Subject:  Lockdown2000

Virginia Webb:
"What are some of the features of the program that you did create, 
Lockdown2000, I know you developed this for your own company, Harbor 
Telco, but then you realized it should and could become a stand-alone 
product.  So what are the features that you initially started out with 
in it and then what have you added on?"


Michael Paris:
"Right, originally, when we found this gaping hole in the Internet as 
far as people being able to access your computer network shares over the 
net, we developed a program to be able to block access to those network 
shares.  There wasn't anything built in to do it in Windows 95 or 
Windows 98.  So that's originally what the program came out to be, then 
when the Back Orifice trojan was widely publicized of course we built in 
the detection and the removal for the Back Orifice trojan.  And now with 
all the many other trojans coming out of course we've added a lot into 
the program, we've had to add the generics in there which basically will 
detect future trojans for you so you don't have to worry about signature 
file updates all the time."
