I have a single virus scanner setup on my Exchange server, and another virus scanner from the same vendor setup on my NetWare server. I thought about having two virus scanners on my Exchange server in case a virus should slip through one of them.
I have also thought about replacing the scanner on the NetWare server, and instead use a scanner from a vendor different from the vendor that provides my Exchange scanner. Again, this will provide protection in case a virus slips through the other antivirus software. It also provides some protection in case the website for one of the vendors is not available for downloading updated signatures.
Does this sound like a reasonable approach to ensuring protection from viruses? The obvious downside would be the administrative hassle of having software from multiple vendors.
