New Panda Cloud Antivirus 2.1.1 includes improved heuristic detection and anti-exploit technologies
(OPENPRESS) Panda Security, The Cloud Security Company, today announced that it has obtained Microsoft's 'Windows 8 Compatible' logo for Panda Cloud Antivirus (www.cloudantivirus.com), its cloud-based free antivirus product. So users of Microsoft's latest operating system can continue to benefit from the protection offered by Panda Cloud Antivirus, version 2.1.1.
The new Panda Cloud Antivirus 2.1.1 includes improved heuristic detection and anti-exploit technologies, which detect and neutralize malware that exploits zero-day vulnerabilities in legitimate applications like Office, Adobe or Java as an infection vector. Panda Cloud Antivirus is designed to upgrade itself to the new version automatically and transparently to users, keeping them protected at all times.
"Obtaining Microsoft's 'Windows 8 Compatible' logo is a big step and a reward to our effort in ensuring the high quality of our solutions," explained Alberto Anon, Consumer Product Manager at Panda Security. "We offer users maximum security with minimum resource usage, regardless of the operating system they are using." This certification confirms the Windows 8 compatibility announced by independent testing labs AV-Comparatives.org and AV-Test.org for Panda Security's products in their recent tests.
