KASPERSKY LABS
LTD.
Kaspersky Labs is a privately-owned, international, anti-virus software-
development group of companies headquartered in Moscow (Russia), and
representative offices in the United Kingdom, United States of America, China,
France and Poland. Founded in 1997, Kaspersky Labs concentrates its efforts on
the development, marketing and distribution of leading-edge information security
technologies and computer software.
Kaspersky Labs is one the world leaders in data-security and anti-virus
technologies. The Company was the first to develop many features that are now
an essential part of all modern anti-virus protection: an external anti-virus
database with embedded specialized modules, a search capability within
archived and compressed files, integrated anti-virus protection for Linux, etc. In
addition to anti-virus software, Kaspersky Labs is committed to the development
of general data-security software. Our current product line includes Kaspersky™
Inspector and Kaspersky™ WEB Inspector, whose unique capabilities allow
users full control over any unauthorized alteration to the file system and content
of a Web server.
Upcoming add-on features include Kaspersky™ Anti-Hacker for general
workplace defense against any hacker attacks, and Kaspersky™ Anti-Spam for
enterprise-wide prevention of incoming "spam" messages and internal e-mail
misusing. Kaspersky Labs' flagship product, Kaspersky™ Anti-Virus (formerly
known as AVP), has been in constant development since 1989, and has been
rated consistently by numerous computer magazines and virus research centers
as the best anti-virus product on the market.
Kaspersky™ Anti-Virus covers all reliable methods of anti-virus protection: anti-
virus scanners, resident "on-the-fly" virus interceptors, integrity checkers and
behavior blockers. Kaspersky™ Anti-Virus supports all of the most popular
operating systems and applications. It provides strong anti-virus defense for e-
mail gateways (MS Exchange Server, Lotus Notes/ Domino, Sendmail, Qmail,
Postfix, and Exim), firewalls and WEB servers. All Kaspersky Labs products rely
on Kaspersky's own database of over 60,000 known viruses and all other types
of malicious code. The product is also powered by a unique heuristic technology
combating even future threats: the built-in heuristic code analyzer, which is able
to detect up to 92% of unknown viruses and the world's only behavior blocker for
MS Office 2000 providing 100% guaranteed protection against any macro-
viruses.
