Any VMsafe ready Antivirus programs available?

Are there any antivirus programs utilizing the VMsafe technology available for purchase?

We are evaluating different models of protecting our 1000+ Windows VMs.

It would be really nice if we could avoid installing full blown AV agents in all of our VMs.

Regards

Bernt

Hello,

VMSafe will be part of the VDC-OS and not standard ESX v3.x.

No, not at the moment. And VMsafe also hasn't been released officially...
