CyberGuard's Webwasher Fills Gap in Internet Explorer
Hole
TeWebwasher's CSM solution proactively secures networks against
common threats regardless of point of origin. Positive traffic
is scanned and reconfigured before entering the network; harmful
files are filtered before any negative impact can occur. In relation
to the fresh IE hole, the proactive scanner detects and filters
harmless HTML pages on HTTP or HTTPS servers and HTML formatted
e-mails. While Microsoft has not yet issued a new patch to protect
users from this hole, tests have shown that CyberGuard customers
deploying the latest Webwasher technology are secure.
"Our customers demand intelligent, proactive security,"
states Horst Joepen, president of CyberGuard's Webwasher division.
"They do not want to wait and see if their network is compromised.
Our solution allows them to carry out their business and stay
ahead of the latest security loopholes."
Proactive filtering technology in Webwasher version 5.1 protects
against malicious files and is part of Webwasher Antivirus and
Webwasher Content Protection products.
