MADRID, July 31, 2007
Panda Security has launched its new 2008 consumer product line comprising Panda Antivirus 2008, Panda Antivirus+Firewall 2008 and Panda Internet Security 2008. The new solutions have a far greater detection and disinfection capacity as they are based on the new security model, megadetection, allowing them to detect and disinfect more than one million threats.

The megadetection model is based on five basic pillars:

- Permanent protection, thanks to daily automatic updates
- Proactive protection with TruPrevent Technologies that detect unknown threats through behavioral analysis.
- In-depth online scanning with Panda TotalScan Pro to detect sophisticated malicious code that can evade traditional antivirus solutions.
- Collective intelligence, the new security focus.
- Technical services 24 hours a day -365 days a year

The new 2008 consumer solutions from Panda Security include a series of enhancements to detection technologies. Apart from a larger signature file, Panda products feature more efficient behavioral detection thanks to the intelligent TruPrevent Technologies. They also include new rootkit location and disinfection technology and support and technical assistance improvements, which will always be provided in the end user’s language.

All 2008 consumer products allow users to scan their computers in depth with TotalScan Pro. The online application detects all types of active and latent malware on PCs, based on the new “collective intelligence” approach. This approach includes automated processing of large quantities of information about programs and files in a new infrastructure managed by PandaLabs, and real-time communication with users’ computers. This way, the malware scanning and detection is performed on Panda Security’s servers, not on the user’s computer.
