Technology, a leading innovator
of online security & privacy protection software, today announced
that it has reached an agreement with PatchLink
Corporation to incorporate its award winning SpyRemover
software into PatchLink’s Anti-Spyware
Integration Module. “Recognizing that different
organizations are facing the spyware problem from a variety of systems
support environments, we believe that the ability to gain
SpyRemover’s protection against spyware under the umbrella of PATCHLINK
UPDATE platform will be beneficial to many customers.
SpyRemover's protection against online intrusion devices such
as adware, key loggers, and Trojans is a strong complement to
PatchLink's security patch management solution," said Jesse Song,
senior
executive of InfoWorks Technology. “We are pleased to be a part of this unique, modular
approach to combining the benefits of the two products for the mutual
benefit of customers.”
The
PatchLink Anti-spyware Integration Module will give customers a fully
integrated and centrally managed security solution for spyware, adware,
key and password loggers, and other types of malicious software.
"By incorporating anti-spyware capabilities, PatchLink
gives customers the ability to address all major software security
vulnerabilities from a single enterprise-level platform, such as:
spyware/malware, key and password loggers, software mis-configurations,
and software defects that require patching," said PatchLink CEO
Sean Moshir.
About SpyRemover
SpyRemover
detects and removes more than 23,000 intrusive devices such as spyware,
adware, hijackers, keyloggers, Trojans, tracking devices, hacker tools
and other spy devices on PCs. SpyRemover is powerful and easy to
use, and its newly
designed detection and removal engine improves on the thoroughness,
accuracy, speed, and efficiency of detecting and removing spyware.
The
concerns and need for support relative to spyware are advancing
rapidly. Spyware programs
run discreetly in the background without the PC users knowledge.
They use up system resources and network bandwidth and
potentially open up an unauthorized communications channel for
external access to sensitive information.
InfoWorks Technology Company has been providing award winning SpyRemover,
SpyStopper, History
Sweeper and Popup
Free software
to both businesses and home PC users for a number of years.
These products prevent and remove spyware, thereby protecting the
integrity and general performance of PC users.
