F-Secure offers new protection service for businesses

As part of its holistic new approach towards cyber security, Finland-based online security and privacy company F-Secure has released its flagship endpoint security solution that will provide a better web security for businesses.

The "Protection Service for Business" includes new web security (endpoint security) features and a redesigned management portal that is much more efficient for administrators, the company said in a statement.

Endpoint security refers to a methodology of protecting the corporate network when accessed via remote devices such as laptops or other wireless and mobile devices.

"Our approach with 'Protection Service for Business' is based on the fact that there is no one silver bullet to keep a business safe. There is not just one technology that will do the job every time," said Samu Konttinen, executive vice president, corporate security at F-Secure.

"Cyber threats use various attack methods and vectors, and businesses need a host of technologies that work together, backing each other up to protect the enterprise. With Protection Service for Business, all the components are together in one package," Konttinen added.

The new service, which will be offered as a managed service through reseller partners, is a completely redesigned cloud-enabled management portal that is much more intuitive to use.

Customers and partners will notice quicker, more efficient management, with better user flows and fewer clicks.
