F-Secure Corporation protects consumers and businesses against computer viruses and other threats from the Internet and mobile networks. We want to be the most reliable provider of security services in the market. One way to demonstrate this is the speed of our response.
According to independent studies in 2004 and 2005 our response time to new threats is significantly faster than our major competitors. Our award-winning solutions are available for workstations, gateways, servers and mobile phones. They include antivirus and desktop firewall with intrusion prevention, antispam and antispyware solutions, as well as network control solutions for Internet Service Providers.
Founded in 1988, F-Secure has been listed on the Helsinki Exchanges since 1999, and has been consistently growing faster than all its publicly-listed competitors. F-Secure headquarters are in Helsinki, Finland, and we have regional offices around the world. F-Secure protection is also available as a service through major ISPs, such as France Telecom, TeliaSonera, PCCW and Charter Communications. F-Secure is the global market leader in mobile phone protection provided through mobile operators, such as T-Mobile and Swisscom and mobile handset manufacturers such as Nokia. The latest real-time virus threat scenario news are available at the F-Secure Data Security Lab weblog.
Why speed matters
In this business, speed of response is an essential factor in the quality of protection. Minutes can count, literally - often making the difference between whether your systems survive an attack or not. F-Secure has a proven track record of reacting faster to imminent threats and staying one step ahead of the industry in developing protection against new ones. Our proactive technologies together with record reaction times minimize false positives and repeatedly save our customers from attacks that wreak havoc worldwide. What's more, as risk scenarios mutate, our automatic security updates ensure that the best available protection is always at your disposal. As we say, reaction speed matters. Criminals commonly test the malware they develop against commercial heuristic ("proactive") packages.
Did you know that:
- If a virus protection update is delivered to you only three hours faster, it can reduce the probability of infection by whole orders of magnitude.
- By contrast, receiving an update just 60 seconds too late can mean that your whole antivirus system is completely disabled.
That's why our renowned ability to pounce on diverse, unpredictable new threats as they appear makes F-Secure your most reliable choice.
