The unique and advanced technologies behind F-Secure Ultralight provide several benefits that can be summarized as follows:
Better protection
By offloading scanning and analysis of suspicious objects to F-Secure’s Security Cloud, Ultralight is not only able to perform a more thorough evaluation of a potential threat, it is also able to minimize CPU and memory usage on the device itself. Once there is a verdict on an object, that information is immediately provided to all users, which in case of false positives means immediate whitelisting. As number of customers in the network grows, so do the performance improvements.
Better performance
By offloading scanning and analysis of suspicious objects to F-Secure’s Security Cloud, we are not only able to perform a much more thorough analysis of a potential threat than we could on the endpoint; we are able to save precious resources on the device itself. Once we have a verdict on an object, we immediately provide that to all of our customers, which in the case of clean files means simply skipping the files. As our network of customers grows, so do the performance improvements.
Better user experience
Ultralight installation takes just seconds and, once it is completed, the user is fully protected through the latest components and threat intelligence available via endpoints the F-Secure Security Cloud. As a customer, you will receive new and improved protection components quickly and frequently
