ZoneAlarm Forcefield Offers Music Fans Online Protection From Dangerous Downloads

Bookmark and Share
 
Check Point Software Technologies Ltd., the worldwide leader in securing the Internet, unveiled a public beta of the new ZoneAlarm ForceField software. In addition to protecting from downloads the software also aims to protect from identity theft, spyware and all other viruses. Each year more and more consumers use online shopping to purchase music, movies and other entertainment items. ZoneAlarm ForceField surrounds consumers with a "bubble of security" as they surf the web.

ZoneAlarm ForceField is the first virtualized, on-demand browser security solution to enable consumers to bank and shop online, or surf dangerous areas of the Internet without fear or limitation. Built from the ground-up specifically to fight the emerging classes of browser-based Web threats, ForceField also erases all personal information after a Web browsing session to further protect consumer privacy online. Features include browser virtualization, powerful anti-phishing technology, ZoneAlarm's Spy Site Blocker (also found in the award-winning ZoneAlarm Internet Security Suite) and additional dangerous download defenses.

Employing a state-of-the-art precision virtualization engine plus additional active security layers, ZoneAlarm ForceField provides distinctive and powerful protection against a breadth of Web-based attacks including browser exploits, drive-by downloads, and phishing attacks, plus keyloggers and spyware already on the PC. ForceField leverages the power of Check Point's Smart Defense Advisor, a hosted service that enables the company to offer users real-time protection against zero-hour threats.
 
Light, fast and easy-to-use, ZoneAlarm ForceField does not interfere with users' Web routines. At general availability launch expected in Q1 2008, ForceField will offer an instant version that deploys instantly to any PC without requiring manual installation to provide on-the-go, anytime use on any PC. The instant version will be included with the downloadable version of the product.
ZoneAlarm ForceField Features and Benefits
* Virtual surfing creates a duplicate, disposable version of "you" to block Web attacks, leaving users safe to surf safely
* Two-way protection not only defends the PC against Internet attacks, but also protects Web sessions from threats already on the PC-, like spyware and keyloggers.

* Privacy mode permits users to surf anywhere and type anything without leaving a single trace on the computer.

* Spy site blocking finds and blocks spyware distribution sites as users surf the Web.

* Instant ForceField gives travelers the temporary use of ForceField on borrowed computers at kiosks, on friends' PCs and at other public places.
