Computer Economics has tracked the economic impact of computer virus and malicious code attacks for several years.

75,000+ known viruses floating around today New virus threat occur each week New viruses are being designed to target corporate enterprises The threats will never go away

Performance It takes a PC hoursor even daysto scan the IFS. The PC must transfer all of the data over the network, which degrades overall network performance. PC Scanning Software is Not An Option

Security A PC requires a mapped drive to the root file system with *ALLOBJ authority. This level of access leaves the entire iSeries file system exposed to anyone with access to the PC. If the PC gets infected with a virus, that virus gains access to every file on the iSeries. A PC also transfers all of the data over the network, which exposes the data to anyone with a network sniffer program, a variety of which are readily available on the Internet. PC Scanning Software is Not An Option

Stability A number of problems with a PC-based scanning solution can stop the scanning process entirely A lost connection when the iSeries is restarted (IPLd) A pop-up warning message Lost power; etc. PC Scanning Software is Not An Option
