GFI Software has made some improvements to its GFI MAX Managed Antivirus, a solution dedicated to managed service providers (MSP). The latest release incorporates the VIPRE 6.2 malware protection technology and it also comes with a new free malware removal service.

“Our free malware removal service for GFI MAX customers is not something that we have seen other vendors offer but it underscores our absolute confidence in the anti-malware technology that is provided by the VIPRE engine,” said Dr. Alistair Forbes, general manager of the GFI MAX business unit.

“We have seen strong adoption of Managed Antivirus as result of the combination of the power of the VIPRE technology, ease of deployment from the dashboard and low overhead compared to other products on the market. This latest release sees further improvements in the level of security with no downside in system performance,” Forbes added.

“We are backing our claims with a free malware removal service – in the unlikely event that malware does get onto an MSP customer site protected by VIPRE then our technicians will carry out full remediation – at our cost.”

MSPs and other channel partners that want to resell the product under their own brand can deploy the antivirus agents on their customers’ computers to make sure their networks are protected against any types of cyber threats.

“VIPRE’s easy deployment, small foot print and robust detections make it an ideal managed antivirus service for MSPs,” noted ThreatTrack Security CEO, Julian Waits, Sr.

“It is exciting for ThreatTrack Security to continue collaborating with GFI MAX, bringing to market services that enable MSPs to grow their businesses by offering their customers comprehensive defence against online threats.”

Besides managed antivirus solutions, GFI MAX customers can also provide patch management, online backup, and remote monitoring and management services.
