Security Suite
The Computer Security Suite is the best fit for home and Small Office Home Office (SOHO) users who want their layered security bundled into one product. The suite solution is also strongly recommended for Laptop users who attach to unfamiliar networks.
How we choose the products to recommend
For the last seven years, we’ve done extensive research in the computer security market place evaluating technologies, seeing who are the thought leaders and solid companies as well as who is getting circumvented the most. (Yes solutions can be circumvented. There are even web sites that hackers use to test their Malware against the latest solutions). Many levels of criteria determine what security suites are the best fit for the users needs.
Selection Criteria
The main set of criteria in selecting the products we recommend, is the security suite must provide superior protection, be easy to use, be reliable and easy to maintain, consistently excel above the rest in independent test lab results and show innovation in protecting our customers.
At a minimum the security suite shouldn’t be popping up messages asking the user questions that they don’t understand or know how to properly respond.
The Components
There are different ways to bundle protection and we feel in today’s threat environment the best solutions have their roots in Firewalls. Our recommended security suites have a Personal Firewall, Anti Malware and Anti Spam as a minimum. We feel these are absolutely the best solutions available.
Having a personal firewall (like in a security suite), may conflict with a secured hardware firewall. There is a delicate balance between being secure and being able to work. Be sure to understand what each layer is doing for troubleshooting purposes.
