The developers of the world’s most advanced AntiVirus
and Content Security Solutions, MicroWorld
Technologies, launches its futuristic, enterprise
class firewall eConceal,
today, on 26th of May, 2006. The release has been
increasingly attracting great fanfare and enthusiasm
from its global client base, media and well-wishers.
eConceal is a comprehensive network firewall developed
to prevent unauthorized access to a computer or network
connected to the Internet. It enforces a boundary
between two or more networks by implementing default
or user-defined Access Control Policies or Rules.
These rules function as filters by analyzing data
packets to see if they fulfill the filter criteria
and then allow or block the traffic accordingly.
‘Stealth Mode’ option is a powerful feature
that allows you to surf the Internet invisibly, without
letting other online users see you. In this mode your
system does not respond to continuous information
requests flowing in from other computers.
“eConceal empowers you with a multi-layered
protection by Application Level filtering, Packet
Level filtering and Stealth Mode,” said Govind
Rammurthy, CEO, MicroWorld
Technologies. “It’s like building a
heavily guarded a digital fortress around you and
then make it invisible as well! While every port is
monitored with consistent vigil to prevent Port Scanning
by attackers, each data packet is checked to see if
it fulfills the filter criteria and rules.”
Internet Services option of eConceal gives you Total
Content Security with Website Filtering and Pop-Up
Blocking. In Enterprises, system administrators can
ensure that access to offensive, pornographic and
non-productive websites are blocked completely to
streamline operations and improve efficiency. Administrators
can also stop all kinds of Pop-ups to save bandwidth
and system resources, with options for adding specific
websites to a white list.
Apart from its superior technology and robust functionality,
eConceal also breaks away from the myth that firewalls
are difficult to understand and hard on usability.
Designed by incorporating the best of breed practices
in usability engineering and Human Computer Interface
(HCI) researches, this firewall scores high on user
experience and adaptability. Its packet level alert
and subsequent prompting for creating rules, make
life easy for the user.
Initially, the network firewall will be launched
in three versions- eConceal Standard, eConceal Pro
and eConceal for Servers. eConceal Standard is a basic
version, eConceal Pro is designed for workstations
and eConceal for Servers is the advanced Gateway level
Firewall.
Govind Rammurthy revealed “eConceal is a perfect
fusion of some refreshingly new ideas, ‘out of
the box’ thought processes and our Pioneering
knowledge in Information Security. When we decided
to break away from the norm, we also wanted to break
a new path to redefine the scope and leverage of a
firewall. Today when eConceal rolls out, we want it
to stop at nothing short of revolutionizing Access
Control, Intrusion Prevention and Complete Data Integrity.”
