Zero Day Anti-Malware

  • Over 250,000 virus traps are already deployed.
  • Ultra high speed ‘zero-day virus’ response.
  • Best response times of just 3 seconds.
  • Performance 4,200 times faster than typical gateway anti-virus systems; which are protecting the majority of organizational networks today.
