Note: Anti-Virus Software
The AlphaShield™ device does not avoid the necessity of anti-virus
software required on the client's operating system. Security devices
cannot screen out viruses destined to the client in a valid user session.
Viruses can also enter the client’s computer system through any periph-
eral equipment such as floppy disk drives with a contaminated floppy
disk installed. Anti-virus software is always required regardless of
whether a security device is installed or not.
Note: Always have an up-to-date version of an anti-virus software
installed on the client’s operating system at all times.
If you do not have an anti-virus software package currently running
on your computer, it is highly recommended that you operate the
AlphaShield™ in Manual Mode. This will alleviate any chance of
Trojan type viruses from initiating transmissions from the user's side of
the network while the computer system is left unattended.
