"Ertelecom" is providing Dr.Web information security services to its customers in Penza
January 30, 2008
Ertelecom CJSC, a leading ISP in the Russian city of Penza
starts delivering Dr.Web information security services to its customers.
The number of Internet threats is huge and hundreds of new
viruses emerge every day. Most customers of the provider
don't have licenced security software installed on their computers,
those who actually have amount to 5% only of the total number of customers.
Meanwhile it s a home PC without a protection from intrusion
which is turned into a zombie machine by Trojan
programmes and becomes the most efficient tool to spread malware all
over the World Wide Web.
"Nowadays many users are not computer-educated. Being a
provider-company, we are committed to provide reliable protection of
information stored on computers of our customers. Ertelecom
CJSC under the "Dom.ru" brand name has become the first ISP in
Penza that delivers such a service to its customers thus protecting our
users from viral threats. All subscribers of Dom.ru may use the
anti-virus protection service by Doctor Web, Ltd. free of charge for
two months. After that a customer is free to get a paid subscription at
an extremely low price of 59 rubles (about 2.45 USD) per month" - says
Peter Buzin, Ertelecom CJSC executive officer.
Dr.Web anti-virus service is delivered to all customers of
Dom.ru who subscribe to the service free of charge starting on 01.25.2008 until
03.25.2008. During this period every customer may subscribe to the service in
his or her private area. After an activation one
will be sent a download link to Dr.Web installer. The
executable file will install the application and establish a connection with an
anti-virus server of Ertelecom CJSC so the Dr.Web agent
(installed on the customer PC) will receive virus database and
programme modules updates. The agent will be monitoring all
file related operations, scan RAM and boot sectors and filter mail
messages for viruses and spam. The monthly fee includes updating virus
databases and programme modules.
Using the new service has many
unquestionable benefits:
- subscribers do not spend time searching for a solution
to protect their computers from viruses;
- a service fee is included in a provider bill which also
saves time;
- unlike a box product the service duration options are from
1 up to 36 months. A customer can invest in anti-virus protection more
efficiently and suspend the service if away on vacation or on a long
business trip
The new service makes the broadband
Internet connection provided by Ertelecom CJSC safe and free of viruses
and spam. Starting from March 26, 2008 a monthly
subscription fee for protection from viruses and
Spam will amount to 59 rubles (about 2.45 USD)
for all sbuscribers of Dom.ru, which is much cheaper than buying a box
anti-virus.
