The Internet is a wonderful place for networking, searching for information and entertainment, but it is also where malicious software and other threats lurk. ESET Smart Security 4 keeps your PC safe with advanced proactive detection that blocks most known and undiscovered threats hours or days faster than other Internet security technologies.
Key Features
Smarter Scanner – Threats don't always enter in
ways you expect. ESET Smart Security inspects SSL-encrypted
communication channels like HTTPS and POP3S, and intelligently scans
compressed files to find threats that other products miss. ESET's Smart
Optimization feature makes file scanning faster than ever.
Time-saving Firewall – New Learning Mode saves time
by automatically creating firewall rules by observing how end users use
the network, while offering advanced firewall modes for power users.
Pair customized firewall profiles with trusted network zones and have
appropriate firewall rules applied automatically based on detected
network presence.*
Trusted Zone Authentication – Identify trusted
network zones by network configurations (a configurable combination of
host/DNS/DHCP server IP address, wireless SSID, connection profile,
etc) or securely authenticate into a network using ESET Authentication
Server.*
Upgraded Antispam – ESET Smart Security now takes
care of annoying spam with a smaller, faster, and even more effective
spam filter.
Removable Media Security – Threats can enter your
PC from removable media such as USB thumb drives. For self-running
media, ESET Smart Security scans autorun.inf and associated files when
the medium is inserted, in addition to scanning any file on any
removable device when it is accessed, or during a full-scan of the
media.
System Tools – ESET SysInspector and ESET SysRescue
simplify diagnosing and cleaning of infected systems by allowing deep
scans of system processes to find hidden threats, and creating bootable
rescue CD/DVD or USB drives to help you repair an infected computer.
Self Defense – ESET Smart Security has built-in
technology to prevent malicious software from corrupting or disabling
it, so you can rest assured your system is always protected.
* Available with version 4.2
