Numerous studies confirm there are dozens of new viruses and malicious software attacking users every minute. Current antivirus tools are unable to detect and stop these new attacks for days, during which time users are exposed to data theft, ID theft, and disruptions. Until new signatures are downloaded to their antivirus software, users are at the mercy of these exploits.AppGuard, developed by Blue Ridge Networks, does not need to identify the threat, scan for viruses, update its software, or slow your machine to provide protection. AppGuard is the next generation of comprehensive endpoint protection, and it stops undetectable endpoint threats from executing an attack without disrupting the user experience or bogging down operations. AppGuard uses a new strategy to stop malware and phishing attacks, zero-day attacks, watering hole attacks, drive-by-downloads, ransomware, weaponized documents, and other undetectable advanced threats. This breakthrough prevent-and-report protection is achieved by integrating Blue Ridge's patented isolation, containment, anti-execute, application control, and other advanced protection techniques. AppGuard defeats persistent threats and targeted attacks that intrusion detection, antivirus, whitelisting, sandboxing, and other traditional detect-and-respond approaches cannot and do not stop. Most importantly, users are impressed with the product because it is easy to install, easy to use, effective and affordable. Out-of-the-box, AppGuard is compatible with all Windows operating system versions, popular applications, anti-virus and other system tools.AppGuard's effectiveness was recently affirmed by Government Security News when GSN named it as the recipient of the 'Homeland Security Award for Best Anti-Malware Protection'. Products were evaluated based on increasing client organizations security, technological innovation, filling a recognized IT security need and flexibility to meet current and future organizational needs.
