Protect your PC and identity against unauthorized internal or external access; prevent data leakage. Inbound and outbound system and application firewall delivers essential proactive protection against zero-day and unknown web threats. System and Application Guard protects your OS and apps, and File and Folder Lock restricts access to sensitive data. Program activity tracker lets you view file and registry activity in real time. The firewall also ensures that your wired and wireless networks are secured against eavesdropping and internal breaches - great for home offices. The host protection monitors how programs interact to provide additional safeguards against data leaks and has passed all popular third-party leak tests with flying colors. New version 7.5 adds SmartDecision technology to facilitate decision-making in security issues - you get visual guidance as to how to better proceed (allow or block) along with a corresponding window color - red, yellow or green. You can also define a list of items to be specifically defended against inappropriate access or hijacking - this is particularly relevant for web apps and configuration settings. Web Control ensures you don't accidentally visit poisoned or phishing websites, limiting your exposure to potential identity theft and web-based exploits. Outpost keeps all of its critical files in a digital sandbox to prevent malware from targeting and terminating its protection. But all of this power is surprisingly light on system resource usage; in particular the new data filtering optimization enables the firewall to process information faster and more efficiently. Above all, Outpost Firewall Pro is easy to use, yet highly configurable, to appeal to beginners and experts alike. And the continuously-expanding ImproveNet database automatically ensures new application security configurations are available as soon as they've passed compatibility testing.
