Agnitum released recently the new solution against malware, spam, identity theft and other Internet-borne threats to home and small-business Windows users. Outpost Security Suite Pro (OSS) available now and is a comprehensive, proactive security protection method that combines in a single product the company's acclaimed personal firewall, an innovative all-in-one anti-malware engine, intelligent spam filter, utilities to prevent unauthorized program interactivity and self-protection protocols that block attempts by malware to bypass or shut down the program.
Mikhail Penkovsky, global vice-president for Marketing and Sales: "OSS provides the robust security that users expect from Agnitum. This is not just another security suite. Our broad-based proactive protection, built around one of the world's most advanced personal firewalls, delivers efficient, low-impact protection for all users, no matter what their level of experience." The suite builds on Agnitum's Outpost Firewall Pro, an award-winning personal firewall that guards more than a million users worldwide and, according to PC Magazine (27 Nov. 2006), "is tough enough to resist any attack."
Outpost Firewall Pro has added anti-spyware, identity theft protection and leak prevention, as well as the innovative community-based ImproveNet service, which offers users with tested and ready-to-use configuration rules that reflect real-world application installations. With OSS, Agnitum releases a unified anti-malware engine and SmartScan technologies, which speed the scanning of NTFS and FAT32 for malware by tracking new files and files that are modified, enabling users to scan just these changed or new files, not the whole system. Agnitum engineers integrated the unified anti-malware engine into OSS leveraging anti-virus technology licensed from VirusBuster, a Hungarian anti-virus developer that consistently achieves 100 percent certifications from Virus Bulletin.
Among the key benefits we can find:-
Usability. Robust security doesn't need to mean complexity of operation. Outpost's flexible interface gives a wealth of options for advanced users to set up, but the out-of-the-box settings offer high levels of automated protection for a range of users, no matter how technically proficient.
- Unified anti-malware. Instead of overloading the system with multiple scanning engines, Outpost's anti-malware module joins anti-spyware and anti-virus in the same process to deliver low-impact, high-speed, easy-to-use scanning.
-
Pre-emptive protection. Prevention is always more efficient than after-the-attack cures. Outpost's inter-application behavior monitoring increases the likelihood that malware and other threats will be stopped before they can get onto the PC and activate. The unique host protection reveals and stops unauthorized activity, preventing new attacks and blocking threats at the earliest possible stage.
-
Self-protection. Outpost Security Suite Pro reveals if any application is attempting to interfere with its own operations. This prevents protection from being deactivated or otherwise disabled by malware.
