Sky Identity Shield

Why you need Sky Identity Shield

Nowadays, with constant fast connectivity via broadband, we all use our computers for shopping, banking, bill paying, gaming, emailing, chatting, social networking, etc. Given just how much computers are part of our daily lives, you should find recent news very disturbing.

A survey carried out by the UK government found that 12% of the participants had suffered from online fraud in 2006, yet just under half of them believed that they should be responsible for protecting their personal information online. In spite of the results of this survey, protecting personal data / identity is a vital issue for anyone using a computer. Being online can be great, but only if you can safely do it without becoming a victim of fraud.

Your personal data, such as names, addresses, date of birth, login usernames / passwords, passport / bank account / credit card / national insurance numbers, etc. is what keeps you unique and will always be targeted by criminals seeking to steal your identity and commit a range of other offences. In the past year alone, tens of millions became victims of identity theft, a crime that costed them billions. It’s the fastest growing crime in the US / Europe and it can take the victims about 12 months before they realise that they’ve been under attack. Criminals are using more and more sophisticated methods, so consequently personal defences have to be constantly improving.

Unlike standard anti-virus protections that examine the electronic form / makeup of software ("signature") to identify a virus, Sky Identity Shield monitors and analyses the combined functions / behaviours of every software that runs on your PC to identify malware (malicious software) that tries to steal your identity. In other words, it identifies malware based on what it does rather than what it is. It will watch, wait and defend at the moment new threats try to attack. It's a perfect complement to your standard anti-virus software; you need both combined together to obtain a more comprehensive protection.

Sky Identity Shield

  • Protect your identity: Sky Identity Shield offers instant and constant protection against malware / viruses specifically designed to steal your identity.

  • Always on and up-to-date: Sky Identity Shield is always on and up-to-date, maximising your protection. Standard anti-virus software is not enough and isn’t always up-to-date. It can’t keep up with the volume of new malware / viruses being introduced every day. It takes time to create a protection against new threats and it still needs to be downloaded onto your PC, consequently it takes time for a new protection to find its way to your system to protect you.

  • Complete removal: Sky Identity Shield offers a complete removal that eliminates all traces of the identified malware / viruses and prevents their reinstallation.

  • Easy to use: Sky Identity Shield operates in the background, quietly watching and waiting, striking when malicious activities occur. Once downloaded, there are no complex setup options or lengthy scans to complete and it works instantly with protection immediately enabled.

  • Total protection: Malware may fool your standard anti-virus software that uses signature-based detection, but it won't fool Sky Identity Shield that uses behaviour-based detection. For the same reasons you have locks AND alarm systems in your house, or seatbelts AND airbags in your car, Sky Identity Shield complements your standard anti-virus software perfectly to offer a complete total protection for your PC and online identity.

  • Protect your identity for less than 5p a day: Sky Identity Shield costs only £19 per year and is even better value if you choose a 2-year subscription for £29. What’s more, you also get the first month of protection completely free.
