The company claims that CounterSpy Enterprise scans for 36 categories of spyware that many anti-virus products do not see or cannot touch, with the system detecting spyware very fast due to its dedicated scanner.

The product uses remote agents to automatically scan end point machines against a scanning engine running a threat signature database, and allows administrators working at a central management console to access and control threat database updates, recast scan schedules or set recommended actions to identified spyware threats.

Operating system requirements for the CounterSpy Admin Console and Policy Server component are Windows 2003 Server, Windows XP Professional, Windows 2000 Server with SP3 and Windows 2000 Professional with SP2.
