SkyRecon Extends Lightweight Endpoint Protection Solution With Anti-Virus Protection
(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) SAN JOSE, CA, September 30 / MARKET WIRE/ --
SkyRecon? Systems (www.skyrecon.com), the
premier provider of integrated, proactive endpoint security solutions,
today announced that it has launched StormShield Anti-Virus Protection
(AVP) -- an integrated anti-virus and anti-spyware protection available as
part of its unified endpoint protection platform, StormShield? Security
Suite.
The addition of the AVP security service, part of the StormShield Security
Suite, provides an unprecedented level of protection for banking,
financial, government, retail, and other institutions looking for 360?
protection from attack, loss, theft, and misuse of their business laptops,
desktops, servers, applications, and information. The new endpoint security
service complements the StormShield Host IPS and Desktop Firewall services
to provide an additional layer of attack prevention and remediation coupled
with additional information to help isolate attempted breaches and
outbreaks.
Licensed from Panda Security, the customized signature-based anti-virus and
anti-spyware engine provides some of the most efficient detection and
repair capabilities available in the market, where, according to
Av-Test.org, PandaLabs is currently the fastest laboratory in the industry
in providing complete updates to its users. Panda Security's engine is a
natural fit for StormShield as the innovative and unique security model
developed by Panda automatically analyzes and classifies thousands of new
malware samples every day, allowing StormShield to protect against far more
threats than the products of any other company.
Available now, StormShield version 5.1 introduces the following new
features:
-- StormShield Anti-Virus Protection (AVP): Lightweight endpoint security
solution with integrated anti-virus/anti-spyware protection for fixed
drives, removable drives, and email
-- Support for Windows Vista SP1 and Windows Network Access Protection
(NAP)
-- Numerous functionality additions within the already-powerful and
dynamic policy enforcement function; anti-virus/anti-spyware policy, event-
derived rules, temporary policy actions
-- The Flexible Data Encryption (FDE) service supports multiple Smart
Card technologies along with improved key management
-- Added ability to control the Windows clipboard, print-screen, and drag-
n-drop functions
SkyRecon's partnership with Panda Security, along with its own ongoing and
recent vulnerability research, enable the
innovative endpoint security vendor to be proactive in responding to
customer needs and adds to its strategic technological and business
relationships with other industry leaders such as Microsoft, Juniper,
VMware, and SanDisk.
StormShield Security Suite offers integrated system protection, data
protection, and access control in a multi-layered, light-weight single
endpoint security suite, providing: anti-virus/anti-spyware, device control, data encryption, application control, host-based intrusion prevention
(HIPS), system firewall, wireless security, and network access control (NAC).
