Description
Organizations should deploy anti-virus software on all hosts for which satisfactory anti-virus software is available. Anti-virus software should be installed as soon after OS installation as possible and then updated with the latest signatures and anti-virus software patches (to eliminate any known vulnerabilities in the anti-virus software itself). To support the security of the host, the anti-virus software should be configured and maintained properly so it continues to be effective at detecting and stopping malware. Anti-virus software is most effective when its signatures are fully up-to-date. Accordingly, anti-virus software should be kept current with the latest signature and software updates to improve malware detection.
