ESET Announces Availability of Antivirus for Smartphones
MarketWatch
The increasing quantity of personal and company data stored on
these devices, including data unknowingly stored in browser caches, make
mobile devices especially vulnerable to malware and other malicious
exploits. By utilizing ESET’s NOD32 scanning technology,
this lightweight anti-malware software has been optimized to proactively
protect mobile devices from the latest malicious attacks. The addition
of spam protection for SMS messaging adds another layer of security. “After experiencing performance issues with a
mobile antivirus solution offered by a large security vendor, I
downloaded ESET Mobile Antivirus when it became available in beta form
because I had used ESET NOD32 for years and had been extremely impressed
with the accuracy and speed of the desktop solution,”
said Walter Goddard a service manager at Superwinch Inc. “Aside
from the peace of mind ESET provides by proactively protecting me from
malicious attacks, the greatest benefit is that it has virtually no
impact on my phone’s performance. ”
One of the biggest challenges to providing mobile security for smaller
platforms like smartphones is their inherently limited memory,
processing, battery and bandwidth capabilities. With its light
footprint, efficient use of processing power, ability to scan removable
memory devices and compact update files, ESET Mobile Antivirus
effectively delivers protection against attacks, within the constraints
of mobile devices.

GFI MailEssentials can detect and block phishing emails as well as add email management tools to the mail server: disclaimers, mail monitoring, Internet mail reporting, list server, server-based auto replies and POP3 downloading. It also ships at a price that is 35% cheaper than any of GFI’s competitors. The latest version, GFI MailEssentials 14, ships with SpamRazer, an additional anti-spam engine that provides a second layer of protection and highly effective filtering out-of-the-box. It has been designed to be very simple to use and because it is frequently updated, the latest spam attacks such as NDR spam, CNN spam, MSNBC spam and many more are caught without the need to tweak or train the product. With SpamRazer filtering, IP reputation filtering, Bayesian and other advanced anti-spam technology modules, an ultra high capture rate is obtained as well as a market-leading low rate of false positives thereby ensuring that good and important emails are not classified as spam. To further improve the overall performance of the Microsoft Exchange Server where GFI MailEssentials is installed, Version 14 hooks into the Exchange Server at the SMTP protocol level. This means that Exchange will not have to download every single email before GFI MailEssentials can reject it as spam.
