Pareto Logic Provides Internet Security to the U.S. and Canada, Its Homeland, through Softchoice
Victoria, B.C., June 15, 2006 – Are North Americans ready for the onslaught of spyware and malware that is poised to infect their systems? Mainstream Internet use, still in its infancy, has exploded in North America, its popularity expanding much faster than its users' ability to educate themselves about its inherent risks. Creators and distributors of spyware and malware have wasted no time in exploiting this vulnerability, attacking PC's on a global scale. As the world leaders in Internet use, Americans and Canadians are a prime target. Canadian Internet Security company, Pareto Logic, dedicated to providing the education and tools that consumers need to protect themselves from online threats, has joined forces with Softchoice Corporation in an effort to empower North Americans to protect their privacy and their PC's.
Operating with a mutual goal to provide additional software solutions that will further assist the consumers in Canada and the United States to prepare and maximize the protection of their computer systems, this new partnership promises to be a powerful weapon in the fight against spyware. "We look forward to working with Softchoice and its team of software and hardware professionals to further educate their customers on how to maximize the protection of their computer systems from spyware, adware, keyloggers, pop-up generators, trojans, hijackers, and other forms of malware." States ParetoLogic's Director of Global Sales, Bruce Kwan, predicting that this new partnership will provide North American computer users with the tools and education they will need to keep themselves and their families safe from the adverse affects of spyware and malware.
