New Release Defeats Spyware
and Preserves Confidentiality for Enterprise Network Users Relying
Upon Browser-based Network Access Points
REDWOOD CITY, Calif., -- November 17,
2004 - Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: CHKP),
the world leader in securing the Internet, today announced the immediate
availability of Check Point Integrity™ Clientless Security
3, the latest version of the company's innovative solution for securing
new network access methods and applications like SSL VPNs and web-based
email. Integrity Clientless Security 3 makes security and privacy
for new access methods even more manageable with new deployment
and automated update features.
Without requiring installation of client software, Integrity Clientless
Security 3 is unique in providing the four pillars of vital protection:
detect and disable spyware, ensure session confidentiality, enforce
security policy compliance before granting remote access, and help
users and IT remediate security issues. As a result, Integrity Clientless
Security prevents identity and password theft as well as the loss
of sensitive or proprietary data.
"New IT tools that provide 'anywhere/anytime' access increase
the productivity of enterprise users but they also increase the
risk profile for the enterprise," said Frederick Felman, vice
president of marketing, Check Point's Zone Labsâ division.
"With its ability to enforce corporate security policy, as
well as to detect and disable spyware as a condition of network
access, Integrity Clientless Security 3 makes SSL VPN and web application
technology trustworthy."
New features in Integrity Clientless Security 3 that decrease the
inherent risks of browser-based network access of the corporate
infrastructure include:
- Simple Deployment and Maintenance
- Now provides automatic updates of its spyware removal engine,
detection heuristics, and signatures.
- Complete Session Confidentiality
- Introduces a 'quarantine browser', the Integrity Secure Browser,
which prevents sensitive and proprietary data exposure through
file encryption and session cache cleaning. This is an especially
useful safeguard for users of public PCs or kiosks.
- Cross-browser support - Adds
support for a wider variety of browsers with Mozilla, Netscape,
and Opera joining existing support for Internet Explorer.
Together with the client-based solutions in Check Point's Integrity
product family, Integrity Clientless Security delivers Total Access
Protection (TAP) for the enterprise. With Total Access Protection,
all enterprise network endpoints--employee and guest PCs, remote
and local PCs, wired and wireless PCs--can be protected by Check
Point's market-leading security solutions.
Pricing, Availability and System Information
Integrity Clientless Security 3 is available now for immediate purchase.
Pricing for Integrity Clientless Security varies depending upon
volume purchased, configuration and application, with pricing beginning
at $20 per user. In addition, Integrity Clientless Security is integrated
