Panda Software launches new TruPrevent technologies

EDP Weekly's IT Monitor, August 30, 2004

IT threats are becoming increasingly fast and sophisticated. IT managers have been calling on the industry to battle threats as they happen and to be able to detect the actions of viruses as they appear. The recent Sasser epidemic is just one example. This worm exploited a Windows vulnerability to infect millions of computers in just a few hours. This was not an isolated case however: other viruses like MyDoom or SQL Slammer have shown that it is possible to create a virus that can act far quicker than any human reaction capacity.

Panda Software's solutions were already the first to offer true daily updates but now Panda Software answers the call of the industry with its ground breaking TruPrevent Technologies. Panda Software offers the first and only solution to this type of threat with its line of preventive solutions that can preempt and block them as they try to enter or leave the system. Panda Software has been developing in this area for many years and the result of this effort is TruPrevent Technologies.

Just like a good detective, TruPrevent Technologies analyze suspicious behavior in programs and automatically block them intelligently with no need for human intervention and without having to ask users any questions. This characteristic also represents a bonus for administrators as it simplifies network management tasks.
