1. Kaspersky Labs Announces the Public Testing of Its Personal Firewall - Kaspersky Anti-Hacker
Kaspersky Labs announces the release of the beta version for its new
product Kaspersky Anti-Hacker and invites all those interested to take
part in its public beta testing.
Kaspersky Anti-Hacker is an easy-to-use system of defense against
hacker attacks, ensuring maximum protection of personal computers
running Windows operating systems. Thanks to its control of all network
operations on a computer (it tracks all application activity, oversees
all Internet access and filters incoming and outgoing data packets and
more), Kaspersky Anti-Hacker guarantees the confidentiality of all
stored data.
The improved beta version has additional functions, including an
additional level of security, a "self-learning" mode that has been added
to the program's settings. In addition the program now can filter data
on the application level (high level filtration), which allows the
selection of specific applications for filtration. For each application
it is possible to assign any amount of rules and when network operations
are detected it is possible to deflect them. Users will be warned and
can block any undesired actions.
Rules are defined in two ways - by type (email, message transfer
systems, browsers, conferencing software, etc.) and by the assignment of
permitted remote services and addresses for each application. This
allows, from one side, to ensure that applications are not interrupted
and from the other it secures information stored on the computer from
unauthorized outside access.
To familiarize yourself with the terms and procedures of taking part
please visit the Kaspersky Labs web site at:

The more active beta-testing participants will be awarded valuable prizes.
