BlackFog Privacy for Ransomware, Spyware and Malvertising

New Privacy software ensures your device is kept safe from online hackers.

Cheyenne, Wyoming, October 18, 2016. Today BlackFog released its next generation online protection software for Windows 7 and later. BlackFog’s real-time network blocking provides advanced threat protection for any Windows based device from more than 26 million threats, as well as browser independent ad blocking and data profiling protection.

Using non-signature based techniques, BlackFog is able to stop cyberthreats before they occur, by intercepting, detecting and responding to behavioral characteristics of spyware, ransomware and other data collection activities on your device. Specifically focused on monitoring and blocking the flow of outbound traffic, BlackFog prevents the transmission of data from one device or network to another, stopping malware and ransomware attacks from taking effect.

The latest version of BlackFog Privacy introduces outbound network mapping, providing visual insight into the destination of every packet and introduces a new interface for rapid access to the systems settings, traffic and threats. In addition, BlackFog has introduced more than 50 new Privacy cleaning features to disable both system level and application based data collection activity.

Available as a yearly subscription of $35.00, the product is available immediately from the company’s web site.

BlackFog is the category-defining vendor in anti data exfiltration (ADX). Founded in 2015, the company invented ADX on the thesis that the endpoint is the only control point capable of stopping data from leaving an organization, an architectural bet that has now been validated across three exfiltration vectors: ransomware, shadow AI, and autonomous AI agents. BlackFog’s endpoint-native platform protects more than 500 enterprises, government agencies, and critical infrastructure operators worldwide. 

The company is the publisher of the annual State of Ransomware report and the BlackFog/Sapio Shadow AI Research, the most-cited primary research in the category.
