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.
