CyberSoft News For January 2006
Latest CyberSoft Product Information
Product Information
CyberSoft continues to upgrade the VFind products to make the computer
security software easier for customers. In mid-February, CyberSoft will release
VFind Security ToolKit (VSTK) 170 which is an upgrade from the current VSTK 169.
The VFind Security ToolKit boasts the world’s first UNIX virus scanner and a
unique heterogeneous design that allows for complete protection, even in
today’s multi-platform networks. VSTK 170 will improve reliability,
functionality, performance and integration. With all these upgrades, VSTK 170
will require LESS memory. Cybersoft constantly works on finding ways to improve
all of its products. Customers with current Maintenance and Support contracts
will be eligible for a free VSTK 170 upgrade when the product is officially
released.
Improvements in SafeInternetEmail (SIE) 5.0 will be available to all active
customers in mid-January of 2006. The overall performance of SIE 5.0 has been
outstanding, and we are working to remove any bugs found. Similar to all of
CyberSoft’s other products, we work continuously to improve the features
available to make it perform better for you.
SIE will incorporate SpamAssassin in future additions. While CyberSoft
believes that its three-token Bayes filter is superior to SpamAssassin’s
two-token filters, we have come to recognize that customers prefer having
SpamAssassin because of name recognition. This was also the case when VHS video
tape won out over Betamax, which was a superior technology. What the customers
demand is what they receive. Engineering studies for conversion to SpamAssassin
within SIE are concluding now. The VFind Turbo anti-virus will remain the same.
Look for further announcements on this topic.
SIE Turbo Performance Improvements
Customers have contacted CyberSoft about the noticeable improvements in the
SafeInternetEmail upgrade to SafeInternetEmail (SIE) Turbo. This has improved
overall performance and reduced memory requirements simultaneously, resulting in
better throughput, especially for larger volume customers. In addition to
blocking spam using VDL and Bayesian technology, SIE Turbo also provides
effective discretionary e-mail blocking by allowing customers to create their
own patterns. As CyberSoft releases new versions of SIE, prior versions will
gradually become unsupported. All current SIE customers with an up-to-date
Maintenance & Support agreement will receive an SIE Turbo upgrade at no
cost.
VFind Quality Continues To Set The Standard
West Coast Labs has
developed the Checkmark certification system into one of the
world’s foremost certification programs. CyberSoft received and
maintains Anti-Virus Level 1 certification. CyberSoft products detect
all those viruses which are “in the wild”, meaning it has
been reported by more than one person. West Coast Labs is recognized as
being experts in the field of anti-virus testing. Another distinguished
testing facility, AV-Test.org,
performs formal testing every two weeks. Results are sent to
CyberSoft’s senior management, engineering management and the
Senior Virus Analyst. It is a global service, which benefits technology
developers, information security buyers and decision-makers. The
standards are continuously being developed to ensure that they are an
accurate reflection of real-world situations and changing technology
advances.
