Time Warner Cable – Internet Security
Many people hear the term "Internet Security," but they don’t necessarily know what exactly that means. With the way things are these days, you have to be extra careful with links you click on, websites you visit and files you download.
But even after you take extra precaution, some unwelcome programs find their way into your computer, sometimes corrupting many of your files.
If you sign up for Road Runner Internet service with Time Warner Cable, you’ll get the CA® Internet Security Suite 2010 for free! So not only will you get blazing fast downloading speeds (up to 7 Mbps) over Time Warner Cable's fiber-optic network, but now you’ll also get a security suite that gives you peace of mind while you shop and surf online.
Here are some of the great features of Time Warner Internet Security:
Control your family's online access:
- Easy parental controls help you keep the kids safe.
- Block access to instant messaging services, certain websites, and dangerous peer-to-peer applications.
Anti-Spyware:
- Spyware is an advertising supported program that sometimes installs tracking software on your system. This is bad because it slows down your Internet connectivity and your system, while also sending back information about you and your surfing habits.
Personal firewall:
- A firewall permits or rejects Internet network transmissions based on a rules set to protect the system from unauthorized users/programs. With a personal firewall, you’ll be able to protect all of your person al information, and keep your system safe from malicious programs.
Anit-Virus:
- This protection system keeps your computer safe from malware, like computer viruses, computer worms, Trojan horses, spyware and adware.
Anti-Spam:
- Spam is an email message that floods the Internet with the same message, trying to force someone to see it, despite the fact they never requested the information.
Anti-Phishing:
- Phishing is a way unscrupulous people try to acquire your usernames, passwords and credit card details by portraying themselves as trustworthy entities. It’s usually carried out by a link in an email or instant message. The anti-phishing software attempts to identify these emails and sites before you are in danger.
Comprehensive support:
- The intuitive help desk that Time Warner Cable provides, along with their informative reports and continuous security updates, makes this an incredibly helpful package.
Your life on the Internet will be much safer and much more fun, once you are protected by Time Warner Cable Internet Security.
