Finjan unveils breakthrough security assistance tool for end-users
Finjan Inc. today unveiled Finjan SecureBrowsing, an intuitive security assistance tool for end-users. Finjan SecureBrowsing is being demoed at Finjan’s RSA exhibit, Booth 2213, along with the company’s other recently-introduced web security offerings — including its upgraded high-performance line of Vital Securityâ„? Web Appliances and its RUSafe tool for scanning web content in “sniffer” mode.
Finjan SecureBrowsing is a new browser extension that proactively alerts users to potential malicious content hiding behind links of search results, ads and other selected web pages. Finjan SecureBrowsing accesses each of the links in its current form on the web, and scans the relevant pages in real time using Finjan’s patented behavior-based technology. Each link is then marked with a safety rating – either safe (green) or potentially malicious (red). Finjan SecureBrowsing enables end-users to experience the same best-in-class security technologies currently in use at large enterprise customers.
“Finjan SecureBrowsing utilizes our breakthrough web security approach, as implemented through our patented behavior-based scanning technology. It analyzes website code in real time to provide users with safety ratings of URLs before they visit the sites. This approach helps to prevent potentially malicious content from entering companies’ networks or PCs,” said Yuval Ben-Itzhak, CTO, Finjan.
