I am after a bit of information regarding anti-spyware. We run McAfee A/V on the desktops and servers here as well as Groupshield. We also run Mailsweeper and Websense. I now need to look at anti-spyware. We have approx 300 computers / users to protect.
I know there are a lot of products out there. What is the best solution for protecting against spyware at the gateway? Or is it inevitable that I will need some antispyware running on the desktops (to eliminate spyware which may already be present on PCs).
A brief Google has flagged up the following: Black Spider - but this is a managed service (I would prefer in-house control) Blue Coat - proxy appliance Surf Control - agent on desktop Trend Micro - agent based solution McAfee - agent based? Barracuda - appliance at the gateway
We do occasionally use Lavasoft Ad-aware to eliminate problems when we know there is spyware. We have a licensed copy of this (it is not free to commercial users).
Any help? I know I haven't provided too much info... I didn't know what level of detail to go into, in this initial post.
Thanks in anticipation.
