About us
Emsisoft's ambition is to produce and market better antivirus/anti-malware software for small to medium sized businesses and managed service providers. We are a leading supplier of efficient real-time protection technology with a focus on behavioral analysis technology to detect new and unknown threats. Our specialty is our multi-layered protection core that combines long-term proven technologies like signature based scanning with state-of the art next-gen cybersecurity provided by machine learning in the cloud. The fully featured Emsisoft EDR platform provides improved threat visibility, root cause analysis with timeline, and advanced threat hunting tools. Our endpoint protection is designed to be completely remote-manageable through the Emsisoft Management Console. The Emsisoft business product range includes the security programs Emsisoft Business Security, Emsisoft Enterprise Security (with EDR), and the Emsisoft Remediation Kit, the world's first fully portable dual-engine scanner. For consumers we offer Emsisoft Anti-Malware Home and Emsisoft Mobile Security for Android. The company was founded in 2003 by Christian Mairoll, realizing his vision of a virtual company: Our threat protection experts are distributed all over the world but work together as if they are sitting next to each other in a real office. In 2014, the company relocated from Austria to New Zealand.
