Comodo Memory Firewall is a buffer overflow detection and prevention software which provides the ultimate defense against one of the most serious and common attack types on the Internet - the buffer overflow attack.

Comodo Memory Firewall protects against data theft, computer crashes and system damage by preventing most types of buffer overflow attacks. This type of attack occurs when a malicious program or script deliberately sends more data to its memory buffer than the buffer can handle. It is at this point that a successful attack can create a back door to the system though which a hacker can gain access. The goal of most attacks is to install malware onto the compromised PC whereby the hacker can reformat the hard drive, steal sensitive user information, or even install programs that transform the machine into a Zombie PC.

The product is aimed for system administrators as well as desktop users to protect their systems and it willl efficiently detect all the suspicious code executions in the stack or the heap portions of the memory.

Comodo Memory Firewall detects the following types of attack:

• Detection of Buffer Overflows which occur in the STACK memory
• Detection of Buffer Overflows which occur in the HEAP memory
• Detection of ret2libc attacks
• Detection of corrupted/bad SEH Chains
