ESET Smart Security Business Edition

The Business Edition of ESET Smart Security includes all the features and benefits described above, but has additional functionality and flexibility that every growing business requires:

• Server Installation: ESET Smart Security Business Edition may be installed on servers as well as workstations (the Home Edition can only be installed on workstations). This is a critical feature for businesses, as servers are as vulnerable to attack as workstations. Should servers go unprotected; one virus can take down the entire system.
• Remote Administration: Monitor and administer your security solution from anywhere in the world with ESET Remote Administrator. This is an absolutely necessary feature for the business with more than one location, or the systems administrator who works remotely.
  
• "Mirror" Capability: ESET's mirror functionality enables your IT administrator to conserve bandwidth by creating a "mirror" of protected workstations, and pushing updates independently. This prevents each employee from having to access the Internet for updates, conserving resources and reducing overall susceptibility to threats.
