SOURCE: BullGuard Internet Security

SAN FRANCISCO – Award-winning internet and mobile security solutions provider BullGuard’s latest version of its internet security solution, Internet Security 2013, provides tougher resistance against online intruders, intercepting viruses based on how they behave on a computer, walling off cyber hackers and thieves, and warning users of websites harboring malicious code before they click. The software’s multiple layers of protection include parental controls and are accessible through an intuitive user interface, producing a powerful, easy-to-use online security tool that takes only minutes to install.

BullGuard’s enhanced security builds upon proprietary technology that has earned high marks from independent anti-virus and anti-malware testers, including Virus Bulletin and AV Comparatives.  The software’s protective bulwark is set in motion via advanced scanning and repairing capabilities.  Security features include:

• – Behavioural Detection and Signature-based Detection, which work in concert to identify new viruses based on their actions on a computer and check their presence against an up-to-date roster of known viruses.

• – Vulnerability Scanner, which enables scheduled or on-demand checks of installed software to detect possible security holes and furnishes links to update outdated programs.

• – Parental controls, which allow parents to monitor and block certain websites and IM chat applications and to set limits by the hour for how much time children spend on the computer.

In addition, the software includes free tools to keep machines running properly, including PC Tune Up, which scrubs the registry and frees up space, and 5GB of online storage for safeguarding important files that can be automatically backed up and accessed from another computer or mobile devices. Users also can rely on around-the-clock customer support.

“At BullGuard, our priority is always to ensure that our software is well prepared to deal with both current and future attempts to invade our privacy,” says BullGuard COO, Mike Hodges.

“The improvements and additions to BullGuard Internet Security reflect consumer demand to feel well protected when using their computer for any number of tasks. We always focus on ensuring that our software offers fast, unobtrusive performance and remains easy to use. Internet Security 2013 provides security tools, functionality and customer service that together make it one of the most comprehensive and user-friendly internet security suites on the market.”

Current users of Internet Security can upgrade to Internet Security 2013 for free. New users may purchase the software for £44.95, which provides one-year of service to cover up to 3 PCs.
