Supreme Technology

First to market with an all-in-one security appliance for businesses, eSoft continues to be an innovator. To stay at the forefront of Web security and keep up with the dynamic world of network threats, eSoft developed and harnessed a number of pioneering technologies to meet growing customer needs.

Distributed Intelligence Architecture™ (DIA)

• Distributed Intelligence Architectureis the fabric that ties together all of eSoft's threat prevention systems, collecting data on new threats and providing immediate, reputation-based protection for customers.

Bi-Modal Scanning™

• The explosion of spam, Web-based applications and social networking sites, and their resultant Internet threats, push network security systems to their limits. eSoft's Bi-Modal scanning intercepts traffic at the datastream level, determining whether to use a packet or proxy-based approach for scanning traffic, making the eSoft products the most efficient security appliances on the market for handling deep packet inspection for spam, viruses, email and Web content filtering.

Threat Prevention Team

• With Internet Threats continuously evolving, eSoft’s Threat Prevention Team works 24x7 to classify new URLs and develop virus signatures, micro engines, spam detection rules and other threat prevention mechanisms. eSoft has the largest and fastest growing malware database. eSoft provides the most rapid threat detection and response network available.
