Anti-malware protection
Panda Security for Linux neutralizes all types of malware regardless of the source of the threat: Windows or Linux, through signature-based recognition of viruses, worms, Trojans, spyware and dialers.
Panda Security for Linuxalso incorporates a latest generation and highly effective heuristic engine that can detect potential threats and block them until the disinfection routine is available.
Permanent mail protection
Email is the main means of propagation used by malware. It is essential to ensure you have permanent protection monitoring email messages sent to your mailbox in order to eliminate the threat before it infects the file system.
Panda Security for Linux scans mail traffic in the most widely-used clients, such as Ximian Evolution, Kmail, Mozilla Mail and Thunderbird; and clients compatible with “standard Unix mailbox” format
Ease of use
To ease implementation of the solution, Panda Security for Linux has been specifically designed for workstations, providing an intuitive graphic interface based on
X-Window, which is fully compatible with the majority of distributions and desktops on the market, such as Gnome and KDE.
In addition, Panda Security for Linux includes local notifications shown in pop-up messages or sent via email, as well as a self-diagnosis system to find out the current status at a glance and reports and statistics for more in-depth information about virus incidents.
Powerful firewall
Panda Security for Linux incorporates firewall technology to protect against access attempts from remote computers and external connection attempts from the protected computer, identifying the application involved as if it were a personal firewall.
This firewall can also be configured using system rules to administer external connections.
