Jay Chou, international megastar and Kaspersky Lab Brand Ambassador for
the Asia Pacific, accompanied by Mr. Harry Cheung, Managing Director, APAC,
Kaspersky Lab, Mr. Jimmy Fong, Channel Sales Director, SEA, Kaspersky Lab and
Mr Len from Tech Titan Sdn Bhd were on
hand to launch the Kaspersky Lab’s flagship products and TECH TITAN Data Force
1, a USB
ciphering and anti-virus dongle that will be powered by KIS 2014.
The Taiwanese musician, singer-songwriter, music and film producer,
actor and director was appointed as Kaspersky Lab’s brand ambassador for the
Asia Pacific in 2012. The launching of KIS 2014 is his first appearance in
Malaysia as Kaspersky Lab’s brand ambassador.
According to Mr. Harry Cheung, Managing Director, APAC, Kaspersky Lab,
the brand is a front-runner in innovation to deliver security protections to
its customers and adopts a creative approach in its products and partnerships
that has won over end users, corporate customers and partners.
“We have forged partnerships with a solid number of global companies
that share common values to develop a strategic platform in addressing cyber
security issues while strengthening our position as a leader in security solutions.
We have collaborated with 80 global partners including companies such as Scuderia
Ferrari, Qualcomm Technologies, Microsoft, IBM, D-Link and Facebook among
others. Adding Jay Chou to this rooster of notable brand names has boosted our
brand recognition in the Asia Pacific especially among digital natives,” said
Mr. Cheung.
Mr. Cheung added that Jay Chou’s unique creativity, innovation and
excellence across so many segments of the entertainment industry is a good
match to Kaspersky Lab’s independent, innovative and all-round excellence in
providing security and threat management product and service.
“Jay Chou is no stranger to Malaysians and the Chinese community around
the world. He is an amazing multi-talented entertainer and entrepreneur with a
uniqueness, innovativeness and creativity that is an ideal match for Kaspersky
Lab. He is both a professional creator and consumer of digital content and his
input on challenges related to digital content consumption has given us insight
into improving KIS 2014 and KAV 2014. We are excited about this partnership and
look forward collaborating even more closely with him, ” said Mr. Cheung.
“This is the first time I’ve
endorsed an IT security product,” said Jay Chou, “as one of the loyal customers
of Kaspersky Lab’s products, I’m very glad to become its spokesperson, as
digital security is an issue for me and for my fans. Malware isn’t just
disruptive to the online experience, it can lead to loss of confidential
information and to financial losses as well. I hope that through my partnership
with Kaspersky Lab I can make more people aware of the urgent need to protect
themselves online,” Jay Chou said.
“I had the privilege of beta
testing KIS 2014 and it offers premium protection even for a heavy user like me
who is always connected. Get it as soon as it is available!” he added.

According to Mr. Jimmy Fong, Channel Sales Director, SEA, Kaspersky Lab,
the 2014 edition of the brand’s flagship products were developed to provide
more comprehensive and intuitive protection against the explosive growth in volume
and complexity of threats that are increasingly targeting online financial
transactions, and the theft of personal data. It was definitely a good product
which provides safety for all of our important data!
Based on Kaspersky Lab record, more than 200,000 new malicious programs
appear every day with 1.6 billion network attacks blocked and 2.7 billion web-borne
infections prevented per month. The online financial transactions via banks,
payment systems such as PayPal, and e-stored are becoming more popular with
over a billion online purchases worth more than $1.2 trillion recorded in 2012.
However, the trend of online financial transactions has put more users at risk,
as over 40% of identified phishing sites were online payment sites and
financial organizations.
“Kaspersky Internet Security
2014 delivers premium PC protection from all Internet threats, including the
most sophisticated of them, ensuring you’re always safe as you use the web to
bank, shop, surf, participate in social networking, work and more. Technologies, such as Anti-blocker
functionality, Trusted Application Mode and ZETA Shield as well as Safe Money
and Secure Keyboard, keep you safe and protect your financial transactions via
online banks, payment systems such as PayPal, and e-stores. In addition, Kaspersky Internet Security 2014
is optimized for maximum performance, so you’ll never be slowed down as you use
the Internet to its full potential,” said Mr. Fong.

What the New KAV/KIS 2014 Delivers

- Financial Protection. Improved Safe Money technology ensures the security of financial transactions via online banks, payment systems such as PayPal and e-stores.
- Better Performance. KAV/KIS 2014 has been optimized to ensure maximum speed of product operation and minimal impact on most user scenarios with particular attention paid to Windows 8.
- Better Usability. KAV/KIS 2014 has been optimized for usability, particularly around easier installations, Settings usage, and Parental Control set up.
The event today also added another feather in Kaspersky Lab’s cap in its
innovativeness by extending its collaboration with Tech Titan, the developer of TECH TITAN Data Force 1, a
user-friendly USB ciphering and anti-virus dongle that encrypts and protects
data on any USB MSC drives, which include Blue-Ray Disc, DVD, CD-R, USB flash
drive, flash card and hard disk. Kaspersky Lab powers the security solution. It’s
very useful dongle that anyone who is not savvy in technology also could use it
at ease.
“I am
delighted that Kaspersky Lab is extending the partnership with Tech Titan after
our successful corporation in developing the world’s first portable anti-virus
solution last year, the Tech Titan T-Drive Pro, that was designed to be
installed in and executed from USB storage. Kaspersky Lab hopesthat TECH TITAN
Data Force 1 will deliver a more innovative and more convenient cyber
protection to our users,” said Mr.Fong said in closing.
