ESET Smart Security includes antivirus, antispyware, antispam and firewall features built on ESET’s ThreatSense detection system and the ESET NOD32 scanning engine. It uses 40MB of disk space and scans systems up to 30 times faster than other products. It provides users with ESET NOD32 Antivirus.

ESET Smart Security integrates the antispyware, antispam and firewall features with the new version of ESET’s flagship ESET NOD32 Antivirus scanning engine. This integration allows each module to share information with others to evaluate and classify every threat appropriately.

ESET’s ThreatSense technology provides high level of security. This antivirus technology has not missed any virus in Virus Bulletin VB 100 testing over the past nine years. It has also received Advanced+ awards from AV-Comparatives.org for proactive protection.

Our research indicates that consumers and businesses are looking for maximum protection, low system requirements, accurate results and fast scanning speeds – in that order. They are tired of solutions that slow down their computers and interfere with other applications, said Anton Zajac, CEO of ESET. He added, ESET set out to build a solution that addressed these concerns while offering the best level of protection available. With ESET Smart Security, we’ve surpassed our goal and savvy computer users will be amazed by its ease of use, intelligent lightweight design and near-zero impact on system performance.

ESET’s new solutions are targeted at SMBs. By incorporating ESET’s Remote Administrator, both ESET Smart Security and the new version of ESET NOD32 Antivirus can be deployed and managed remotely from a central location.
