This release closes a critical security gap left by leading antivirus vendors whose products lack comprehensive support for this advanced platform.
Windows x64 systems are designed to handle high-performance applications that require large amounts of memory. Unlike most 32-bit applications, security applications requiring kernel level access must be specifically rewritten to run on x64 systems. Most antivirus solutions on the market are still incompatible or offer protection only at the server level-leaving consumers and enterprises vulnerable to attacks.
NOD32 for 64-bit systems utilizes ThreatSense™ technology, a sophisticated detection system based on advanced heuristics, to proactively identify previously-unknown malware in real-time. ThreatSense is built into NOD32's single, unified scanning engine to provide comprehensive protection so users do not need to rely on additional point solutions for spyware and adware protection. Additionally, slowed network and CPU performance is not an issue for end-users and IT administrators as NOD32 consumes less than 20 MB of memory.
'Most of the major antivirus vendors do not have comprehensive anti-malware solutions for 64-bit systems, and malware writers are constantly looking for holes in security defenses. This can deter users from taking advantage of 64-bit technology because they are exposed to threats like viruses, worms and spyware,' said Neo Neophytou, MD Adaox. 'NOD32 for 64-bit versions of Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 will be presented at GITEX 2005 for the first time in the Middle East .'
