NetKeeper 5100 Series with Winny and Skype Event Detection Module Support

NK5100 Series is designed to deter the Winny and Skype from the network usage. Winny is a Japanese peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing application and Skype is a VoIP application for making phone calls, text chat, and file-transfer over the Internet.

A remote attacker could exploit the heap-based buffer overflow in Winny to execute arbitrary commands on a victim's system, or create a malicious Winny application with backdoor features. Files shared from other Winny users could contain viruses or other backdoor programs. NK5100 Series is designed to secure against the threat prevent Winny access within the managed network.

While today’s Corporation encourages Skype usage as a cost saving mean, however, Skype usage may pose possible network threat by transferring files with malicious virus codes attached to and possible leak of confidential information via the text chat or the file-transfer. NK5100 Series enables better network utilization and security by managing each user functions that allows voice, video, and file-transfer to users with the proper network privileges.
