Dr.Web Av-Desk got to work in Volgograd after the successful deployment by the branch of Yujnaya Telekommunikatsionnaya Companiya, the largest telecom provider in the South of Russia.

Now subscribers of YTC have a unique opportunity to get a protection tool that provides them with anti-rootkit and anti-spy modules along with a traditional anti-virus to ensure that there will be no way for malware to get into a protected system.

At the same time support engineers of YTC will no longer need to assist users that have to handle aftermath of virus attacks. Moreover, the number of such attacks is expected to drop to zero since the provider network is now closely guarded. With Dr.Web both subscribers and a provider receive reliable anti-virus protection allowing them to focus on their work and forget about malware once and for all.

“Protection of a system is one of the greatest challenges for every Internet user. Doctor Web provides a solution to the security problem by making its anti-virus software easy to access and to use. I am confident that the demand for Dr.Web anti-virus service will be very high among our subscribers and the overall network security will improve significantly. So we think that Dr.Web AV-Desk is a unique business-model beneficial for providers as well as for users’, the deputyYTC branch head Igor Nefedov said.
