SafeCentral Named the Leader in Secure Browser

Last month, PCmag.com wrote “PCMag’s Guide to Security Software,” a great article outlining the different types of security software available, what they can all be used for, and highlighting the best in each category. In their article, they named SafeCentral as the leader in the “Secure Browser” category.

Here is the exact quote from PCMag:

“SafeCentral 2.6 is the leader in this less-common product area. When users switch to secure browsing, a secure desktop slides into place visibly and emits an audible clang. The secure browser can't access programs outside the secure desktop, and vice versa. SafeCentral automatically offers secure browsing when you surf to recognized financial sites, and it routes DNS requests through its own secure DNS servers to ensure your surfing can't be diverted to a fake site.”

PCMag is already familiar with SafeCentral having done a review of the product last year, and the year before that as well. To read the review from last year, click here. Feel free to add a review of your own if you have experience with our product as we would love to get your feedback.

If you are a business or enterprise with a virtual data infrastructure, here’s a great chance for you to learn more about SafeCentral and how to secure your VDI and your endpoint data. SafeCentral will hold a free live webinar on June 1st, at 2 pm EST about VDI security. Register here.

Virtual Desktop Infrastructure Protection – Free Live Webinar

With a shift to cloud computing and VDI environments, small and midsize businesses are now the main target of cybercriminals. VDIs are becoming more common place as they offer enterprises costs savings however, they also pose new security risks. VDIs may make their users more vulnerable than ever to screen scrapers, key loggers, DNS redirection and malware. Overall making your environment less secure and expose you to critical data theft. Remote endpoints (managed or unmanaged) restrict the level of protection you can guarantee.

As businesses strive to reduce costs associated with application and data access, many organizations are finding the solution resides in leveraging existing resources to centralize applications and services. But what happens when data is accessed on your VDI from a local machine that is possibly infected with malware? That data is now susceptible to malware and theft.

Advanced malware is bypassing the best anti-malware solutions for the endpoint and conducting mass-market crime. Consumers, Commercial Banks, and Enterprise Networks are all at risk, despite all the effort and dollars being spent.

Virtual desktop infrastructures (VDI) are becoming more common place as they offer enterprises costs savings however, they also pose new security risks. A Gartner report said that it expects 50,000,000 users, or 15% of corporate desktops to be deployed via VDI by 2013. For these users and their employers, VDI may offer cost savings but it makes them more vulnerable than ever to screen scrapers, key loggers, DNS redirection and malware.

As businesses strive to reduce costs associated with application and data access, many organizations are finding the solution resides in leveraging existing resources to centralize applications and services, including security. This may force enterprises to choose between poor VDI return on investment or poor security and potential lack of regulatory compliance. But what happens when data is accessed on your VDI from a local machine that is possibly infected with malware? That data is now susceptible to malware and theft.
