Cloud Based Anti Virus

 

Why Cloud based Anti Virus from MonsterCloud?

 

1. No Installation Required – the first noticeable advantage of cloud based anti virus is that there’s no need to install them on your PC. This has several advantage, chief among which is that it won’t eat up precious hard disk space on your PC, with its storage and memory footprint being a fraction of what local antivirus need, which have become bloated these days. Additionally, you can get them up and running immediately, and there’s no likelihood of messing up the installation (which usually results in a non-working antivirus or corrupted file volume).

 

2. No Updating Necessary – one of the weaknesses of anti virus software is that you have to keep it constantly up to date, since an outdated antivirus could leave you open to newer attacks. With cloud based anti-virus, there is no need to update your data files, since it’s hosted on the cloud, and will automatically be patched or updated by the provider. You’ll be receiving the latest in protection when it becomes available.

 

3. Double Security Layer – different anti-virus software have varying levels of efficiency and may not be able to catch or innoculate different viruses. The problem with local anti virus software is you can install only one kind, as installing another will result in all sorts of software conflicts, and will also bog your PC down. With a cloud based anti virus software, there’s no conflict. You can run one kind, and then proceed to run another different cloud based antivirus without worrying about conflicts or pc slowdown.

 

MonsterCloud’s Security Protocols

MonsterCloud provides its clients with a secure, private cloud that supports encryption at the highest industry standards. Only those people, devices and locations you authorize can access your company’s cloud. Access is controlled with military-grade security protocols and your data remains private and encrypted at all times. Not even MonsterCloud's engineers can read your data.

 

Think of your private cloud as your own secure single-family home, and a public cloud service as a motel. Your secure, private cloud is a completely separate entity, which nobody can access without your authorization. With public cloud services (for instance, an email service such as Gmail or a document storage service such as Dropbox), anybody can access them, from anywhere – unlike MonsterCloud, which is totally private.
