Wontok’s new automata-architected multi-engine AV SDK in Wontok™ SafeCentral AntiMalware is based on in-house developed software technology and applies the formal ‘finite automata’ mathematical model, which allows concurrent and simultaneous execution of multiple antimalware scan-engines enabling highest possible degree of viral detection without interoperability conflicts or deadlocks or blocking.

Oleg Kouznetsov, Chief Systems Architect, Wontok adds: “I congratulate our engineers for in nine months, we managed to surpass some big name vendors that have been in the anti-malware business for the better part of the last 30 years, solving major technical issues that have been holding back progress in the industry as a whole. Our Wontok SafeCentral AntiMalware is driven by using best-of-breed scan engines and wrapped by our proprietary technology.”

Wontok’s Secure by Design philosophy and engineering design methodologies starts security architecture from the ground up by assuming malware is already present on the endpoint, cloud, VDI, VDN client and approaches anti-malware differently from the traditional antivirus detection companies. By working at the deepest defense layer at kernel level for interception, monitoring and protection where malware resides, Wontok keeps institutions and consumers sensitive data safe regardless even if malware is already present.

Adam Tegg, CEO, Wontok states: “We invest heavily in our R&D. External tests like the VB 100 Comparative give us both validation and information for further performance enhancements. As Advanced Persistent Threats and Zero Day attacks increase, proactive antimalware solutions will increasingly become important to protect institutions, governments and consumers from cybercrimes.”
