Fremont, CA, Feb. 14, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NeuShield today announced that the company has received Gold Winner honors as “Best Ransomware Protection Solution” in the 15th Annual 2019 Info Security PG’s 2019 Global Excellence Awards.  The company’s Data Sentinel solution, which is the first to use mirror shielding technology to instantly recover data and files when other malware defenses fail, took top honors in the prestigious global awards. Info Security PG recognizes cybersecurity and information technology vendors with advanced, ground-breaking products, solutions, and services that are helping set the bar higher for others in all areas of security and technologies. NeuShield Data Sentinel (NDS) provides a protective barrier around data to prevent harmful code from changing or corrupting files. Unlike traditional antivirus and anti-ransomware products, NDS does not rely on malware detection, so it works independent of signatures or updates. If a bad actor compromises a computer system with NDS installed, the malicious code attacks a mirror image of the data rather than the actual files. After a ransomware, zero-day or other targeted threat attack, the system owner can simply use the product’s “One Click Restore” feature to gain near instantaneous access to the original version of the data. NeuShield is led by a seasoned team of innovators and technologists with in-depth experience delivering some of the top endpoint security products on the market. The team’s collective experience includes key roles at FireEye, Google, Websense, Symantec and Sygate. Drawing upon their technology expertise and in-depth understanding of the threat landscape as well as weaknesses in existing security solutions, the team is well positioned to deliver the innovations consumers and businesses need to protect their data from constantly evolving threat vectors. “Being named ‘Best Ransomware Protection Solution’ in a highly competitive group of companies, is a great honor for NeuShield,” said Elisha Riedlinger, COO of NeuShield. “It’s really a credit to our engineering team, which has been laser-focused on delivering a game-changing approach to data protection that allows our growing base of customers to shield their important data from threats rather than trying to detect and block threats one-by-one.” “We applaud the success of NeuShield and their commitment to helping companies keep their valuable files and any sensitive consumer data safe,” said Rake Narang, editor-in-chief, Info Security Products Guide.
