DownloadSecurity to support ISA Server 2004.

GFI have announced that it will release an update to GFI DownloadSecurity for ISA Server 6 to support the Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server 2004. GFI DownloadSecurity for ISA Server 2004 is a content security product that handles the security risk of file downloads without resorting to blocking them all at firewall level. GFI DownloadSecurity content checks downloaded files for malicious content and viruses, and enables administrators to assert control over which files users download from HTTP and FTP sites.

The solution includes multiple anti-virus engines, to guarantee higher detection rate and faster response to new viruses, including the ability to quarantine downloads based on file type and user; a Trojan & Executable Scanner, to detect malicious executables; network-wide blocking of Java applets and ActiveX controls; and integration with Microsoft ISA Server 2004.

Users do not notice GFI

DownloadSecurity until they download a file: Then it displays a download progress dialog box and the download proceeds. Once the download is complete, GFI DownloadSecurity scans the file for viruses. If the file has no viruses and does not trigger a rule set by the security administrator, the user receives it immediately.

If the file triggers a rule, it is put into quarantine for administrator approval. Once approved, the file is sent to the user as an email attachment or link. If the file is rejected, the user is notified. More product information and the freeware version can be found at www.gfi.com/dsec/.
