How BufferZone Works


The Virtual Zone: Prevention Approach to PC Security

BufferZone creates an isolated environment called the Virtual Zone. The Virtual Zone "buffers" your PC from all forms of known or unknown attacks that originate from the Internet and external devices. All of your private information is secured in a trusted and separated environment.

How does BufferZone Technology work?

When you use the Internet, programs from the Web can enter your PC uninvited or invited (by downloading). In order to run, these programs make modifications to your hard drive and registry (operating system). Usually such modifications are harmless. However, when they're not, infected programs or files can do serious damage to your computer.

BufferZone patented "Threat Virtualization" technology

With BufferZone, all programs or files that enter your computer through downloading, browsing or uploading with external media devices are redirected to a Virtual Zone (C:\Virtual). C:\Virtual is a special directory in your computer's registry that keeps external programs and files in an isolated environment, separated from your trusted personal files and your PC's operating system.

All files, personal information, drivers and system resources remain invisible to threats and therefore protected from costly or irreversible damage. Viruses, bots, worms, Trojan Horses, phishing, keyloggers, spyware and other malicious code are prevented from covertly installing on your PC.

Modifications from infected programs, files or problematic websites will run only inside C:\Virtual. Inside the Virtual Zone, infections are easily contained and changes can be reversed. The Virtual Zone keeps your computer and trusted files clean and safe.  

Anti-virus programs identify only known viruses and then react. This conventional method allows unidentified threats to penetrate and infect your PC. BufferZone technology isolates all threats (known, unknown/zero-day) inside the Virtual Zone. This way, with BufferZone Free you can browse with Internet Explorer, chat with MSN IM, and download from the Web with total peace of mind. With BufferZone Pro, you can use all browsers and chat programs, share with P2P and use external devices.

 

Identity and Information Theft

Your personal and private information stay in a trusted environment making it impossible for spyware, keyloggers, botnets or any other Internet born malware from stealing your personal data and documents.
Sensitive areas or information on your PC that BufferZone Pro keeps separated from threats:

  • E-banking and e-shopping: Both BufferZone Free and BufferZone Pro let you browse trusted Web sites (Privacy Zone) such as e-banking and e-shopping inside a trusted environment.
  • My Documents" folder: BufferZone Pro hides and (visually) "locks" your private files and directories.

As Internet use has become more widespread, malicious attacks on computers have exponentially increased. Common anti-virus suites are effective to a point, but ill-equipped to totally contain the problem. BufferZone was designed to compliment and enhance your existing security suite.

BufferZone technology stops all threats (even those not yet identified by your anti-virus) from infecting your computer and accessing your personal data. You can finally surf anywhere, download anything, open email attachments, share, chat, and e-bank safely and securely.
