Inundated by spam and other network security problems , the Arlington County government struck back with a multilayered defense using Symantec products. Symantec Mail Security appliances block spam at the gateway, reducing burden on email servers, and at the network level as well. At the client level, Symantec AntiVirus and Symantec Client Security provide protection against malware for the county's 3,800 users. The result is $750,000 in annual savings in staff time, as well as 80 percent fewer messages in the county's email servers.Platforms
