Paradigm shift in Security?

[Greg Kedrovsky]

Got this from my Dad this morning (Monday, 30Aug04). Seems like it would
be a MASSIVE resource hog... but, you gotta admit that the idea sounds
interesting.

Revolutionizing PC Security
***************************


Israeli start-up SecureOL has developed ground-breaking technology
that provides an online security solution for PCs that protects
against any form of attack, whether a virus, worm, Trojan horse or
malicious code - all without having to constantly defend against new
virus mutations. In addition, SecureOL's technology can provide
complete protection from intellectual property theft, fraud, cyber
crime and cyber terrorism.

SecureOL's technology essentially isolates the virus or other hostile
program automatically in its own "environment", separate from the
other programs running on the PC, where it executes itself without
causing any damage. Pioneering the concept of "Security by
Virtualization", SecureOL's innovative approach segregates each
running program from the others, as if each is running on a separate
computer. The user is oblivious to the product's operation, which
functions in the background, as each virtual environment operates
simultaneously, without interference from the other environments and
without harming the PC.

The company claims that its platform "will set a new world standard
for computer security" in that it completely shifts the paradigm of
PC security from upgrading defenses to neutralizing the dangers
altogether.

SecureOL has already introduced its first product to market - VE2 ,
which is being marketed in Israel by DataSec, one of Israel's largest
IT service companies.

SecureOL is in the final stages of its incubation at the Mofet
B'Yehuda Technological Incubator in the Kiryat Arba region.
