Copenhagen, Denmark -- May 30th, 2006 -- SteelSeries, a leading manufacturer of innovative professional gaming gear, announced today a new partnership with BullGuard, specialists in user-friendly PC & Mobile security solutions. The two brands, specialists in their respective areas of business, are together creating the world's first dedicated security solution for online gamers.
The new product, named SteelSecurity, is specifically designed for online gamers, and offers complete anti-virus and firewall protection that has been enhanced with an advanced spamfilter and online backup system, ensuring that the user's online game experience will never be interrupted by malware or virus attacks.
SteelSecurity automatically transitions into "game mode" each time the user launches a supported online game. In "game mode" the application uses only minimal system resources, never initiating system scans and halts auto-updating of virus definitions to allow the user to focus completely on their games. The security application offers integrated support for most popular PC games, and auto-updates with new game profiles as new PC game titles are released.
