What makes Comodo Internet Security Plus 8 better than my current Antivirus and Firewall?

Comodo Internet Security Plus 8 adds an additional layer of prevention called Defense+. This is what is known as a HIPS or Host Intrusion Prevention System. Antivirus software is a cleaning tool which scans for known viruses and removes them after they have already taken root. Comodo is a prevention tool as well as a cleaning tool, stopping potential viruses at the door. This works by inspecting each file that attempts to run on your computer and instantly comparing the files to White Lists of good files and Black Lists of dangerous files. If a file is not on either list it is restricted by our Auto Sandbox Technology™ so that you’re protected and can still work until the file is added to the correct list and either released or removed.

What makes Comodo's Internet Security Plus 8 different from other Internet security suites?

The best prevention is only effective if the user has the necessary support. That is why Comodo ensures that a technician is available 24/7 to assist customers with any security issues that they may encounter. Most PC issues are caused by malware and as a result, Comodo ensures that you’re not only protected but have a technician standing by to fix a problem, kill a virus or just make sure your not heading for disaster.

How is the Comodo Firewall different from the dozens of other firewalls out there?

Our firewall software is the only true firewall protection operating with Default Deny Protection™ technology to ensure your computer's security.

What is the Sandbox and how does it protect me?

Safe files have a Digital Signature issued by a Certificate Authority like Comodo and our Sandbox checks that each file has this signature. If not, it could be a virus even if no one else in the world has seen it yet. It may also be a safe file that may simply have been created privately or long ago. Users should not be burdened with making decisions on these files, that how the Auto Sandbox Technology™ helps. Users can still work but the files that don’t have signatures and are not on a White or Black list are isolated in a virtual environment where they can’t damage Windows, its registry, or important user data.

How does the Remote Security Support work? Does it differ from traditional tech support?
