Windows Server 2008 Security software

I am evaluating Windows Server 2008 security. Besides the Windows Firewall, what other microsoft and non-microsoft security products (such as antivirus) are available? Which one has 30-days trial?

 

Hi Ivan

I assume you mean besides Firewalls softand hardware and Virus scanner.

I use the below!

Thank you Mike. Correct me if I got it wrong. The sniff-em software can work on up to Windows Server 2003 and do not support Windows Server 2008 yet. and xp-antispy works on XP but not on server. It seems that the current choice I have is the Microsoft OneCare which is part of Windows Small Business Server 2008 installation, isn't it?

I also need a virus scanner.

 

Good question Ivan!

For sure all works with 2k, XP and 2k3.

I think perhaps they have not updated the web page. I believe they would either add it or post it is not compatable!

I think based on my knowlege of them that they would work on 2008.

But I am holding off implementing 2008 because it is so new!

I do have an installation of 2008 in Virtual PC, I will test them in it when I have a chance.
