A key part of our strategy is to offer these solutions, along with existing features, in a straightforward, automated fashion to bring users maximum control with minimum maintenance and interruptions." "With the new version we've added parental controls to help manage every aspect of a child's internet use, along with tune-up tools to keep a PC running smoothly.

"Our focus at BullGuard has always been to provide a combination of comprehensive security and usability," says Claus Villumsen. Consequently, instead of merely catching viruses once they've been listed in the virus signature database, Behavioural Detection identifies viruses which behave abnormally based on file, registry, process, and network events on the computer and shuts them off.Īlong with new Parental Controls, PC Tune Up and a revitalised interface designed to put the most important tools and information close to hand, BullGuard builds on its already extensive list of features, which still includes a massive 5GB of free online storage, fast-response direct customer support, a vulnerability scanner and free upgrades for existing users - the only vendor to offer this service. Behavioural Detection identifies threats long before traditional methods, and is based on the behaviour of the virus. Part of the reason for BullGuard's excellent level of security is the use of behavioural detection, which is very different from traditional virus detection and brings the Antivirus engine to the front line with radical technology that ensures outstanding catch rates. "Without compromising the integrity of our core security and protection, we've added new features to maintain the software's accepted position as one of the most comprehensive suites around, as well as improving existing features to make them easier to use and more effective at combating emerging threats." "We're building on that success with V12," says Claus Villumsen, CTO at BullGuard.

The previous version of the software was awarded full certification at independent test lab AV-Test Labs, an Advanced+ rating with AV-comparatives and an overall score of 9 out of 10 with Virus Bulletin, outperforming many of the leading rival suites in a range of categories. Building on previous success, the new edition offers a range of improvements and new key features to help streamline security for the modern user, making it one of the most comprehensive solutions on the market. London, 12 th October 2011: BullGuard, specialists in user-friendly PC and mobile security solutions for consumers, has announced the release of the latest version of its award-winning Internet Security suite with version 12.
