Symantec Corp. on Thursday announced plans to release a Web-based console to help system managers and network administrators to centrally administer Mac clients using Norton AntiVirus for Macintosh 9.0. The Web console — to be made available specifically to corporate and enterprise licensees of Norton AntiVirus software — will allow administrators to distribute virus definitions and product updates on demand, install the Norton AntiVirus software itself, lock-down settings, push configuration changes, and maintain client data in a MySQL database. Symantec plans to release the Web console in November; customers who have Symantec’s Norton AntiVirus Corporate Edition 8.x, Enterprise Edition 8.x and Corporate Edition 9.0 will receive information on how to get the software.
