Criminal intruders and hackers are continuously inventing new technologies to penetrate personal computers and servers. The latest development is the use of advanced stealth techniques called rootkits. Rootkits can place e.g. Trojans and keyloggers invisibly on the computer to monitor and steal data from them. The malicious code is hidden so well that neither the operating system nor any of the existing conventional security products (e.g. antivirus, antispyware or Intrusion Detection System (IDS) solutions) can detect them.
F-Secure is constantly developing its product portfolio to match the needs of small and medium-sized companies all the way through to larger enterprises. F-Secure product suite family consists of F-Secure Anti-Virus Small Business Suite, F-Secure Anti-Virus Corporate Suite and F-Secure Anti-Virus Enterprise Suite.
F-Secure Corporation launched the F-Secure Mobile Anti-Virus for smartphone users at CeBIT exhibition in Hannover, Germany.
 As we enter the second quarter of 2005, the known threats posed by malware, viruses in computers and mobile phones, and the improper use of the Internet only seem to increase in magnitude and complexity.
In a single decade, the number of recognized viruses has grown from 5,500 to a burgeoning 100,000 in 2005. In spite of the facts, a significant volume of daily Internet users in the home and in enterprises around the world fail to protect their computers with the latest anti virus software or to use firewalls.
