Product Description: | First personal firewall for the Mac |
NetBarrier wins Univers Macworld Award
Miami FL, December 26, 2000 Intego, a leading provider of Macintosh Internet security utilities, today announced that it has won the prestigious International award, the Univers Macworld Award for the Best Internet Software of 2000 for NetBarrier. NetBarrier is the first personal Firewall for Macintosh with Firewall, Antivandal, and Internet Filter components that make NetBarrier the all-in-one solution for complete personal Internet security.
Intego has won over 20 awards in the U.S., Europe, and Asia, such as the Macworld, MacHome, MacNN, and MacAddict Awards. In just two years, NetBarrier has become the worldwide leader in personal firewall software for the Mac.
"We are extremely excited about winning this international award for our Internet security software," said Laurent Marteau, CEO, Intego. "To be chosen the Best Internet Software among this fast-paced Internet community is truly an honor."
Macworld
San Francisco, CA, January 9, 2001 Intego, a leading provider of Macintosh Internet security utilities, today announced NetBarrier 2.0, the new version of the first personal firewall for Macintosh. NetBarrier provides three powerful modules: Firewall, Antivandal, and Internet Filter to make NetBarrier the all-in-one solution for complete personal Internet security. Designed with maximum ease of set-up and use, NetBarrier is the "must have" in Internet security software.
New security features in NetBarrier 2.0 include control of unwanted Internet cookies, banner ads, and spam; the ability to filter personal information sent when connected to a web site; updates to the program's Firewall settings; gauges to monitor data traffic by protocol or application; and log exporting.
NetBarrier 2.0 also supports the new version of Intego's NetUpdate, the automatic software update engine. Users can program updates for specific days and times, and NetUpdate will check the Intego server to find out if updates are available for all of Intego's Barrier products installed on your computer.
Intego's programs have received many awards in the U.S., Europe, and Asia, such as awards from Macworld, MacRame, MacNN, MacAddict. In France, UniversMacWorld recently gave NetBarrier their 2000 trophy for the best Internet program.
"All Macs connected to the Internet are susceptible to security problems without exception," said Laurent Marteau, CEO, Intego. "Some Internet users falsely believe that using a modem or ISDN dial-up connection does not expose them to hackers. Hackers can get in through flaws in the OS. For example, a flaw discovered in port 49152 of Mac OS 9 allows hackers to send data that instantly freezes up a Mac, a problem that NetBarrier solves easily."
New NetBarrier Features include:
-
Quick access to many settings via a new Control Strip module
-
New Aqua interface
-
Spam Filtering
-
Filtered spam is deleted directly on POP3 servers
-
Filtering of message subject, author, and sender
-
Filtering of URLs
-
Updates to the program's Firewall settings
-
Definition of port intervals
-
Predefined rule sets
