Traditional antivirus solutions cannot protect you until after they have discovered a new threat and produced a signature to counter it. ThreatFire does not rely on signatures, but instead provides behavior-based protection. It is designed to be used alongside your existing antivirus software and it fills the gap in protection between your antivirus signature updates. ThreatFire protects you against major security threats including viruses, worms, trojans, rootkits and even some spyware. Its advanced ActiveDefense technology intelligently analyzes the behavior of processes and programs on a system and immediately halts any malicious action. It continuously monitors all activities on your PC at a very low system level and uses a proprietary combination of analytics, risk algorithms, program histories and tolerance thresholds to identify and shut down threats so you are always protected, no matter how new the threat. ThreatFire is easy to use, instantly effective, and very light on system resources.
What's new in this version:
ThreatFire 4.7 reduces confusion over threat response by significantly minimizing both the number and the type of alerts that require you to make a decision. This is made possible using the new behavior profiling and in-the-cloud techniques. It also incorporates patent-pending technology to provide greater accuracy in detecting real threats and a greater ability to avoid classifying legitimate programs as potentially malicious (false positives). ThreatFire 4.7 contains tracker technology to more accurately trace the original source of the threat and ensure that only the malicious program is quarantined and legitimate programs are unaffected. It also has added new rules for detecting both known and unknown threat outbreaks to provide better protection.
The Smart Update feature now includes several options to give you greater control over how and when updates are applied. The new update options include "download and install automatically", or "notify before installing updates".
