Shadow
Defender is an easy-to-use desktop security and privacy protection tool
for Windows operating systems. It provides an excellent way to prevent
unwanted or malicious changes from being made to a PC. With Shadow
Defender you can run system in a virtual environment, called Shadow
Mode. and all the attacks will happed in the virtual environment, not
the real environment. If attacks happened, all you need to do is to
reboot your system. After reboot, the system will be restored to the
original state, as if nothing happened. And meanwhile you can save the
selected files and folders to the real environment.
Shadow Defender's protection concept is very easy to grasp. For the
software to do its job properly you have to place the disks installed
on your computer into Shadow Mode. By doing this, the application will
take a snapshot of the disk and run every file in virtual mode. You
will have the same access to the files on the disk but any write action
will be virtual. This means that no matter how many worms and spywares
you infect your computer with, they will not affect the real system at
all because of the virtualization. Once you snap out of this "parallel
dimension" every change to the system and the files on the disk will be
discarded.
The conclusion in this sense is that the computer will not be affected
by any change and no malicious files will be written to the PC. The
greatest thing is that you can choose what can actually get stuck on
the disk while in Shadow Mode. More than this, you can decide in
advance what files and folders should not benefit from Shadow Mode
protection.
