Zero Hour protection: Today’s malware purveyors skirt traditional defenses by exploiting the “zero hour delay,” this is the time delay between identifying the attacking malware and time to deliver new definitions that can detect and neutralize the threat. To exploit this delay, virus authors have taken to using several new circulation strategies—so-called short-span attacks and serial-variant attacks. In addition Preventon antivirus products come with multiple engines. By utilising multiple anti-malware engines to scan; you can increase detection rates significantly and benefit from the strengths of each engine.

Some other company’s use products that appear to be antivirus programs, but in fact, they are installing viruses and or malware on your computer.
