Sygate Personal Firewall PRO has redefined the
personal firewall market with a multi-layered shield of network, content, application, and
operating system security. Sygate Personal Firewall PRO protects your system from intrusions
designed to exploit vulnerabilities in Internet and Intranet communication. It is the
ultimate desktop security solution trusted by professionals and relied upon by millions of
users.
Network Layer -- Secure Internet Connections
Sygate Personal Firewall PRO
is the first personal firewall that offers real protocol driver-level protection, preventing
hostile programs such as Trojan Horses and malicious mobile code from accessing the network
using their own protocol driver. With newly added network layer protection measures and
existing application level protection, Sygate Personal Firewall PRO provides complete
security from the network to the application layer.
Content Layer -- Secure Trusted
Traffic
Sygate Personal Firewall PRO is the first personal firewall with an
application-based intrusion detection system (IDS). Network layer protection can ensure the
inbound network packets are legitimate, but it can do little about the contents hiding in
the packets. The high performance intrusion detection engine in Sygate Personal Firewall PRO
monitors network traffic content, and uses pattern matching to detect a variety of attacks
and probes, such as buffer overflows and stealth port scans.
Application Layer --
Secure Component Integrity
Sygate Personal Firewall PRO secures systems from intrusions
that exploit vulnerabilities in applications to execute attacks. Sygate Personal Firewall
PRO verifies the integrity of every application that attempts to communicate through a
fingerprint that includes a MD5 checksum. In addition to that, Sygate Personal Firewall PRO
authenticates application dynamic link libraries (DLLs), preventing hostile programs that
masquerade as authorized applications from compromising users data or
system.
Operating System Layer -- Secure Process Interactions
Sygate Personal
Firewall PRO is the first personal firewall that integrates meaningful operating system
layer protection, guarding the legitimacy of outbound traffic. Sygate Personal Firewall PRO
blocks any traffic generated before its own service starts up, eliminating the brief
security policy vacuum. Sygate Personal Firewall PRO can automatically terminate known
attacks such as Trojans, Denial of Service (DoS) Zombies. Sygate Personal Firewall PRO also
has defense mechanisms that prevent malicious code/and or users from disabling or exiting
the personal firewall.
By building a multi-layered shield around a system, Sygate
Personal Firewall PRO provides around-the-clock and multiplex protection for data integrity
and system safety. No wonder it is the ultimate desktop security
solution.
