Free security for home users
- IT TOPICS:Security
I have long admired eEye Digital Security. They appear to always be in the know on the latest technical vulnerabilities. It recently came to my attention that they will be offering a suite of tools for free to home users. This sounds a lot better than the Yahoo!-Norton deal. They have offered free security tools for as long as I have known about them. Check it out.
The company sells a product called Blink® Endpoint Intrusion Prevention. According to this story, the company will be offering free to home users, a "Blink Personal" version. The software "will include the same protocol-based intrusion prevention, anti-spyware tools, identity theft defense, and personal firewall as the enterprise-grade version." This is a wonderful thing.
Keep an eye out for the announcement. I checked their website and while you can download an evaluation copy of the enterprise version, I didn't readily see an announcement for the personal edition. Let me know what you think.
