WHY SPEED MATTERS

Response delays of a few hours have a significant impact on the amount of damage a virus outbreak can cause in an organization. This is because the amount of infected messages or machines in major virus outbreaks typically follows a roughly exponential curve.

COMBINING PROACTIVE AND REACTIVE TECHNOLOGIES

All antivirus products provide protection against old viruses and threats. The difference comes in how well they react to new, unknown threats. Antivirus products are typically based on two technologies – proactive techniques, such as heuristics and sandboxing, and reactive signature based techniques. An antivirus product can either use only one or combine both technologies as is the case with Security Shield 2008 - powered by F-Secure Antivirus.

Proactive technologies are, however, not able to catch one hundred percent of viruses and they can also generate a high number of false positives leading to potential productivity losses. Criminals also commonly test their malware against these proactive solutions in order to find vulnerabilities. Thus, proactive technologies can never fully replace reactive signature-based solutions and that is why speed of response is crucial in virus protection. F-Secure’s renowned ability to respond to diverse, unpredictable threats as they appear makes F-Secure products and services your most reliable choice.

24/7 RESEARCH

Antivirus products are only as good as the research and dedication behind them. The F-Secure Data Security Lab, staffed with globally recognized virus experts, is on call 24-hours a day, responding to new and emerging threats. F-Secure’s record fast, automatic updates ensure that the best available protection is always at your disposal.

* AV-Test.org, an independent antivirus testing lab, provides response time testing during virus outbreaks in addition to their detection testing for a wide range of antivirus products. AV-Test.org testing and results are used in major publications and IT security magazines worldwide such as PC-World, PC-WELT, Virus Bulletin, ComputerBild, CHIP and c't.
