PC Matic
We are talking about software that keeps our computer safe and is designed to stop the activities like infiltrating our computers, invading our privacy and robbing our online accounts.
All features are available in a single package that is known as Super Shield white list real-time protection. The white list is mainly used to block polymorphic viruses creating a safe environment to do business.
It also adds another feature of vulnerability automatic patch management according to which all the access holes for viruses are blocked and closed making online browsing a secure matter to do.
It also owns the first place in the Virus Bulletin RAP test for being the best in blocking viruses and keeping the computer safe from modern threats like CryptoLocker.
Who is the designer of software?
The software is made under PC Pitstop, the actual company which got founded in November 1999 by Rob Cheng.
Rob is the CEO of PC Matic commercials and got the optimization software called Optimize in 2004.
PC Pitstop owns the membership of the Microsoft Virus Information Alliance, ICSA Labs, Microsoft Virus Initiative, Anti-Virus Product Developers Consortium and reveal the testing of a product under Virus Bulletin.
How it functions?
The software is designed to fulfill certain security functions like improving performance, enhancing the speed of the computer, making the repair, removing viruses and malware.
We can’t say it as anti-virus protection cover but we can define it as software that works on a ‘white list’ which favors the use of trusted sites on your laptop, computer and other hand-held devices.
The white list is known for good programs and PC Matic just works according to it by blocking all other execution programs, not on its white list.
In this one can run a scan for free and in addition, can scan for malware.
Among its plans, one can go for a $50 per year subscription having five licenses or for $150 to keep all five licenses for a lifetime.
The company uses the term Super Shield to show out the work of technology implanted.
According to this Super Shield, one gets a high level of advantage in cloud computing keeping PC safe from online threats and plan out for use of traditional blacklist in addition to industry’s only whitelist. It is thus real-time protection available in the market.
Its negative reviews
The software works best but doesn’t provide cover against malicious or phishing URLs.
A point of little accuracy data from independent antivirus labs also needs to be considered. It has been said aside from the claims on online documentation that few malware samples were noticed after using the software on the computer.
We can say in last it guarantees to block the execution of every single piece of malware, virus, Trojan, ransomware, and spyware by the use of real-time protection technology named Super Shield based on the white list but still didn’t properly identify all of them as malicious in testing.
