The Virus Defence Bureau was formed first in New Zealand
in July 1993 as sole distributor of the InVircible virus
defence system from Netz Computing in Israel.
The technology and approach clearly had significant advantages
over the simplistic signature scanning offered by the anti-virus
industry, in that it utilised sophisticated behavioural
based programming techniques initially developed to combat
enemy manipulation of defence computers.
After thorough testing Virus Defence Bureau introduced
InVircible to New Zealand in 1994, Melbourne Australia 1995,
Oxford United Kingdom 1996, and by the late 1990's the software
had gained a significant share of these markets.
Today we have Sales and Client Support offices in the three
countries and the company prides itself in having the very
best service and support in the industry as well as providing
a product that consistently outperforms traditional "anti-virus"
programs.
In late 1999, 2001, and again in 2002 the Australian
Achiever Awards gave Virus Defence Bureau Australia
Pty Ltd scores of 86.2%, 92.7%, and 96.7% for Customer satisfaction
based on a poll of the user base, which would confirm this
dedication to support and service.
Of more recent times the company has seen a need to offer
its existing clients and new users a multi-tiered security
solution from the Email/Internet Gateway through servers
and desktops.
We now offer Gateway Email and Internet filtering software
from Marshal, Finjan Software, and Retina from EEye Software
a network vulnerability testing tool to compliment InVircible
on Desktops and servers.
The Virus Defence Bureau solution provides complete protection
against the 'First Strike' of viruses and malicious code
as well as Email content filtering, solutions to monitor
Internet content and bandwidth utilization.
Virus Defence Bureau has acquired a very large number of
clients over the years in the Corporate and Government area
in the three countries and also supports a network of qualified
Resellers in each State who supply our solutions to their
users.
