Management server. ESET File Security solutions are managed from a single pane of glass that can be installed on Windows or Linux. In addition to installation, ESET has a virtual appliance that you can simply import for quick and easy setup. Kaspersky Security for Windows Server takes care of this, providing features such as File Integrity Monitor and Log Inspection which help to not only prevent unwanted changes to the system but also to detect certain indicators of a security breach and complying with a number of regulations such as PCI/DSS.
