BAKERSFIELD, Calif., Jan. 17 / -- Lightspeed Systems, developer of innovative security software products for the education and enterprise markets, today announced the release of Total Traffic Control (TTC) v6.0. The newest version of Lightspeed Systems' comprehensive security software prevents and eliminates known and unknown threats on school networks, at the gateway and directly on the desktop. Version 6.0 enhancements make Total Traffic Control one of the most complete and effective security software products available to meet the growing needs of K-12 school and other enterprise networks and to ensure compliance with the growing array of data regulations, including the Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA).
"Total Traffic Control v6.0 was developed with the assistance of technology coordinators and network administrators throughout the country who needed protection from their biggest threat, their own network users," said Rob McCarthy, Founder and Chief Technology Officer of Lightspeed Systems. "TTC v6.0 uses application program permissions in a way that overcomes the shortcomings of all leading antivirus and anti-spyware technology, and its Security Agent pushes protection, filtering and reporting to desktops and laptops even when they are working remotely."
TTC's core functionality includes content filtering, spam blocking, bandwidth management, user reporting and layered security. TTC v6.0 incorporates a Security Agent, which augments virus signature matching with behavior analysis to identify and prevent malicious threats, adding a layer of protection to both server and desktop computing systems.
