cookie_monster Posted June 1, 2008 Posted June 1, 2008 We are having a TS/Citrix box installed and am wondering what security software to use. We currently use NOD32 on our servers and clients and i'm wondering if it's suitable for TS as i've read that some AV apps don't suite TS very well. What are you all using? Also what other products do you use to help secure your TS boxes from the usual spyware/virus issues? Cheers Grant.
meastaugh1 Posted June 1, 2008 Posted June 1, 2008 I just use our usual AV on the terminal servers and it works fine. As long as your users are sufficiently locked down then I suspect the risk of exposure from viruses, spyware and the like should be minimal.
meastaugh1 Posted June 1, 2008 Posted June 1, 2008 Symantec AVCE If this list is anything to go by you should be fine with Nod Terminal Server and Citrix Compatible Anti-Virus Software According to the Nod manuals, there seems to be TS options, so I would assume that there is TS support.
cookie_monster Posted June 1, 2008 Author Posted June 1, 2008 Yeh i'd seen that there is TS support, i was just fishing for horror stories but it all looks good. Cheers.
Geoff Posted June 1, 2008 Posted June 1, 2008 I just installed our normal AV software (Sophos) and configured it the same as our desktop machines. No problems as far as I can tell.
Michael Posted June 1, 2008 Posted June 1, 2008 Generally speaking any AV software should be fine, because all AV software install Windows services when initially installed. The updating and scheduled scanning of any AV product is also controlled by its services.
