A unique traffic-based PC protection combined
with an Enterprise scale patching system
Antivirus looks or files and actions, whereas Heimdal looks at traffic. Therefore, Heimdal and antivirus work independently, but in tandem to protect your systems. Heimdal prevents hackers from taking data from your PC and moving it out of your network.

What is the difference?
The key difference in Heimdal to Antivirus products is that Heimdal focuses on the communication from and to the PC to combat and detect incoming 2nd generation malware, combined with patching to close security gaps used by hackers.
Works with any antivirus
Heimdal works with any antivirus engine on the market. The combined protection you receive will vary between the engines used, but Heimdal will always add traffic based protection against new 2nd generation attacks, where no antivirus product is able to intercept these attacks.
Cyberthreat Security Suite with 3 key layers
2-way traffic scanning engine
Heimdal has a unique, client-based 2-Way Traffic Scanning Engine which protects you against Zero Hour exploits, dangerous web locations, malicious content from legitimate websites, cybercriminal attacks and data leakage. Heimdal is the traffic scanning alternative for any business.
Unique TPA engine
The unique, traffic-pattern Malware Engine is a perfect layer of extra protection for any Antivirus product. It enables you to detect and block new and advanced malware strains. Heimdal’s state-of-the-art technology is accredited by the US Department of Justice, the FBI and Europol. Heimdal uses traffic-based detection, while antivirus uses file and signature scanning.
Software installer and patching
Looking for vulnerability intelligence? Heimdal provides you with essential intelligence about your vulnerabilities. It can also install and patch critical applications automatically, silently, with zero setup and without user interruption, while offering the flexibility you need. Patching is a key component in any IT security environment, as exploits are used in 65% of all attacks.
Cryptoware protection
CTB-Locker, Cryptolocker, Cryptodefence or Cryptowall is likely the most advanced malware in the world.
Heimdal offers protection where antivirus products give up – offering Patching, Exploit blocking, Dropper protection or key delivery filtering.
Infections can happen either via vulnerabilities or exploits delivered from legitimate website banners and cannot be detected by antivirus products. Once the exploits are used, Malware droppers deliver the payload which can avoid your antivirus. This means that hackers are often successful in bypassing defenses. Heimdal uses it 4-layers to stop Ransomware attacks at different levels.
