Simpler, lighter and safer protection for businesses from F-Secure

F-Secure Press Releases

Mar 18, 2010:


F-Secure’s renewed security
solutions protect businesses from the rapidly increasing number of
targeted malware attacks.

Helsinki, Finland – March 18, 2010:
Targeted online attacks against companies are increasing at an alarming
rate and are now at an all-time high, according to Mikko Hypponen,
Chief Research Officer at F-Secure. Speaking at the recent RSA
conference in San Francisco, he said, “We have seen both the volume and
sophistication of the attacks increase significantly during the last
year. Criminals are targeting corporate bank accounts more actively and
we are also seeing a clear increase in targeted espionage attacks, which
are set to double this year if the current pace continues.”

Faced with this challenging threat landscape, F-Secure has renewed
its business solutions portfolio through technological innovation and
major performance improvements.

F-Secure F-Secure launches protection for Macs

F-Secure Press Releases

Mar 04, 2010:


As Macs’ share of the consumer
market grows, F-Secure answers the call for Mac Protection, designed to
provide security without slowing down performance.

Helsinki, Finland – March 4, 2010:
Macs are safer in today's threat landscape and their owners come across
far less malicious software than the average PC owner. However — safe is
not the same as secure.

Sean Sullivan, Security Advisor at F-Secure says, “Houses
located in a safer neighborhood are not technically more secure from
burglary. Most of today's Macs just happen to exist in a safer online
environment and aren't being targeted by cyber-criminals. Criminal's
return on investment is simply better in the PC world. ”

A growing number of F-Secure's customers live in households with
using both PCs and Macs and they are increasingly asking us to secure
their irreplaceable content and not just their computers. F-Secure
Online Backup is an example of fulfilling this need. As the share of
Macs increase, so too does the security threat against Mac users. There
are already several trojans and backdoors ready to infect unprotected
Macs.
