 Creating Identity Rules

Keeping confidential data safe is an important issue that bothers us all. Data theft has kept pace with the development of Internet communications and it makes use of new methods of fooling people into giving away private information.

Whether it is your e-mail or your credit card number, when they fall into the wrong hands such information may cause you damage: you may find yourself drowning in spam messages or you might be surprised to access an emptied account.

Identity Control helps you keep confidential data safe. It scans the HTTP or SMTP traffic, or both, for certain strings that you have defined.

Note: If a match is found, the respective web page or e-mail will blocked.
