Details

The ESET Virtualization Security (EVS) is currently in the Limited Support status and no new version of the product is expected. The support of EVS ended with ESET PROTECT 8.1.

We recommend that you migrate your environment to endpoint management with the latest version of ESET PROTECT. To do this, install ESET PROTECT in your virtual environment and deploy ESET Management Agent with endpoint security products on the virtual machines.

Managing your virtual machines with ESET Endpoint Security enables you a higher level of security, with features such as HIPS, Brute-Force Attack Protection, firewall, device control, web control, email and antispam protection.
