All of the 2012 products deliver real-time protection against known and unknown threats by leveraging the knowledge and experience of millions of users through Panda's unique cloud-based Collective Intelligence technology. Every day, PandaLabs receives nearly 100,000 new files that Collective Intelligence automatically analyzes, classifies and remedies. By gathering information on malware from the worldwide Panda community, Collective Intelligence continuously improves protection levels and offers more rapid response to the newest and most dangerous malware attacks.

Panda Global Protection 2012, the most comprehensive solution in the new product line, is specifically designed for highly active users with the most demanding protection needs. New features include:

-- File Encryption and Shredding: Users can easily encrypt any document or file by right-clicking on the file and choosing the "Panda SafeVault" option. Each document will then be password protected and encrypted to prevent the theft of personal, banking and financial data or valuable multimedia content. Users can also virtually "shred" files, deleting files forever, ensuring no one can access the data.
-- Remote Control: Users can access their computer files from anywhere with an Internet connection.
-- PC Optimization: Improves PC performance, optimizing system speed.

The entire 2012 line builds on the core functionality that has positioned Panda Security as the preferred antivirus provider among PC users with advanced anti-virus detection and remediation, improved firewalls and behavioral analysis. Updated features available in the consumer products include:
