WHAT'S NEW IN KASPERSKY
INTERNET SECURITY 2010:Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 is a
comprehensive data protection tool, which provides not only anti-virus
protection but also protection against spam and network attacks. The
application's components also enable users to protect their computers against
currently unknown threats and phishing, and to restrict users' access to the
Internet. The multifaceted protection covers all channels for data transfer and
exchange. All components can be flexibly configured, allowing users to tailor
Kaspersky Internet Security to their specific needs.
New in
protection:
* Improved HIPS (Host-based Intrusion Prevention System)
technology assigns a danger rating to unknown programs. The Application Control
component uses HIPS to define rules for new and already known applications,
which may restrict their access to the file and operating systems.
*
Innovative Sandbox technology has been implemented, which uses virtualization to
create a secure environment for program execution. New software can be tested in
this environment, which isolates the host operating system from all changes.
There is no limit to the number of Internet browsers and other applications
which can run simultaneously in a sandbox.
* Increased use of Kaspersky
Security Network considerably decreases the threat response time, due to
information received from other users. The service aims to minimize the time
necessary to detect and neutralize new types of threats. When a user starts a
program, the service checks it against white lists and Urgent Detection System
lists on Kaspersky Lab's servers.
* The protection of personal user data has
been extended and enhanced. For instance, Kaspersky Internet Security
automatically prevents inadvertent users from accessing known phishing web
sites, and blocks keylogger programs, which are designed to steal passwords and
access codes.
* The new Script Emulator analyzes the behavior of scripts, to
assess their potential harmfulness. It simulates the operation of the Java
Script and Visual Basic Script engines, which are supported by default in
Microsoft Internet Explorer and are built in to Microsoft Windows.
* The new
IM Anti-Virus component ensures the safe operation of most instant messaging
applications. The component scans messages for the presence of malicious
objects.
* Improvements to the Virtual keyboard component provide safer entry
of personal information, by protecting data from being intercepted by spyware
and preventing screenshot capture.
* Significant improvements to the
Anti-Spam component now provide two methods for detecting spam: exact and
expert. Exact methods apply strict filtering criteria to a message, which
determine unambiguously whether or not a message is spam. Expert methods
investigate email messages that have passed strict filtering criteria. As such
messages cannot be unambiguously considered spam, the component calculates the
probability that they are spam.
* Components of Kaspersky Internet Security
can be temporarily disabled, to improve computer performance. This can be useful
during the use of resource-hungry applications such as network games.
*
Monitoring access to phishing websites and protection against phishing attacks
are performed by scanning links in messages and on web pages, and also by using
the database of phishing addresses when an attempt to access websites is
detected. You can check whether a web address is included in the phishing
database, using the Web Anti-Virus, IM Anti-Virus or Anti-Spam component.
*
Improvements have been made to all the application's existing components,
including the Firewall, Parental Control, and Anti-Spam components, and
particularly the Heuristic analyzer.
* The anti-virus kernel of Kaspersky
Internet Security 2010 has been significantly improved, to provide more
efficient malware detection. The application shows higher performance on Windows
Vista operating systems, as compared to previous versions of Kaspersky Internet
Security.
* Kaspersky Internet Security includes the URL scanning module
managed by Web Anti-Virus. This module scans links on the web page, comparing
the website addresses against its database of suspicious and phishing websites.
This module is provided for Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox
browsers as a plug-in.
* The update procedure has been improved. Kaspersky
Internet Security's databases are now updated not only according to their
schedule, but also when new security threats appear.
* The creation of Rescue
Disks has been improved. The service should be used when the infection reaches a
level at which the computer cannot be disinfected using either anti-virus
applications, or malware removal utilities such as Kaspersky AVPTool. The
improved Rescue Disks provide more efficient disinfection because malware
programs do not gain control when the operating system is being
loaded.
New in the application interface:
* The application interface
has been completely redesigned, to make Kaspersky Internet Security
significantly more accessible to first-time users.
* Kaspersky Internet
Security features an automatic mode in which the application automatically makes
optimal decisions, so avoiding excessive requests to the user.
