Compliance to what? I’m genuinely curious about who would mandate antivirus.

- enkrs 6y agoEven for smaller companies, when doing financial audit (required by law in many places) - consultant firms do highly encourage use of “endpoint protection across organization”. So in case of some IT screwup and financial losses, the auditors can say- “Well, they had Industry standard antivirus, so this shouldn’t have happened. Our financial risk assesment was still correct.”
- vianneychevalie 6y agoISO 27001 specifically mentions it
- viraptor 6y agoPCI-DSS pretty much requires a malware protection solution. In practice - an antivirus.
- TylerE 6y agoWhy Not Windows Defender? It’s really quite competent and it’s pretty lightweight.
- PostPlummer 6y agoThat is just fine for PCI-DSS. Not a problem at all.
