We are delighted to announce that Outpost Firewall Pro 7 was awarded the Editor's Choice in Windows-compatible firewall tests performed by Russian IT magazine Hard'n'Soft. The test results were published in the October 2010 issue.

Competing with other seven personal security products (Avira, Dr. Web, ESET, Kaspersky Crystal, Outpost, Panda, Safe'n'Sec, Trend Micro), primarily security suites with a firewall component, Outpost won in all categories:

• Comodo leak tests for intrusion detection and prevention
• Ease-of-use

In summarizing the test results, the Hard'n'Soft researcher noted: "Outpost Firewall Pro scored the best among all the participants, with 330 points out of a possible 340.

Combined with Outpost Firewall Pro's functionality, which includes antispyware and ad blocking as well as the firewall, this confirmed to us that we should grant the Editor's Choice award to Agnitum's software".

In addition to the core component – the two-way firewall (network filter for inbound and outbound data) which stops inappropriate or malicious access to and from both internal (LAN) and external (Internet) sources, Outpost incorporates proactive behavioral protection that defends against zero-day threats and prevents the leak of confidential data, delivering protection that reflects real-world conditions.
