SEP Linux / Unix Client

I was under the impression that SEP supports Linux as a full anti-virus client, however recently, I have witnessed someone stating this and I would like a confirmation if possible if the below statement is true:

Symantec does not have a Linux anti-virus client.  What they do have is an endpoint protection product called Symantec Endpoint Protection, which is an anti-malware product.  It is essentially a remote-controlled server-based firewall, where the remote-control is determined using both manual and learned analytics.

Please advise.
