DriveSentry uses unique Tri-Security technology which combines a blacklist of known malicious files, a whitelist of trusted programs and feedback statistics from the entire DriveSentry Advisor Community.

DriveSentry monitors all access to your drives but remains uniquely unobtrusive by automating notifications so you are not bothered with numerous popups.

DriveSentry Desktop is one of the few real alternatives to traditional PC antivirus protection providing comprehensive pro-active security for your system. DriveSentry GoAnywhere offers portable antivirus protection, providing complete USB disk security for your removable devices. GoAnywhere allows you to protect the data on your USB device no matter where you connect it by residing on the USB key NOT the system.

DriveSentry takes a new approach to protection using triple layered security. This three layered approach combines one of the largest blacklists, containing over 1.1 million unique virus signatures, with a whitelist of known “trusted” programs and a global wiki style community of advisors, providing real-time wisdom of crowds. DriveSentry also employs behavioural analysis to profile unknown programs.

Conventional security software relies on a database of blacklisted programs with updates struggling to keep up with the fast rise in new viruses. DriveSentry takes a new approach, combining a database of both "good" (whitelisted) and "bad" (blacklisted) programs along with feedback from the Advisor Community. You are not fully protected without DriveSentry.

DriveSentry collects program access decisions from its entire community of users. Statistics are then compiled enabling you to access Community advice.

DriveSentry boasts one of the largest and fastest growing blacklists of known threats, containing over 1.1 million unique virus signatures. If a virus is detected, in real-time, or during an on demand scan, the virus will be automatically sent to Quarantine so that it can not cause any damage to your system or data.
