History

NOD32

The first version of NOD32 - called NOD-ICE - was created in 1987 by Miroslav Trnka and Peter Pasko when computer viruses were becoming increasingly prevalent.

Initially the program gained popularity with IT workers in Eastern European countries, as ESET was based in Slovakia. Though the program's abbreviation was originally pronounced as individual letters, recent worldwide use of the program has led to the more common single-word pronunciation, sounding like the English word nod.[1] The company reached its 8000th update to virus definitions on February 12, 2013.

The acronym NOD stands for Nemocnica na Okraji Disku ("Hospital at the end of the disk"), a pun related to the Czechoslovak medical drama series Nemocnice na okraji města (Hospital at the End of the City).

Mail Security for Microsoft Exchange Server

On March 10, 2010 ESET released ESET Mail Security for Microsoft Exchange Server, which contains both antimalware and antispam modules.[2] It supports Microsoft Exchange 5.5, 2000, 2003, 2007 and 2010.

Mobile Security

ESET Mobile Security is the replacement for ESET Mobile Antivirus, which provided anti-malware and antispam functionality. ESET Mobile Security contains all the features of the older product and adds new anti-theft features such as SIM locking and remote wipe as well as a security audit and a firewall. Versions for Windows Mobile and a Symbian OS version are currently available for both home and enterprise users.[3][3]

Remote Administrator

ESET Remote Administrator is a central management console designed to allow network administrators to manage ESET software across a corporate network.

Smart Security

On November 5, 2007, ESET released an Internet security suite, ESET Smart Security version 3.0, to compete with other security suites by other companies such as McAfee, Symantec, AVG and Kaspersky. ESET Smart Security incorporates anti-spam and a bidirectional firewall along with traditional anti-malware features of ESET NOD32 Antivirus.

On March 2, 2009, ESET Smart Security version 4.0 was released, adding integration of ESET SysInspector; support for Mozilla Thunderbird and Windows Live Mail; a new self-defense module, an updated firewall module, ESET SysRescue and a wizard for creating bootable CD and USB flash drives.[4][5] There were initially compatibility problems between ESET Smart Security 4.0 and Windows Vista Service Pack 2 but these were remedied by an update.[6]

On August 17, 2010, ESET Smart Security version 4.2 was released with new features, enhancements and changes.[7]

On September 14, 2011, ESET Smart Security version 5.0 was released.[8]

SysInspector

ESET SysInspector is a diagnostic tool which allows in-depth analysis of various aspects of the operating system, including running processes, registry content, startup items and network connections. Anti-Stealth Technology is used to discover hidden objects (rootkits) in the Master Boot Record, boot sector, registry entries, drivers, services and processes. SysInspector Logs are standard XML files and can be submitted to IT experts for further analysis. Two logs can be compared to find a set of items not common to both logs. A log file can be saved as a service script for removing malicious objects from a computer.

Other programs

ESET has released free standalone removers for malware when they are widespread, such as Mebroot[9] and Conficker.[10]

In July, 2009, ESET released a program called ESET Uninstaller to help uninstall ESET NOD32 Antivirus and ESET Smart Security versions 3 and 4.[11]
