Qnap Updates McAfee Antivirus V 3.2 for NAS Adding Multi-Thread Scanning and More

Qnap Systems, Inc. released McAfee Antivirus Version 3.2 for its NAS.

Version introduces several features designed to enhance overall security and efficiency of company’s NAS, including:

• Virus definition update: With the ability to choose the frequency of auto-update checks, users can now ensure their NAS is safeguarded vs. emerging threats.
• Smart scan: The smart scan feature intelligently detects and skips previously scanned files, optimizing the scanning process for improved efficiency and reduced system load.
• Multi-thread scanning: Leveraging the processing power of CPUs, the NAS divides scanning tasks into multiple threads, enabling parallel processing and improving scanning speed. (Note: this feature is only supported by processors with more than 4 threads.)
• Infected files management: When McAfee Antivirus detects infected files, users are empowered with a range of specific actions they can take to mitigate the threat. These actions include ‘Restore, Restore and Exclude, Quarantine, Repair, and Delete’.

“The release of McAfee Antivirus version 3.2 underscores our commitment to providing cutting-edge security solutions for NAS users,” said Sean Peng, product manager. “We continuously strive to enhance the protection and performance of our customers’ data, and these new features in McAfee Antivirus for NAS represent a significant step forward in achieving that goal.”

McAfee Antivirus for NAS version 3.2 is available for all company’s NAS with QTS 5.0.0/QuTS hero h5.0.0 (or later). A free 30-day trial is available for each Qnap NAS device.
