ESET NetProtect helping Telco's to protect consumers online

In today's interconnected world, cyber threats have reached unprecedented levels. Cybercriminals are constantly devising new strategies to exploit vulnerabilities and target unsuspecting individuals. Like many other countries, Australia has experienced a surge in cyber threats, putting consumers at risk of falling victim to scams, fraud, and identity theft. 

Phishing scams and fake websites have become increasingly prevalent, with cyber criminals using various channels, including emails, text messages, and online advertisements, to deceive individuals and gain access to their sensitive information. Two-thirds of Australians aged 15 years and over were exposed to a scam in 2021-22, up from 55% in the previous year, according to figures recently released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS).

"These activities lead to significant financial and reputation losses, identity theft, and other detrimental consequences. It is crucial to address the rising cyber threats faced by Australian consumers and equip individuals with the necessary tools to protect themselves," says Parvinder Walia, ESET President for Asia Pacific and Japan. 

"While the current approach involves having the protection reside on consumers' devices, such as installing security applications on smartphones, there is an opportunity for ISPs and telcos to introduce an additional layer of safeguarding at the network level. This would effectively enable consumers to block access to malicious websites and manage access to inappropriate content, bolstering overall security measures."

Recognising the urgent need for robust cybersecurity solutions, ESET, a leading cybersecurity company, has recently announced an innovative solution called ESET NetProtect, exclusively designed for Telcos and ISP providers to protect consumers from cyber threats. ESET NetProtect, a DNS filtering solution available for home users at ISPs and telcos that partner with ESET, ensures round-the-clock protection for users. 

Users gain instant security with just a single click, regardless of hardware limitations or the need for multiple applications across different operating systems. The seamless usability and maintenance of ESET NetProtect require no installation or software updates, guaranteeing constant and up-to-date protection without any hassle for end users.

Furthermore, ESET NetProtect offers customisable features that allow end users to personalise their protection. They can block specific website categories, tailoring their online experience to meet their unique requirements. This level of customisation empowers users to take control of their cybersecurity and adapt it according to their preferences.

To keep users informed about potential threats and provide valuable insights into their online safety, ESET NetProtect provides comprehensive security reports. These reports offer a detailed overview of the security status, enabling users to stay vigilant and take necessary actions to protect themselves from emerging threats.
