ESET's NOD32 Antivirus to be at GITEX 2005

To-date NOD32 2.5 is one of only two security companies worldwide that have received Checkmark's certification for anti-Spyware.

The newest version of NOD32 v2.5 detects and stops a wide range of spyware and malware using ThreatSense™ technology, a single highly optimized engine which proactively detects and eliminates viruses, Trojans, spyware and even some phishing attacks in real-time, without the need for updates. ThreatSense is a sophisticated system of advanced heuristics, which goes beyond traditional signatures or passive heuristics by proactively decoding and analyzing applications in order to identify the types of increasingly complex malicious behavior characteristic of today's evolving threats. Additionally, because NOD32 2.5 consumes very little memory, it doesn't sacrifice network or desktop performance.

With NOD32 v2.5, ESET is presenting ThreatSense.NET, NOD32's integrated Early Warning System. ThreatSense.NET is an intelligent detection system that uses ESET's unique ThreatSense advanced heuristics technology to monitor global malware epidemics. ESET's customer base can opt-in to automatically provide ESET's ThreatLab researchers with anonymous data about new threats that NOD32's advanced heuristics technology detects. The information and data ThreatSense.NET gathers continually enhances ESET's heuristics engine to proactively detect subsequent waves of new malware. This bi-directional, real-time feedback loop enhances the level of protection for ESET's customers worldwide.

Neo Neophytou Director of the company says: "We are going to be present at GITEX 2005, for the second time and our aim is to increase NOD32 brand awareness and recruit additional specialized partners to market this great product in this region. The best place to do this is at Gitex given the shows popularity, its focus and its appeal to the technology markets around the region and beyond!"
