Outpost Firewall 50 Business License Description

Being online is fraught with dangers: Internet worms, spyware agents, Trojan horses, hijackers and more can wreak havoc, causing anything from slow performance to system crashes to full-blown identity theft. And to provide you with the kind of protection you need in these days of cyberthieves and online extortionists, your firewall must be able to monitor all inbound and outbound traffic and protect you from any unauthorized intrusion by rendering your PC invisible to anything that you haven????t authorized to see it. Outpost Firewall Main Features: Security Attack Detection The Powerful Intrusion Detection System (IDS) built into the program protects from existing and future hacker attacks. The IDS module screens inbound data and determines its legitimacy either by comparing it against a set of known attack fingerprints or by performing behavior evaluation analysis. Anti-spyware defenses and privacy protection Outpost's built-in anti-spyware safeguards your computer against spyware infection and the loss of confidential information. Spyware is blocked at every possible stage ?installation, activation, transmission of information, and re-installation. No more nagging pop-ups, no browser modifications, no search and homepage hijacking, and no unauthorized leaking of data from the computer. Plus, any data you define as confidential is forever blocked from being sent anywhere. Even if you choose to disable active spyware protection during computer-intensive tasks such as playing an online PC game, new network connections are proactively verified to be spyware-free. Unique network security The Ethernet protection module combats attacks on Internet and network connections, including: interception of outbound chat sessions, spoofing attacks designed to disable or disrupt connections and illegal communication initiation requests that trespass on your WiFi zone. Packet/Application Filtering By implementing per-process data filtering, Outpost serves as a virtual checkpoint for incoming and outgoing application data. Based on its discretion or following the user's instructions, it can configure how each particular application communicates over the LAN or the Internet. With application access rules, any unwanted program can easily be denied Internet access if the circumstances warrant it. Packet filtering is a lower-level filtration technique that allows the user to select which protocols, ports and remote addresses can be accessed from a user machine. Ports Stealthing Being visible on the network is only good when a person who sees you is authorized to do so. Outpost makes sure that the host computer is hidden from outsiders, making it unsusceptible to network probes and intruder attempts to establish rogue communication channels. Safeguarding Active Content Outpost's Active Content plug-in can selectively prevent the execution, installation and propagation of a third-party scripting code running itself surreptitiously inside the Internet browser. The browser often represents a medium for spyware, viruses and worm infestations. Attachment Quarantine The Attachment Quarantine protects Outpost users from potentially dangerous e-mail attachments that may contain viruses, worms and other malware and allows users to customize which types of attachments Outpost should block. Control Network Activity Monitoring Monitoring shows every connection between your machine and other computers on the Internet or LAN. It's a handy tool to know what???s happening on a connected PC at any given time and to allow users to quickly stop unwanted Internet communications. Events Logging Outpost Log Viewer provides users with a detailed history of their computer's online activity. Users can browse through past activities to pinpoint a potential problem and correct it early on, before damage can be done. Customized log reports ensure users get only the data they need from the program, significantly reducing the signal-to-noise ratio of typical firewall history reports. Advanced users will appreciate the opportunity to configure exclusions for certain types of communications, such as NetBIOS or P2P traffic. Content Management The Content plug-in allows users to compile a list of entries that would be blocked from being displayed throughout visited web sites. Parents that do not want their kids exposed to inappropriate content would find great use for this feature. Privacy Surfing Privacy Protection By enabling a customizable block of cookie files and external referring, users can maintain a high level of surfing confidentiality on unknown sites and at the same time be less secretive with predefined trusted sites. Embedded Code Protection By providing advanced mechanisms of Open Process Control, Hidden Process Control and Component Control, Outpost effectively protects the host system from malicious attempts of a foreign code implanted within the system to divulge personal data or hijack an application. Ease of Use Effortless Installation Two options for installation are offered to the user. Automatic installation takes care of the entire installation as well as the initial configuration phase and is most suitable for an inexperienced user. A more refined option is the Installation Wizard, which allows users to customize the process of installation and choose specific parameters. ImproveNet service to maximize user experience ImproveNet is a new online community that brings Outpost customers and Agnitum engineers together to share configurations and enable all licensed users to benefit from universally-applicable Internet access security rules. By participating in the ImproveNet network, users can automatically adjust their application access rules to protect against the latest threats. Because new rules are created and processed on a daily basis, users have a continuously updated set of access rules for the majority of existing Internet-enabled programs, sparing themselves the need to manually create their own rules and removing the possibility of errors in rule structure and application. Instant, context-sensitive help Every user prompt or request for the creation of a new rule in Outpost is accompanied by an instant automatic recommendation for the best course of action. Configuring your firewall can now be error-free, 5making your protection so much stronger, as well as increasing your understanding of the program. Automatic Program and LAN Access Rules The program automatically configures the computer LAN settings and protects it from incoming Internet connections. Predefined rules for known applications are created to spare the user the need to manually create program access rules for well-known or frequently used programs. Easy Program Updates When an update to the program has been released, it is easily deployed through the program automatic update feature, which retrieves the latest version automatically from the vendor server and applies it upon user authorization. Outpost Firewall Key Benefits: NEW! Protection from spyware and identity theft New anti-spyware capabilities built into the program protect your computer against the rapidly increasing threats from spyware and ID theft. Spyware cannot enter, activate on, or transmit information out of computers protected by Outpost. The ID Block feature lets you determine which specific items of personal information, for example bank account numbers, are blocked from ever leaving the computer. Even if you choose to disable your spyware protection during PC-intensive tasks, you will still be protected as all new network connections are proactively verified to be spyware-free. Know what's happening on your PC at all times Outpost????s Network Activity Monitor watches every connection between your computer and the Internet, alerting you immediately to any communications that may be unauthorized so you can take appropriate action. Automatic, intelligent protection against hacker attacks Outpost????s Attack Detection automatically blocks network probes, zombie attacks, and other remote attempts to access your PC, using its continually-updated intrusion definitions database. Control how applications communicate Outpost????s Component Control, Hidden Process Control, and Open Memory Control let you decide what applications and processes on your PC are allowed to do and what - if any- outbound connections they may make. Spyware can????t phone home from an Outpost-protected PC. Understand the threats Every time Outpost asks you for information regarding action to be taken, Smart Advisor helps you to choose the best course of action by displaying context-sensitive hints and live advice. So you????ll never need to wonder whether you????ve made the right security decision, and you????ll learn something new about firewall security every time. The new ImproveNet service ensures you have access to the latest application behavior rules, eliminating unnecessary requests for action and automating the task of making correct access decisions while maintaining the strongest possible protection.
