 Internet
Security for
Educational Institutions
It is essential for educational institutions to maintain a balancing
act of providing students and faculty with an environment that
facilitates an open exchange of information and ideas while protecting
and securing their network assets. This mission needs to be achieved
under tight budget restrictions, which often force IT departments
to use free, but highly ineffective security software solutions.
Process Software offers spyware, spam, and virus protection with
this mission in mind. We have reliably served academic institutions
for over 20 years. Process Software offers award-winning Internet
protection along with a generous educational discount.

SpyCatcher Enterprise
The Internet is both the greatest source for information for
educational institutions and the greatest source of spyware.
Over 285 million clicks are made to hostile web sites every month
as a result of using a search engine (Ben Edelman, SiteAdvisor
Research Analyst). Spyware is especially dangerous to users since
the developers are often motivated by financial gain.
SpyCatcher’s Profiling Engine goes beyond conventional
antispyware solutions by including several layers of technology
for maximum protection. Its signature-based technology is coupled
with DeepDefense™ application intercepting intelligence
which blocks known spyware from installing and running in memory.
The expansive risk analysis monitors a PC’s behavior for
suspicious activity and stops new and emerging spyware.
