Secure Command Changes Name to Invincea(TM), Launches Invincea Browser Protection Product
FAIRFAX, Va., April 5 -- Secure Command, a next-generation security software company, today announced that it has changed its name to Invincea, concurrent with the release of its maiden software product, Invincea Browser Protection. Developed under funding from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), Invincea(TM) Browser Protection shields PC users against all types of Web-borne threats by seamlessly moving desktop Web browsers into a controlled virtual environment.
"Web browsers have become the shortest route to money for cybercriminals today," says Dr. Anup Ghosh, Invincea Founder and CEO. "New strains of increasingly sophisticated malware enable cybercriminals to exploit browsers and commit identity theft, financial fraud and espionage."
Due to the staggering number of new browser-based malware variations surfacing daily, current conventional defenses cannot adequately protect individuals and enterprises. "The problem is no longer just a concern for those who protect our national security," according to Ghosh. "It impacts every organization that uses Web browsers to access content, commerce, social networks and Web applications."
Invincea Browser Protection automatically detects and terminates a threat in real time, disposes of the tainted environment, and restarts a pristine one. Unlike other solutions, Invincea does not rely on malware signatures for detection, nor does it rely on users to make correct security decisions. Instead, it automatically identifies malware attacks based on behaviors and actions inside a controlled environment. Invincea(TM) Browser Protection has the same look and feel as familiar native browsers, so users don't have to learn anything new to browse freely and safely.
Invincea's initial market focus will be on federal government agencies, defense and government contractors, and commercial enterprises. For more information, visit http://www.invincea.com.
