Government finally onboard with computer security

by Admin on Jun.03, 2009, under Computer Security

How many years have we been an internet nation? We have collected masses of personal, financial and business information online with the only thing standing between your private data and a thief are the few number and letters you have in your security password.And if you think protecting your private information is important, just imagine the risk these threats pose to our overall economy and national security.

But, it seems the issue of internet security has taken center stage in Washington as President Obama has announced the creation of a National Cyber Security post. Calling this a transitional moment for the country, Obama says “It’s now clear this cyber threat is one of the most serious economic and national security challenges we face as a nation.”

Consider this: the computer networks that house all of the information we hold so dear are the same computer networks that attackers hit millions of times each day. This is especially true given recent events that have made headlines.

A report published in March by the universities of Cambridge and Toronto alleges the Chinese government used social-malware in the form of rootkits and Trojans to secretly monitor the Tibetan movement. A little closer to home, though, a mystery computer virus struck U.S. law enforcement computers last week, forcing the FBI and the U.S. Marshals to shut down part of their computer networks.

No matter if we’re talking about an entire country’s military security or the safety of your own nest egg, these instances highlight why the creation of a National Cyber Security post is so important (and overdue). It’s never too soon to start get protection from internet threats, but, in some cases, it can be too late.

Tizer Secure™ Beta released for testing.

Promising to revolutionize the computer security industry, Chapel Hill, NC-based X-Wire Technology has launched the beta version of its new all-in-one internet security solution, Tizer Secure™.

Tizer Secure™ Beta is a robust internet security solution for Windows PC users that offers protection, privacy and performance to Windows PC users. Its robust tools find both verified and unverified malware threats, stop infections at the point of entry, protect privacy, optimize performance and remove hard-to detect rootkits.

Tizer Secure™ Beta is built around the Adaptive Heuristics for Early Detection (AHED) and the Hidden Process Rootkit Detection systems. After Tizer Secure™ scans the computer and compares its files and processes to a database of active malware threats, its AHED scan uses its proprietary algorithm to identify any potentially harmful files, processes and rootkits that are not in the database.

To learn more about Tizer Secure™ Beta, take a look at our press release or download it directly from our site.
