Privatefirewall 7.0.25.3

Personal firewall and intrusion detection application Privatefirewall is an integrated desktop firewall and multi-layer intrusion prevention software delivers signature-less, zero-hour protection from known or new spyware, viruses, hacking techniques and other intrusions on Windows desktops and servers. Privatefirewall is comprised of several distinct protection layers including desktop firewall, port manager, URL filtering, process monitor, and application/system behavior modeling and anomaly detection components. Privatefirewall 5.0 evaluates WinAPI calls and analyzes a comprehensive list of system variables and security-sensitive registry keys and alerts administrators to possible malware, attack, or policy violations. Privatefirewall layered approach to PC and enterprise endpoint defense addresses the Windows vulnerabilities that hackers exploit to gain unauthorized system access and cause damage to private systems and data. Privatefirewall models and monitors system behavior to identify and block activity characteristic of known malware, hacking, phishing and other threat types so that personal computer users and IT managers within small, medium or large organizations can more effectively and proactively protect the environments and private data for which they are responsible. Internet and network security settings, untrusted web sites and IPs, and the manner in which software applications and related processes can access the Internet can be easily configured via Privatefirewall intuitive management console. Proactive, Multi-Layered Defense: · Advanced packet filtering – Proprietary stateful packet inspection technology monitors all communication between the PC and the Internet and detects and blocks all unauthorized traffic. Privatefirewall allows the simple adjustment of security levels (High/Low/Custom) to establish different degrees of security for Internet and Local Network access. · Ultimate Application Control – Highly configurable Application Control Console enables you to specify which and precisely how applications can access the Internet. · Process Detection – Prevents viruses, trojans, worms and other malware by tracking all trusted processes and providing alerts when any potentially malicious process attempts to run. · System Anomaly Detection – System Anomaly Detection Engine baselines normal usage based on system variables such as CPU utilization, thread count, and others. Normal use patterns of running applications are monitored and alerts are generated as unusual activity is detected. · Intelligent Tray Alerts – Compact, user-friendly tray alerts provide detailed information regarding security events, offer native web search for convenient investigation, and pre-set intelligent “time-out” responses. · Stealth Mode – PC is invisible when online and stealth to potential intruders. · Port Tracking and Reporting – All ports are monitored to prohibit unauthorized scanning and system intrusion. Detailed reports are generated on all port scan and other reconnaissance attempts in addition to instantaneous on-screen alerts. · Email Anomaly Detection – Privatefirewall mitigates the impact of attacks targeting email clients by tracking the volume and frequency of outbound emails. Privatefirewall alerts you and blocks unacceptable deviations from normal email activity. Application Control and Firewall Policy Management: · Monitor all traffic to and from your PC and prevent trusted applications from being “Hi-Jacked” to steal local or network-accessible files. · The Process Monitor adds an important layer of defense to conventional firewall protection by identifying process-level behavior characteristics of intrusion techniques and malware activity. · Control which applications can access the Internet, and whether to permit/block every application with each usage or make permissions permanent. Specific IPs and/or Websites can be blocked or allowed access. · Define application specific or global packet filtering rules that can be applied to incoming, outgoing or bi-directional traffic. · View or create advanced firewall reports sorted by Web, Mail, or System access attempts spanning Hours, Days, Weeks, or customized time periods. Unmatched Ease of Use: · Privatefirewall’s security presets deliver superior PC protection immediately upon installation. Setup and configuration are fully automatic right out of the box. · One-click configuration of pre-defined security settings for Home, Office, and Remote profiles eliminate complicated application tuning. · Privatefirewall conveniently detects connections to local networks and automatically sets rules that allow access within that network. · A variety of custom configuration interfaces are easily accessible for advanced users. · Privatefirewall is fully integrated with Windows XP Security Center. Requirements: · 486 Processor · 16MB of RAM · 5MB HD Space What’s New in This Release: · Added Restricted Rights feature which allows rights to be reduced for specific apps on the fly (via Process Detection Alerts) or via Privatefirewall GUI (Processes tab of Advanced Applications Settings). · Added log level control: Off, Low, Med, High. Low (only events with red/blue icons are logged, i.e. which are not related to any existing rules), Med (all except restricted IPs, port scans, invalid packet flags, dropped due to SPI), High (all firewall events are logged). · Expanded max alert time-out and added user options to control length of time-out period. · Added ability to right mouse click event in FW log to add IP to the Blocked or Trusted List. · Addressed full-screen game compatibility issues.
