What's new in Outpost Network Security 2.0:
- Network anti-spyware protection
By adding a powerful anti-spyware module that combines proactive monitoring and an on-demand scanner, Outpost now reliably protects endpoints against spyware. Any spyware that gets onto a client – such as a salesperson's laptop – is effectively contained. It is prevented from phoning home confidential corporate data when the laptop is reconnected to the network and from hopping across network connections to infect other clients. No spyware also minimizes the number of popup ads and other temptations faced by users when they're on the web, so you'll also benefit from improved productivity. Proactive spyware monitoring protects the integrity of corporate assets and reduces helpdesk calls, making a positive contribution to the bottom line.
- Targeted information protection
Another benefit of Outpost Network Security 2.0 is targeted information protection. Simply identify blocks of text or character strings (such as passwords, confidential financial information, or employee identification information) and that data is prevented from ever leaving the network.
- Flexible configuration for different user groups
The addition of group support gives administrators extra flexibility in managing their endpoints by assigning specific configurations to selected user groups. This enables IT to designate customized network access policies for specific groups depending on risk and exposure levels – for example, sales laptops will likely require stricter protection than accounting's desktops.
- An even tougher firewall
