Software Company VEEDog Announces Ransomware Blocker Software

Daniel Lorch, CEO of VEEDog, Inc., a Burbank, California based software company, today announced the wide availability of their flagship Ransomware software. VEEDog has developed their software to evaluate unknown code and make a determination as to its safety, thus stopping potential ransomware attacks. According to Mr. Lorch the software is now widely available.

“We’re happy to be making this announcement,” says Mr. Lorch. “What you’ve seen in the news these last weeks has been the coming wave. We’re prepared for it, and you can be too. VEEDog is designed specifically for this threat.”

Ransomware is defined as advanced malware that encrypts a victim’s files, making them inaccessible, and demands a ransom payment to decrypt them. It is currently the most significant and unstoppable type of malware problem facing IT departments throughout the world. Anti-virus products do not block ransomware. Recently several new threats have been in the news, including one called WannaCry, and another developing this week in the Ukraine, called XData.

“The best defense so far has been to try and prevent ransomware from entering your computer in the first place,” says Mr. Lorch. “Much has been written about the magnitude and pervasiveness of the ransomware problem and we’re now starting to see it take form. The good news is, regardless of how the ransomware gets onto your computer, VEEDog Ransomware Blocker detects and blocks attempts by ransomware to encrypt your files. This means real-time evaluation and detection. With VEEDog you’re safe even before the threat is known.”

VEEDog Ransomware Blocker is designed to be installed on each endpoint to be protected. This first release is designed to protect computers running Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10 operating systems. More information can be found at the company’s website.
