Symantec Corporate, 7.5.  Waiting for 7.6 to arrive.  We also will be
purchasing a Mcafee e500.

A good portion of or problems relate to a LAZY supervisor and several
departments that are in charge of their own equipment.  Just yesterday we
ran into a lab that had 15 new machines on our domain that we didn't know
about.  All without any AV and 2 were nimda monsters.

What are you using for your AV solution?

At 1300 machines given the problems we appear to be having, the guy that
does our AV wants a FTE created for it because he feels it would be
appropriate.

How big is your company?

Is 10,000 users enough for it to be a full time job?  100,000 users?

It varies from org to org.

I don't think this is a full time job.   If you have a full time
position just for A/V, you'd have to have a backup person since viruses
do not take any vacation.   Instead of having full time position, pay
A/V vendor to notify you (& other support staffs) when there's new virus via
pager, cell phone, email, etc.  If you want to have closer relationship with
A/V vendor, pay more money to have someone like Technical Account Manager,
TAM.  Once you have those communcation method established, you have to have
software that can distribute updates automatically and fast.

My two cents...

Just curious what some of the Exchange Admins think.  Would you consider
Antivirus a full time job?  I speak for both email and network/desktop.


Around here it isn't, although we wish it was cause it seems to be getting
neglected.  We are around 1300 users right now.
