Features

Security Starts with Privacy
As a part of System Mechanic® Ultimate Defense™, Privacy Guardian™ online privacy protection helps thwart invasive monitoring of your browsing habits and computer use, automates deletion of tracking cookies and other web-browsing traces stored on your computer, detects many types of suspicious email, lets you search privately and allows you to easily disable many overly-aggressive Windows® data-collection default settings.

Safeguard Passwords and Credit Cards
Included within System Mechanic Ultimate Defense, ByePass simplifies your digital life while securing it. ByePass is a platform-agnostic, secure password manager that also helps protect your online purchases.
With ByePass, malicious intermediaries are also thwarted from stealing your credit card info because the numbers are locally encrypted and only deployed as needed to make purchases.
Never again will you need to insecurely type or store passwords and credit cards in your web browser where keyloggers and hackers can steal them.

Block Malware
System Shield is a VB100-certified anti-malware solution that deploys both reactive and proactive malware detection strategies.

• A reactive strategy detects viruses using published malware signature detection.
• A proactive strategy uses sophisticated behavior-monitoring techniques to build a general sense of whether a given file intends to harm your computer, stopping attacks before a security patch for a particular threat is released.

Find and Destroy Existing Malware
Malware is a rapidly growing threat today as almost one million new viruses, worms, Trojans, rootkits and species of spy- and ransomware are released daily.*
Yet most anti-malware software on the market only blocks malware and has no way to remove it from a computer once infected. Several antivirus manufacturers instead even direct customers to costly premium phone support to help remove malware remotely.
Malware Killer is the nuclear option that finds and removes dangerous malware from already-infected computers.
Malware Killer is unique among malware remediation software because it uses proprietary Scan Cloud™-based scanning and analysis, enabled by its own carefully developed heuristics algorithm to dramatically reduce detection time for brand new outbreaks. This method allows Malware Killer to continually add to a vast “reputation database,” and even detect previously unknown threats.

Recover Lost Data
Search and Recover deploys powerful technology to retrieve items many other file-recovery products miss. Rescue critical work and cherished memories you thought were lost for good.
Get back accidentally deleted documents, music, photos, email, videos, system files and even entire folders from many types of hard drives, cameras and other devices.

Permanently Erase Sensitive Data
DriveScrubber safely and permanently deletes sensitive data from entire hard drives with military-grade file deletion technology.
Threats to your privacy and security come in many forms. One way is when users fail to eradicate their personal information when selling, donating or recycling a computer.
