Outpost Security Suite Pro 8.0 Free Download Build 4164.652.1856
Here are some key features of “Outpost Security Suite Pro”:
·
Proactive security
Preemptive threat protection:
· Outpost Security Suite Pro provides the first line of defense against
rogue software by proactively controlling how programs behave and
interact on a PC. The Host Protection safeguard, which proactively
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 analyzing 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.
Self-protection:
· Today’s malware frequently seeks to shut down security software to
make its infection process easier. By incorporating solid tamper-proof
protection for all its components, Outpost Security Suite Pro makes it
impossible for anyone except the authorized user of the program to
disable or close active protection.
·
Efficient anti-malware
360-degree malware defense:
· Both anti-virus and anti-spyware capabilities are provided through the
universal anti-malware module, which ensures that your computer is kept
clean of any malicious program that might infect while you’re surfing
the web. The on-access monitor constantly watches for instantly
disinfects or removes any malware objects found in key areas of the PC,
while the on-demand scanner lets you scan for and remove threats on
hard-disks, network folders, DVDs, or external storage devices at your
convenience. Email attachments are checked in real time as they leave or
arrive, and you can move any suspicious file to the quarantine area for
later review.
Scheduled scans & exclusions:
· You can set up a schedule for regular malware scans. Additionally, you
can specify locations and/or file types to exclude from regular scans,
provided you are certain these locations and/or file types are clean.
Lightweight protection:
· SmartScan, the intelligent file sensing monitor, scans only the
modified portions of the file system, avoiding repeat scans of files
that have not changed since the last scan. The fast and intelligent
anti-malware engine has no impact on overall system performance and can
operate in the background while you work.
·
Network security & continuity
Connection security:
· The two-way firewall monitors your computer’s inbound and outbound
connections and prevents local and remote unauthorized network access.
It conceals access ports, making your presence on the Internet
invisible. The ethernet protection module guards your LAN connection and
prevents internal sabotage by controlling the transmission of data over
the network. This eliminates the potential for data such as chat
windows or authenticated browser sessions to be delivered to the wrong
destination or intercepted while in transit.
Application access control:
· The firewall controls which programs are allowed to access the
Internet, proactively protecting your PC against zero-day threats and
malware attempts to phone home.
Comprehensive coverage:
· Outpost Security Suite Pro secures all types of connections (Ethernet,
WiFi, DSL, cable, cellular, and dial-up), automatically applying the
necessary security settings when the computer is connected to a new
provider.
Intrusion protection:
· The Attack Detection plug-in automatically repels known types of hacker attacks from your computer.
·
Control & monitoring
Network activity monitoring:
· Outpost’s Network Activity Monitor shows every connection your PC
makes with other computers on the Internet or local network, so you can
see what’s happening on your PC all the time and quickly close down any
unauthorized connections.
Event logging:
· The Log Viewer provides a detailed and complete history of computer
activity, enabling you to review what’s happened on your computer in the
past or pinpoint a problem early on and correct it. Customized logging
ensures you get only the information you want from Outpost, disregarding
repetitive or irrelevant events. You can even configure exclusions for
certain types of communications, such as NetBIOS or P2P traffic.
Password-protection, multiple configuration profiles:
· You can set up passwords to protect your configuration from accidental
or deliberate modification, as well as create and use multiple
configuration profiles to suit your current risk or tolerance exposure.
For experienced users, the ability to construct multiple restore points
through the save/load configuration command is a big plus while
experimenting with firewall settings
·
Compatibility
Adaptive firewall rules:
· When traveling with your laptop, or changing ISP, you don’t have to
manually adjust your security for new connection settings because it
will be done automatically. By designating connection-specific
parameters such as DNS or gateway server addresses as environment
variables, your computer is automatically equipped to protect the new
connections as soon as it registers the change.
Entertainment mode for uninterrupted gameplay and video viewing:
· While you play full-screen games or watch videos on your PC, Outpost’s
Entertainment Mode ensures the program won’t interrupt you with alerts
if it detects new activity. New activity notifications are handled in
the background without sacrificing current protection levels. You can
customize which applications will automatically trigger the switch to
Entertainment Mode.
Support for 64-bit Windows:
· Outpost Security Suite Pro supports the new Windows XP x-64 operating
system and is fully compatible with the hardware and software
environments of 64-bit computing.
·
Privacy
Protection from spam:
· The new anti-spam engine will keep your inbox free of junk email. You
can train it to recognize and use your personal definition of spam, so
it becomes more efficient and an even greater time saver the longer you
use it.
Personal data protection:
· Any confidential information such as bank account numbers and
passwords – that you define using ID Block are blocked from leaving the
confines of your PC through communication routes such as IM, Web or
Email. This will protect you against identity theft and phishing attacks
that target critical information such as login credentials or credit
card details. Plus, it ensures that no-one else including your children –
can accidentally or deliberately disclose this information on the web
either.
Cleaner, more confident surfing:
· By managing cookies and external referral URLs, you can maintain a
high level of privacy when visiting shopping, entertainment or news
sites while at the same time allowing trusted sites to collect only the
details of your browsing habits needed to personalize pages for you.
Additionally, Outpost Security Suite Pro lets you limit the elements
displayed on web pages, providing for cleaner and faster browsing. You
can also define the sites that are permitted (or not permitted) to
display images, rotate advertising banners, execute external code such
as ActiveX or Java scripts, or deliver pop-ups.
Content management:
· The integral Content plug-in lets you compile a list of words and
phrases that will be blocked from being displayed on web sites a
particularly valuable feature for parents who do not want their children
exposed to inappropriate content. You also have the option to block
specific sites from being accessed.
·
Convenience and Ease of Use
Automatic configuration for simplicity:
· Rules for most programs that access the Internet are applied
automatically, relieving you of the need to enter rules manually every
time a new application accesses the Internet or interacts with another
program. This approach means that for most of the time, users will not
need to deal with questions relating to Internet access, minimizing
distractions and alleviating exposure to insecure configurations. A wide
range of predefined access policies are assigned to particular
programs; the option to itemize Internet-accessing applications on
initiation or at a later date also contributes to Outpost’s usability.
ImproveNet service for easily-made configuration:
· ImproveNet is a voluntary system of program configuration aggregation
and distribution. After being reviewed and approved by Agnitum
engineers, rulesets submitted by Outpost users are distributed across
the user base, providing you with the most secure and up-to-date rules.
SmartAdvisor instant, context-sensitive help:
· If ImproveNet doesn’t have the answer, SmartAdvisor is always on hand
to help you make the right decision when configuring access information
for an application.
Automatic installation:
· The entire installation process and initial configuration are
automated for ease of use by less technical users. The Installation
Wizard, more suitable for users experienced with firewall installation
and configuration, allows for customization and the selection of
specific operational parameters.
Hands-free updates:
· Whenever an update to Outpost Security Suite Pro is released during
your license period, the program’s update module automatically retrieves
the latest version from the Agnitum server and applies it as soon as
you authorize it to do so.
