SanDisk USB Drives Powered by McAfee Anti-Malware Protection
SanDisk has launched SanDisk Cruzer Enterprise USB flash drives protected with McAfee’s anti-malware technology. These drives will add an extra layer of protection in enterprise USB flash drives. When ever any file is copy into the Cruzer Enterprise USB flash drives McAfee heuristics and antivirus engine automatically loads and start scanning the data. Currently all Cruzer Enterprise USB flash drives protects all data with advanced hardware-based 256-bit AES encryption and users can set passwords to their Flash drives. A combination of data encryption and strong password makes it extremely difficult for unauthorized users to access data should the drive be lost or stolen. Lifecycle of all Cruzer Enterprise USB flash drives can be managed remotely, lifecycle includes password recovery and renewal through the network, remote termination of lost drives, central back-up and restore, and central usage tracking. This means data is not lost when a drive is lost, and IT administrators can provision a replacement flash drive with user files stored on the network.
Cruzer Enterprise USB flash drives carry a database of malware signatures and rules that adds a extra load on the USB drives and most importantly the user s has to regularly update malware database. SanDisk also not confirmed the nature of update would be used to update malware database, may it could some thing like the McAfee’s existing USB-based scanning product, VirusScan USB, which works using the U3 software environment
Roy Ramati, vice president and general manager, Enterprise Division at SanDisk,Said
SanDisk Cruzer Enterprise is an ideal solution for the mobile workforce and for IT departments concerned with data security, because it allows employees to have access to data everywhere and yet be fully protected. McAfee’s technology to our security solutions for the enterprise enables our customers to extend their security perimeter to mobile storage.
Prices for the anti-malware SanDisk Cruzer should be announced in the coming days

Good scan for computer
I would like to recommend Search-and-destroy to anyone that wants a good scan for their computer. I tired many other scanners in the past but so far I like this one the best. It’s cheaper than many of the others and it cost less. What more can you ask for? The antispyware solution from Search-and-destroy found at search-and-destroy is a great option whether you use your computer for work or personal use. It will keep it clear and clean of antispyware that bogs down your PC and causes it to be sluggish and annoying.
