CA (formerly Computer Associates) has become the first antivirus firm to combine its own technology with an acquired antispyware solution. CA has introduced an integrated threat management (ITM product), eTrust ITM r8, but testers found this product difficult to install and configure. While CA's new offering is more difficult to configure and install across an enterprise than many of its competitors, the product does offer robust protection, Web-based consoles, and integrated reports, updates, and alerts, which make it worth considering. The pricing is similar to that of competing products by Symantec and Trend Micro, and is much more affordable than the integrated solution offered by McAfee. CA's eTrust ITM r8 separates detection engines for its antispyware and antivirus capabilities, but both engines are kept under the same client agent. The communication protocol acquired with PestPatrol's technology has been rewritten to operate with the eTrust Antivirus agent. With this unified architecture, antivirus signature updates, antispyware pattern files, and agent components are all provided together and delivered during a single update process. The product also provides for total Web-based management for its central administration console and for the individual client agents. Testers found the Web interfaces to be somewhat slow, having long load times, but the layouts were intuitive and easy to use. The ITM Server finds clients in several ways: either via leveraging phone-home behavior to register with the server or the serve actively discovers clients. Testers had problems getting the phone-home method to function properly, however. The product offers a good all-around protection for enterprise workstations.
