See the Whole Picture with Faronics System Profiler

SAN RAMON, CA, May 18, 2005 — Faronics Technologies is proud to announce the release of Faronics System Profiler, a unique software utility that generates a detailed inventory of a workstation’s configuration and properties. The program was originally designed to improve Faronics Technical Support’s ability to troubleshoot computers, but it has proved to be such a powerful asset to the company that Faronics has decided to release the program, free of charge, for all users. “System Profiler drastically reduces the time it takes to find out what is installed on your machine,” says Adam Zilliax, Faronics Technologies Manager of Technical Support. “The program is the only one of its kind, is simple and straightforward to use, and is an excellent tool for identifying the root of a technical issue on a workstation.” System Profiler allows users to quickly view all hardware and software applications currently installed on a computer. The program helps diagnose hardware and software problems, and allows users to keep an accurate list of software programs and hardware configurations. System Profiler is useful when purchasing a new or used PC so users can see exactly what they’re buying, and can easily find out how much room a computer has on it for expansion of RAM or PCI cards. The reports generated by the program can be saved for later viewing, or submitted to Faronics Technologies support for analysis. Faronics System Profiler can be downloaded free of charge at www.faronics.com. About Faronics Faronics develops and Continue Reading... Read More

Faronics Officially Releases Anti-Executable Enterprise & Standard Versions

SAN RAMON, CA, May 30, 2005 — Faronics Technologies is pleased to announce the official release of Faronics Anti-Executable Enterprise, the company’s latest software product to offer increased productivity and workstation security for multi-user computing environments. Faronics Anti-Executable revolutionizes workstation protection and control by preventing any unauthorized program from running or installing. Faronics Anti-Executable stops all unauthorized executables from launching, whether they are downloaded from the Internet or introduced via any removable media. On install, AntiExecutable performs a deep scan of the computer and authorizes every single executable on it. From that point on, all other executables are deemed unauthorized and will not run or install. “Anti-Executable provides a powerful defense against the blended threats that exist in today’s computing environments,” said Guillermo Tellez, the Product Manager for Anti-Executable. “This program will be a huge asset for IT professionals who need to keep expensive computing resources free from illegal software, unauthorized downloads, and other malicious intrusions.” Using a unique whitelist technology, Anti-Executable provides proactive protection against spyware, keyloggers, trojans, viruses, or any other type of malware. “Anti-Executable is a new development in security software, which moves away from the traditional, reactive blacklist approach that requires constant updates and user interaction,” said Dmitry Shesterin, Faronics’ Marketing Manager. “The whitelist technology we use represents a ground-breaking workstation security concept. It dramatically reduces technical maintenance, enforces Acceptable Use Policies, protects workstations from day-zero attacks, and prevents identity theft.” A fully functional evaluation version of Anti-Executable Enterprise is available for a 60-day trial period Continue Reading...

Deep Freeze Mac OS X for Tiger Released!

SAN RAMON, CA, May 30, 2005 — Faronics is happy to announce that Deep Freeze Mac OS X Version 1.8 has been officially released. This version is compatible with both Tiger (OS X 10.4) and Panther (OS X 10.3). A new user guide, brochure, evaluation version, and full shipping version are all available on Faronics’ Web site at www.faronics.com. Customers using Jaguar (OS X 10.2) still have the ability to use Deep Freeze Mac OS X version 1.7, also available on the Faronics Web site. “Due to some fairly major core changes that Apple made to Tiger, this release took a few extra weeks to prepare and test,” said Brent Smithurst, Vice President of Technical Operations at Faronics. “I’m confident that the wait will be worth it for all of our Tiger users.” Deep Freeze Mac OS X provides non-restrictive protection that allows a standard (nonadministrator) user to make changes in their home directory, but restores the entire directory to its exact original configuration after a logout, restart, selected time interval, or on a selected day of the week. Any changes made by a user are temporary, including changes to the desktop, Library, fonts, Dock, or screen settings. Restrictive protection options let users specify read, write, and execute privileges on-thefly and on a per-user basis for any file, folder, application, or system preference pane, no matter where it resides on the hard drive.
