Alert) security software, is being hailed as an innovative platform. The Penetrator received the PC World Innovation award for its security features.
“It is easy to win a general award, but an innovation award tells you that this really breaks new ground,” said Victor Christiansenn, owner of SecPoint.
The WiFi security system includes enhanced security features as it works to detect and scan vulnerable areas in a wireless network. The Penetrator security system is designed to be integrated in an ordinary laptop, and will help crack and prevent any malicious encryptions and codes from attacking the network and computer. The software also protects passwords and keys and resists penetration by other malware or hacker attacks.
This application was recognized by PC World as an innovative security software.
SecPoint officials say the company plans to unveil an updated version of Penetrator within one year. This new version is expected to have additional user-friendly features.
“It has cost us lot of working hours, but it is worth the toil when you get such fine reviews,” Christiansenn said.
Another feature of the Penetrator WiFi Security system is that it can help prevent spam from reaching mailboxes, regardless of the e-mail system in use. It also can help secure e-mail servers from worms and viruses without rebooting. The company says that malware is stopped before it even enters the network. The WiFi Security system also prevents hackers and intruders from stealing important information which may prove costly for businesses and entrepreneurs.
