints around the world every day. VIPRE Business Premium 7.0 has been enhanced to provide even stronger defenses across today's major threat vectors – including mobile, web and email – while adding automation and optimization features that make security simpler and faster."

New VIPRE 7.0 features include:

VIPRE Roaming Service – enables IT administrators to more easily secure remote offices and off-network machines by installing roaming agents on their endpoints. These VIPRE agents call back to a cloud-based service, ensuring that organizations can manage all of its endpoints from anywhere in the world through the VIPRE management console without the need for secondary site servers or forcing users to connect to a corporate network via VPN. VIPRE 7.0 ensures administrators have complete visibility into the security status of all the endpoints they manage, and that all machines receive the latest virus definition packages.

Automated Policy Assignment – makes endpoint security deployment faster and easier. VIPRE 7.0 automatically identifies the machine type – such as laptop, workstation or server – and operating system environment to apply the appropriate policy for each device. This ensures optimal protection profiles and scan settings for robust malware defense without impacting user productivity and systems availability.

Rapid Scan & Enhanced Scan Customization – offers a new layer of protection for organizations that want to add additional system scans to their scheduled deep scans, or to quickly scan a suspect device for threats. Rapid Scan optimizes scan times by enabling VIPRE to focus on higher-risk files unique to each organization's environment. Enhanced scan customization offers greater flexibility to administrators who want to create and manage scans to secure the data they value most or to bolster defenses against known threats.

Integrated Mobile Device Management for iOS and Android devices
