PERSONAL PAPARAZZI – SPYWARE KILLS BUSINESS SECURITY
CyberSoft Targets emerging threats with Pattern Authority offering OEM’s the ability to prevent Spyware from entering corporate networks
The Internet has offered corporations more productive ways of doing business with consumers and other businesses. This tangle web businesses depend on is also the preferred medium for electronic theft. With so many unprotected systems and end users that misunderstand what they are downloading, the issue of spyware, until recently, has gone under the radar. Some spyware companies estimate that 14 out of every 100 corporate computers are infected with spyware that attempts to acquire intellectual property. The majority of spyware, unlike a virus, is transferred through web traffic as opposed to email attachments. Once installed on a system its goal is to go undetected while analyzing usage behaviors and creating revenue through pop up advertising. The faster businesses respond to evolving threats, the faster the threats evolve.
As OEM’s scramble to offer complete perimeter protection, CyberSoft has consolidated the need for multiple scanning engines. As part of the complete offering for an OEM, CyberSoft is including the ability for OEM’s to protect customers from Spyware using Pattern Authority.
Security companies that are considering alternative Anti-Virus solutions should evaluate Pattern Authority as a first step integration plan. In addition to AV scanning you will also receive the ability to scan for Spyware and spam using the same engine.
