Internet Security 6.0 is an integrated solution for protection of
personal computers against the main information-related threats, i.e. viruses,
hackers, spam and spyware. A common user interface allows configuration and
management of all solution components.
The anti-virus protection feature includes:
•
Anti-virus scanning of e-mail traffic
on the level of data transmission
protocol (POP3, IMAP and NNTP for incoming mail and SMTP for
outgoing messages) irrespectively of the mail client being used. The
program includes plug-ins for popular e-mail clients (Microsoft Office
Outlook, Microsoft Outlook Express and The Bat!) and supports
disinfection of their e-mail databases.
•
Real-time anti-virus scanning of Internet traffic transferred via HTTP.
•
File system protection
: anti-virus scanning of individual files, directories
or drives. In addition, the application can perform anti-virus analysis
exclusively for critical areas of the operating system and start-up objects
of Microsoft Windows.
•
Proactive protection
: the program performs constant monitoring of
application activity and processes running in random-access memory
preventing dangerous changes to the file system and registry, and
restores the system after malicious influence.
Protection against Internet-fraud
is guaranteed owing to the ability to
recognize phishing attacks, which helps prevent confidential data leaks (first of
all, your passwords, bank account and credit card numbers), and block execution
of dangerous scripts on web pages, pop-up windows and advertisement
banners. The feature
blocking charged phone calls
helps identify software that
attempts to use your modem for hidden unauthorized connection to paid phone
services and prevents such activity.
