Date: Wed, 29 Mar 2006 23:54:02 +0200 From: GentleSecurity Team <gsw@...tlesecurity.com> To: bugtraq@...urityfocus.com Subject: GeSWall 2.2 – Free Intrusion Prevention System for Windows Hello Bugtraq, we would like to announce the recent GeSWall update. GeSWall is an intrusion prevention system for Windows. It applies a security policy that effectively precludes damage from various attacks and malicious software. Instead of blocking particular attack techniques GeSWall focuses on attack objectives such as taking control of a PC, stealing data, breaking system integrity etc. This approach allows block unknown attacks based on “zero-days” vectors, e.g. GeSWall has been stopped Windows Metafile exploits. GeSWall policy isolates web browsers, e-mail, chat, p2p, irc clients and other applications that may serve as entry points for malicious software or intrusions. Viruses, trojans, spyware, keyloggers and exploits cannot pass through an isolation policy and so cannot cause damage. In contrast with similar solutions, GeSWall is not limited by using sandboxing or virtualization, because this leads to usability problems. GeSWall is designed to be as non-intrusive as possible and does not restrict a network access, files or process creation. Instead, it tracks a potential threat (e.g. a file, process) down, isolates this threat and prevents damage. An additional information and free GeSWall download are available on our web site http://www.gentlesecurity.com/personal.html GentleSecurity Team
