Features and benefits

Redesigned user interface	The user interface in this version has been significantly redesigned and simplified based on the results of usability testing. All GUI wording and notifications have been carefully reviewed and the interface now provides support for right-to-left languages such as Hebrew and Arabic. Online Help is now integrated into ESET Endpoint Antivirus and offers dynamically updated support content.
Antivirus and antispyware	Proactively detects and cleans more known and unknown viruses, worms, trojans and rootkits. Advanced heuristics flags even never-before-seen malware, protecting you from unknown threats and neutralizing them before they can do any harm. Web access protection and Anti-Phishing works by monitoring communication between web browsers and remote servers (including SSL). Email client protection provides control of email communication received through the POP3(S) and IMAP(S) protocols.
Regular updates	Regularly updating the detection engine (previously known as "virus signature database") and program modules is the best way to ensure the maximum level of security on your computer.
ESET LiveGrid® (Cloud-powered Reputation)	You can check the reputation of running processes and files directly from ESET Endpoint Antivirus.
Remote management	ESET PROTECT allows you to manage ESET products on workstations, servers and mobile devices in a networked environment from one central location.

Network attack protection	Analyses the content of network traffic and protects from network attacks. Any traffic which is considered harmful will be blocked.
