Fasoo Smart Screen Bolsters Supply Chain Security with Advanced Screen Protection
SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA, June 2, 2025 / / -- Fasoo, the leader in data-centric security, introduces new momentum for Fasoo Smart Screen (FSS), its advanced screen security solution designed to control unauthorized screen capture tools and display a dynamic watermark on screen, deterring users from taking a photo using smartphones. As global supply chains become increasingly digitized and distributed, organizations face heightened pressure to secure every touchpoint where sensitive data is accessed. Organizations in the semiconductor, automotive, energy, aerospace, and defense industries, as well as companies across their supply chains, recognize that protecting what's visible on the screen is just as critical as securing files in storage or in transit. Fasoo Smart Screen addresses this growing need by adding a powerful layer of screen protection to data-centric security strategies. The solution prevents unauthorized screen captures, applies dynamic watermarks to deter visual leaks, and logs screen-based activity to support incident response and compliance efforts. 'Supply chain ecosystems are more interconnected than ever, but that connectivity also introduces new risks, especially when intellectual property information is exposed on screen across third-party vendors, offshore development centers, and outsourced operations,' said Jason Sohn, Executive Managing Director at Fasoo. 'Fasoo Smart Screen helps organizations enforce zero trust principles even at the screen level, ensuring that visual data exposure doesn't become a weak link.' Fasoo has seen rising adoption of FSS across industries with complex and high-value supply chains, including semiconductors, automotive, and electronics. In these environments, engineers, suppliers, and contractors frequently access critical IP and confidential design data via virtual desktops or remote platforms. FSS helps ensure that what's shown on-screen – from chip layouts to production blueprints – stays protected at all times throughout the extended supply chain. Key Features of Fasoo Smart Screen: • Dynamic Screen Watermarks: Apply on-screen, user-specific watermarks that allow tracing data breaches back to their source. • Screen Capture Prevention: Block all screen capture attempts, including the Print Screen key, snipping tools, remote control software, or other capture applications. • Comprehensive Activity Log: Monitor screen capture attempts for audits, compliance management, and incident response. • Seamless Integration: FSS is compatible with Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, and various environments, ensuring comprehensive protection across diverse platforms.

Tina Birtchnell, Spa Manager at Donnington Valley Hotel & Spa, explained that there are several factors during this season that can contribute to premature ageing. 'The good news is many of them are within your control,' says Tina. 'One of the most overlooked is sleep. Poor quality or insufficient sleep can accelerate cellular ageing, affecting everything from your skin to your overall wellbeing. 'We understand life gets busy, but prioritising quality rest can significantly improve not only your appearance, but also your mood, energy, and productivity. 'Hydration is another simple yet powerful tool. Many people underestimate the ageing effects of dehydration, especially when alcohol is involved. 'Alcohol strips the skin of moisture, leaving it dry and dull, and enhancing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. 'Water can have a visibly rejuvenating effect, often making you look and feel years younger.' In addition to these lifestyle basics, maintaining a consistent skincare routine is essential. She says: 'Support your skin daily with cleansing, hydration, and sun protection.

Do I need antivirus software for Windows 11?
If you're new to using a computer or new to Microsoft, or on the flip side, very, very experienced you might be thinking: Do I really need an antivirus program for my Windows 11 computer? The short answer here is yes. Always yes. The long answer is still yes. That's one of the reasons why Microsoft provides its users with the free, built-in antivirus program Microsoft Defender. But if your question is more along the lines of: Do I need additional third-party support on top of what Microsoft Defender provides, then that's a more nuanced answer… that is mostly also going to be yes, for the reasons we'll explain below. The reality is, every computer should have an antivirus program – even Mac owners should consider adding third-party antivirus software at this point. However, it's particularly important for Windows 11 users because they're even more likely to be targeted by malware, ransomware, phishing, spyware or other cyberattacks. As of April 2025, Windows 11 made up for almost 44% of desktop users worldwide, and an AV-Test report from 2020 showed that 83% of the malware that year targeted Windows computers. Cybercrime is an industry that makes trillions of dollars each year, and Windows computers are at the top of the list. It's often preventable through the simple use of one of the best antivirus software suites and good cybersecurity hygiene. You, the user, are the first line of defense, but in the instance that you slip up, you'll want a solid security program backing you up with virus scans, access to a password managers, a VPN, website blockers, and more to help keep your data safe and your computer running smoothly. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Microsoft Defender is included free and automatically enabled when you set up Windows 11, making it an easy antivirus option for Windows users – particularly new users or those who don't want to spend a lot of time downloading and installing a third-party program. Defender is kept automatically updated and uses the cloud to provide fast malware identification. When we reviewed it, we found its malware protection to be good, with four scanning options including a quick scan and a custom scan option. It also offers some great additional features like the basic ransomware protection that will back up OneDrive files and folders and can prevent malicious changes without administrator approval. There's also SmartScreen, an Edge browser feature that can warn you if a website, app, or download you open or run is potentially malicious. Billed as an anti-phishing tool, SmartScreen, can be easily dismissed if you want to get around it and is more intended as a warning to the user than a block. Another feature Defender offers is a firewall, which filters network traffic to protect against malicious apps and hacks that want access to your network or devices. The firewall can filter or limit network traffic based on your preferences, and it will automatically block any untrustworthy attempts from connecting to your network or devices. There's more, like a password manager for Edge, some parental controls for limiting screen time, app control that can block unsigned apps, and VPN and identity protection. But as with any free program, some of it is limited or includes an add on fee. Microsoft Defender offers a good base layer of protection for your Windows 11 system, it's true. But it's generally considered a starting point – while the security features offered by Defender are usually good enough, they often put the responsibility of safety into your hands (think SmartScreen's warning pop ups) and you'll still need to practice excellent cybersecurity practices to keep yourself safe by watching what sites you visit along with what you download and click on. It's also worth pointing out some of the advantages that a third-party antivirus software can provide: more robust antivirus protection that can anticipate malware and virus attacks, more expansive features and bundled packages that protect a whole household or multiple devices. Third-party, or paid, antivirus programs like those from Norton or Bitdefender may offer up better parental controls, a VPN that's included instead of one that you have to pay extra for, a password manager that works with any browser of your choice (and not just Edge), and include other features like identity theft protection, a file shredder, or webcam blocker. Regardless of what you choose, built-in and free or third-party and paid, or both, you should absolutely, always, make sure that your Windows 11 computer has one of the best antivirus software programs installed, running and up-to-date. It might take a little bit of time to get one set up the way you like it, and it may occasionally give you a warning about an app or website, but that is always better than having to deal with a virus, getting your data stolen, or having your computer taken over by hackers and malware which would be a much, much bigger hassle.
