Existing security products, employing signature based detection, are not sufficient due to huge influx of malicious programs. The time lag between from when malicious programs reported and your computer is updated with the latest signatures is sufficient enough to cause substantial damage to your online transactions.

While the AV industry is trying to bring down this time lag by employing hourly update or cloud based signatures, several deadly malicious programs goes under the radar due to their low profile, warranting another layer of security for online transactions.

K7SecureWeb focusing on personal information and online transaction protection fills up the gap in the existing security solutions.

By defining and narrowing down the online transaction behavior, K7SecureWeb is able to successfully secure its browsing environment by only allowing trusted components required for online transaction websites, and thus eliminating the need for signatures or behavioral technology to identify malicious programs or attempts. Any attempt to access this environment is blocked by default without any annoying prompts or user intervention, providing the best security for information and transaction protection.

In this way K7SecureWeb can protect your online transactions even if your computer is infected.

K7SecureWeb primary focus is to protect personal information and online transactions, filling up the gap in the existing security solutions. It leaves the detection of malicious programs or defending them from entering into your computer to existing security products (anti-virus, anti-spyware) but ensures that any such infiltration cannot succeed in compromising the financial transactions carried out inside of K7SecureWeb.

There are also other categories of malicious programs (e.g. botnet, that don’t target your personal information or online transactions) that require anti-virus/anti-spyware solution.

Transaction security solutions available today try to counter specific malicious techniques (e.g. key logging) instead of the fundamental threats (stealing personal information and unauthorized transactions), leaving large security holes.

For example, malware employ a variety of techniques to steal information entered on a webpage ranging from key logging to intercepting communication flow between the browser and the website. These transaction security products focus on few of these techniques as opposed to protecting the transaction environment as a whole.

K7SecureWeb focuses on the fundamental threats to online transaction (stealing personal information and unauthorized transaction) as opposed to individual techniques. Hence K7SecureWeb is the only product in the market that can offer comprehensive protection irrespective of the malicious techniques used.

Key logging is one of the several techniques employed by malicious programs to steal information entered on a webpage. There are at least dozens of techniques available to steal what is entered on a webpage. To iterate few

• Form grabbing– stealing what is typed in a form e.g. login form, registration form, payment form
• Content injection – asking for additional information such as PIN number, DOB, Social Security, by manipulating web pages
• During transit – capturing the information while being transmitted to the website
• Screen Capture – continuously taking screen shots and secretly sending them to the attacker

K7SecureWeb is the only product that can prevent all attempts to steal information, ensuring secure delivery to the intended website.

Some attackers do not even attempt to steal your login credentials to your bank. Instead they employ a highly sophisticated, yet simple, technique called session hijacking to replace the transaction or add completely new transaction.

Web Browsers provide a feature where websites can store ‘state’ information on your browser. Browsers subsequently send this ‘state’ information back to the website. After the successful login, websites use this ‘state’ information to identify the user during subsequent transaction. This is to avoid keep asking for login credentials for every click on a website.

Malicious program monitoring your bank access, steals this ‘state’ information and conduct unauthorized transaction right under your nose. Banking website, not being able to differentiate malicious transaction, will carry out the transaction request.

K7SecueWeb’s robust integrated communication layer guards the ‘state’ information and prevents all attempts to eavesdrop and/or manipulate the information exchange, ensuring secure communication with the intended website.
