Panda Software protects users of new Windows Vista operating system


Cape Town, 01 Feb 2007

Panda Software security solutions will protect users of the new Windows Vista operating system, providing them with the most advanced protection technologies against all types of Internet-borne threats.

Panda Software already has Windows Vista-compatible versions of Panda Antivirus 2007, for home users, and Panda ClientShield, for protecting workstations in corporate networks.

To keep customers up-to-date about the development of its products with respect to Windows Vista, Panda Software has created the "Windows Vista Information Center", available at http://www.pandasoftware.com/Vista. Here users will find information about the compatibility of Panda Software products with the new operating system. They will also be able to download beta versions and final versions of Panda Software products that support Windows Vista.

Additionally, to make migration to the new operating system as easy as possible while continuing to have the best protection against Internet threats, current clients of the 2007 Panda Software consumer products will get the new Vista-compatible versions free and automatically, as soon as they are available.

"Given the current malware situation, with creators of threats trying to sneak their creations onto systems silently, a massive migration process to a new operating system could be seen by attackers as an opportunity to launch attacks on users' computers. With our Windows Vista-compatible products, we want to prevent that possibility, offering users the best protection at all times, under any platforms," explains Jaime Herrero, Director of Consumer Marketing at Panda Software International.

Panda Antivirus 2007 is the lightest anti-virus in Panda Software's consumer product line-up. This new easy-to-use solution offers complete protection against known and unknown Internet threats, with a minimal use of system resources. The new Panda Antivirus 2007 is aimed at home-users whose use of the Internet does not require a complete security suite. It has been designed to install and forget, protecting the system automatically from the moment it is installed.

Panda ClientShield is a global protection solution for workstations in corporate environments. Integrated in the computers, this high-performance, low-consumption solution protects against viruses, worms, Trojans and all types of malware. It can also filter spam and block the use of spyware, diallers and other hacking tools. Administration is quick and simple thanks to integration with the AdminSecure console, considerably reducing update time and therefore the risk of infection for corporate workstations.
