Outpost Security Suite Pro provides the first line of defence against rogue
software by pro-actively controlling how programs behave and interact on a PC.
The Host Protection safeguard, which pro-actively monitors for and blocks the
kinds of sophisticated hacking techniques used to compromise or steal data,
means that malicious activity is no longer possible. By analysing threats and
displaying actionable alerts, Host Protection stops zero-day attacks and shields
the computer against inappropriate operations, rendering it “defended in
advance” against security risks like botnets and inadvertent data disclosure.
This is the first public preview of the forthcoming Outpost Security Suite
2008, which is now Vista compatible.
The major new functionality is an AutoLearn functionality. Outpost has
sometimes been criticised in the past for forcing users to make too many
decisions, so we’ve introduced this functionality to deal specifically with this
issue. To do this, OSS now “memorizes” users’ responses over time, along with
individual settings for Internet-connected applications, to create a pattern of
responses that enables the software to predict and automatically apply an
appropriate response for similar decision scenarios in the future.
Note that this version is only a beta preview and has certain limitations.
The anti-spam module isn't included, the web control module is not included and
the realtime email scanning system isn't working in this first release.
