Panda Security Launches New 2015 Consumer Line Featuring XMT Smart Engineering Engine
Madrid, Spain (PRWEB) August 14, 2014 -- Panda Security, The Cloud Security Company, today announced the launch of its new line of consumer solutions. Panda Global Protection 2015, Panda Internet Security 2015, Panda Antivirus Pro 2015, Panda Mobile Security 2.0 and Panda Gold Protection are the five products included in the security company’s 2015 consumer line, all of which boast the new XMT Smart Engineering engine as its main new feature.
XMT Smart Engineering defines the latest generation technology that is implemented in all new 2015 antivirus solutions. XMT includes a new heuristic protection system, behavioral analysis and blocking, management of new anti-exploit technologies, a new system to detect fresh unknown threats and an integration of Event Technologies. Each of these technologies interact with each other to achieve new levels of efficiency and greater detection and disinfection power to eradicate all threats.
The results of the latest comparative tests conducted by independent laboratories such as AV-Comparatives, AV-TEST and Virus Bulletin, where Panda Security achieved the best scores in detection, protection and resource use, showcase the excellent capabilities of the new XMT engine.
“Our PandaLabs Q2 report found that 160,000 new malware samples are created every day, and we are very much aware that we have to provide users with the best protection. The best thing is that the engine with which we’re achieving the highest detection ratios in the industry’s leading tests is the basis of all our endpoint protection products,” said Álvaro Elorriaga, Global Retail Director at Panda Security. “Our aim is to continue integrating technologies in the platform to stay in pole position when it comes to detection, and provide our users with maximum protection while having minimum impact on their systems.”
Minimum Impact on Performance
Designed to provide complete protection with minimal performance impact, Panda Security’s new 2015 Consumer solutions harness the power of cloud computing to combat the myriad security threats users face today: viruses, hackers, online fraud, identity theft and all other known and unknown threats.
“The new 2015 Consumer line is based on four pillars that have allowed us to further improve our security solutions, adjusting them to our customers’ needs: protection, lightness, flexibility and stability,” explained Hervé Lambert, Retail Product Marketing Manager at Panda Security.
Cross-Platform Protection
In addition to the new XMT engine, one of the most noteworthy features of Panda Security’s new 2015 solutions is the cross-platform protection provided by Panda Global Protection 2015 for Mac environments and even mobile devices. Furthermore, advanced users will find an additional layer of protection with Data Shield, a new module to protect user data against malware such as ransomware that tries to access sensitive information with malicious purposes (theft, deletion and encryption).
The 2015 versions of Panda Internet Security and Panda Antivirus Pro include improved protection capabilities against viruses, hackers and Wi-Fi intrusions thanks to a Wi-Fi monitor that provides full visibility into all the devices connected to the wireless network. Along with these features, Panda Internet Security 2015 helps protect users’ children, identity and data with parental control, application control and online backup functionalities.
“Despite Panda Antivirus Pro being the most basic solution in the entire consumer line –it protects Windows environments only– the truth is that it is much more than a simple antivirus. Besides providing fast and intuitive protection, it also includes other features such as a firewall, virtual keyboard, rescue kit and multimedia options," explained Hervé Lambert.
New Panda Mobile Security Now Available on Google Play
Additionally, the new Panda Mobile Security 2.0 is now available on Google Play. This solution, designed to protect Android devices, includes features such as geolocation and anti-theft to remotely locate, lock and wipe lost or stolen devices. The new version is much more intuitive and user-friendly than before.
Panda Gold Protection
Panda Security’s 2015 Consumer product line also includes Panda Gold Protection, a complete solution designed to protect users’ data regardless of the device they are using: PC, Mac, and Android smartphones, tablets and Smart TVs. Panda Gold Protection is the only product in the entire 2015 line that features Panda Cloud Drive, an online backup and sync service with 20 GB of free space which allows users to store files securely in the cloud and access them from any computer, mobile device or Web browser at any time.
