Collective Intelligence

All our products provide maximum protection through Collective Intelligence, disinfecting thousands of new threats every day, including those not detected by other security solutions.

Panda Security’s Collective Intelligence works as an online, real-time database that stores the majority of signature files, keeping them at a minimum on the endpoint. Every Panda user is a sensor for new malware, sending statistical data about malware prevalence back to the cloud. This new approach reduces bandwidth consumption on customers PCs and provides faster and more comprehensive up-to-date protection.

“To date, Panda Security is the only large security vendor that has embraced the herd intelligence (Collective Intelligence) message... Anti-virus companies that are not taking steps today to plan for malware volumes 100 times their current load are not thinking hard enough about the problem.”
Yankee Group report on Herd Intelligence.

The Collective Intelligence approach has been piloted by millions of users of many Panda free products since 2007, allowing Panda to collect ten times as much malware samples as traditional antivirus vendors.

Panda Security is the first security vendor that has the technology, the infrastructure, the knowledge and the experience to apply the Collective Intelligence approach to its commercially available products. The new Panda 2010 Consumer products are based on Collective Intelligence.
