Intego VirusBarrier X5

Protects your Mac from all known Mac viruses and malware
You know very well that your Mac contains important information and files. If you use it for your work, you are aware how much time and money it would cost if you were to lose these files. Even if you just use your computer at home, you certainly have files you would hate to lose. On top of that, if a virus were to erase all of your files, even if you did not lose anything important, you would have to spend a great deal of time reinstalling your system and all of your programs.

The virus threat is real. More and more viruses are being discovered every day. While the Macintosh is relatively privileged, compared to Windows, there is still the danger of existing viruses or new viruses spreading to your Mac and damaging your files.

Intego VirusBarrier X5 is the simple, fast and non-intrusive antivirus solution for Macintosh computers. It offers thorough protection against viruses and malware of all types, coming from infected files or applications, whether on CD-ROMs, DVDs or other removable media, or in files downloaded over the Internet or other types of networks.

VirusBarrier X5 protects your Mac from viruses by constantly examining all the files that your computer reads and writes, as well as watching for suspicious activity that may be the sign of viruses acting on applications or other files. With VirusBarrier X5 on your computer, you can rest assured that your Macintosh has the best protection available against viruses of all kinds.

VirusBarrier X5 works in the background and checks everything that your Mac does, looking for viruses. It knows the unique signatures of all known Macintosh viruses, and whenever a new virus is discovered, Integos Virus Monitoring Center goes into action to provide updated virus definitions, which you can download using Intego NetUpdate.

When you purchase VirusBarrier X5, you have access to virus definition updates for one year from the date of installation. After this time, additional subscriptions, allowing you to extend your access to virus definition updates, are available from Intego, and can be purchased by using NetUpdate.

VirusBarrier X5 was designed according to specific concepts. The main idea is that an antivirus program should not require the user to do anything once it is installed and configured, unless a virus is detected. The VirusBarrier X5 philosophy can be summed up in three words: simple, fast and non-intrusive.

• Simple
        VirusBarrier X5 is the easiest to use antivirus program for Macintosh. After you install it, it works in the background, keeping a close eye on your Mac, and verifies your files silently.



• Fast
        VirusBarrier X5 is fast and efficient. It does not slow down your Mac, and you can work normally while its active. Each time a file is created, opened or saved, VirusBarrier X5 checks the file to make sure it is safe.



• Non-intrusive
        VirusBarrier X5 is non-intrusive. It will not constantly ask you about “suspicious” activity, each time you want to install a program, nor will it generate endless false alarms. Once you have installed it, you probably wont notice its there, unless it detects a virus and alerts you. In addition, you do not need to deactivate VirusBarrier X5 when installing new software, regardless of what the programs installer or manual may say. VirusBarrier X5 can run all the time, in the background, protecting your Mac without you needing to worry about it.

Intego NetBarrier X5

Whether you use your Mac for work or just for surfing the Internet, whether you are online all day long, or just occasionally, whether you are on a local network in a home office, or part of a large corporation or educational institution, your computer contains sensitive information. This may be anything from your credit card numbers to your bank account information, contracts with customers or employees, confidential projects or e-mail messages and passwords. No matter what you have on your Mac that is for your eyes only, there is somebody out there who would certainly find it interesting.

Intego NetBarrier X5 is the Internet security solution for Macintosh computers running Mac OS X. It offers thorough protection against intrusions coming across the Internet or a local network.

NetBarrier X5 protects your computer from intrusions by constantly filtering all the activity that enters and leaves through the Internet or a network. NetBarrier X5 protects you from thieves, hackers and intruders, and warns you automatically if any suspicious activity occurs.

NetBarrier X5 has four lines of defense to protect your Mac and your data from intrusions and attacks.

Personal Firewall
NetBarrier X5 contains a personal firewall that filters data as it enters and leaves your computer. A full set of basic filtering rules is used by default, and its Customized protection mode allows you to create your own rules, if you need to.

A firewall is, as its name suggests, like a wall. It protects your computer or network by separating users into two groups—those inside the wall, and those outside. It is configured to determine what access outsiders have to computers inside the wall, and what access insiders have to computers and networks on the other side of the wall.

A firewall is a kind of filter that acts between your computer, or network, and a wide area network such as the Internet. It functions by filtering packets of data, and examining where they come from and where they are going.

NetBarrier X5 offers powerful firewall protection for your Mac, and its customized protection allows advanced users to configure specific rules to protect against foes who wish to infiltrate your computer.

Antivandal
NetBarrier X5s Antivandal is a powerful guardian for your computer. It watches over your Macs network activity, looking for signs of intrusion. If it detects any suspicious activity, NetBarrier X5 stops the intruder in their tracks and displays an alert. The Antivandal has another powerful function, the Stop List, that records the addresses of intruders who attempt to get into your Mac, ensuring that they will always be blocked. Several options allow you to choose the type of protection you have on your computer.

• Policy

NetBarrier X5 can stop incoming data that is considered hostile. It can display an alert dialogue, showing why the data was stopped, and asking you to allow or deny it. You can also select other alert options, such as having NetBarrier X5 play a sound, put the host automatically in the Stop List, or send an e-mail message to the address(es) of your choice.

• Stop List

When an intruder is detected trying to break into your Mac, NetBarrier X5 allows you to put them on the Stop List, which records their network address. If a computer with the same address tries to enter your computer again it will be automatically blocked.

• Trusted Group

In some cases, computers you know—friends, not foes—will be blocked by NetBarrier X5. These may be computers on your local network, blocked because they are sending pings to your computer, for example. NetBarrier X5 allows you to put them in the Trusted Group, where they will be considered friends for as long as you want, ensuring that they can always access your Mac. It is important to note that the Trusted Group only applies to NetBarrier X5s Antivandal functions and data filter, and Firewall rules are still applied to computers in the Trusted Group.

• Anti-Spyware

NetBarrier X5 lets you control Internet and network access by individual applications. Whenever an untrusted application tries to connect to a network, NetBarrier X5 can display an alert, informing you which application is making the connection. If you want to allow that application to access the network—if it truly is an application you know should be using the network—then you can do so. But if an application tries to connect in secret, you can block it permanently.

Privacy Protection
NetBarrier X5 helps protect your privacy. It filters data to ensure that no sensitive information leaves your computer, blocks ad banners, and lets you surf anonymously. And it has a unique feature that hides information about your computer: its platform, which browser you are using, and the last web page you visited.

Monitoring
NetBarrier X5 contains powerful tools for monitoring your network activity and usage. Its activity gauges show your network traffic in real time, and its additional monitoring functions give you essential information on your computer, its network and the services and connections that are active.

NetBarrier X5 even offers a separate program, NetBarrier Monitor, that you can keep open all the time, as well as a monitoring screen saver, so you can always keep an eye on your network traffic.

Washing Machine: Cleans up your Internet programs
NetBarrier X5 includes a separate program named Washing Machine that further protects your privacy by helping you delete information about your Internet habits. It provides an easy way to remove bookmarks, cookies, caches, download histories and browsing histories for more than two dozen programs that regularly store such information, and can be set to periodically “clean” those items for effortless protection.

Washing Machine lets you:

1. Clean five types of information: bookmarks, browsing history, caches, cookies and download history.
2. Schedule cleaning routines so your personal information gets wiped regularly.
3. Create cleanlists to quickly and securely clean the information you choose.
