What is Cujo?

WHAT IS CUJO?
 
 
CUJO is the Smart Internet Firewall Device for your entire Home!
 
 
How CUJO Secures My Home?
 
CUJO analyzes your local network traffic data locally and in real time. It then sends statistics on that data to the cloud for further analysis. For your privacy as well as performance reasons, we don’t send the contents of those packets to the cloud. If a threat or suspicious activity is detected, CUJO will tell the cloud what it has blocked so you can receive a notification on your mobile app to confirm it.
 
 
Our Mobile App
 
Through CUJO’s mobile app you can…
  • Control and monitor all devices on your network
  • Receive instant threat notifications
  • Control Internet access for select devices.
In addition, you can manually override any blocks automated by CUJO so you’re in full control all the time.


Why You Need CUJO?

Traditionally, PC security software, like antivirus or antimalware, is designed to only protect you the device it’s installed on. With so many connected devices in your home, you and your family’s personal lives are now on display through the networked home gadgets you have. Once connected to your router, CUJO smart firewall protects your entire home from nosy and unwanted intrusions.
 
 
Traditional Approach
 
Anti-virus and anti-malware software that you have on your PC mostly fails to protect you against hacks. Virtual criminals penetrate your network using vulnerabilities found in your router and your connected devices. Once they are in the network, traditional security software is mostly incapable to keep your information secure. One rogue device exposes your entire network, including the PC that has traditional security software installed.
 
 
Our Approach 
 
CUJO creates a guarded gateway between your devices and their connection to the Internet. We analyze packets for malicious intent right there on the CUJO whether it’s coming in from the Internet, going out to the Internet, or making moves across your network. CUJO applies IP/DNS Threat Intelligence, Behavioral Analysis using machine learning, Unauthorized Remote Access detection, Command & Control detection, and other security methods. When we catch something we send packet statistics (but not full packets) to the Cujo Cloud to analyze device behavior and make sure every other CUJO is aware of this kind of attack. We guard every single connected device on your network, not just your PC. Unlike traditional solutions, CUJO keeps improving all the time to protect your home.

Five Reasons for a Computer Tune Up.....
 
 
Is your computer running slow? Do you have time to run errands while waiting for the computer to start? Then maybe it’s time for a computer tune up. All computers need some maintenance at least once or twice a year, in order to “clean the house”. There is lots of junk that accumulates with everyday use and that starts to slow down your system, making your computer more susceptible to crashes. That can be fixed with some tuning up either in the shop while you wait, on-site or virtual remote to your system.

Simple Maintenance for Your Computer

There are simple steps for weekly or monthly maintenance that don’t take long, or there are more complete tune ups, the type to be done once or twice a year, that would require more of your time. If you can get a good clean up for your computer once a year, then simple monthly maintenance should keep your machine running smoothly. And the good news is that you can do it yourself, if you don’t want to pay somebody else to do it for you.

Five Good Reasons to Tune Up Your Computer

1. Get Better Performance:

It speeds up your PC (or laptop). When you tune up, you get rid of the useless files and unused programs that clog your system. Your computer doesn’t have to load so much unused data and this makes it run faster, just like when it was brand new and you hadn’t had time to clutter it yet.
Imagine that your computer is a large garage and your stored temp files, duplicates, unused programs and recycle bin are boxes in there. Your garage would probably be so filled up with stuff that it would be a mess, nothing would fit in and it would take you a lot of time just to get to the door, not to mention to find the tools that are necessary to your work. That is why you need to delete all the unused data and programs: so you can have room to help you do what you need to do faster, without having so much clutter in your way.

2. Get your Files and Programs Organized:

Uninstall programs that you don’t use or old games you’ve finished playing. Delete duplicate files; there are some good free software programs online that can do this job for you, which sometimes can be really time consuming.

3. Archive Old Data:

Transfer old pictures, old files and documents you don’t use anymore to a flash drive or a CD-R. Advice: when burning data into a CD-R, always make two copies. We suggests that you create a folder in your hard drive for these old files you want to keep.

4. Protect Your Computer:

When you tune up, you can take the opportunity to remove viruses and threats. Scan everything with the antivirus. Disable the System Restore of your computer before scanning for viruses, since sometimes some infected files can be mixed and stored there as a backup. Make sure your firewall protection is on and that your anti-virus software is updated.

5. Get Faster Start Up:

Clean your system tray. Your system tray is that box that stays in the lower right-hand corner of the screen, right where the clock is. You can see there what programs are being loaded when you start the computer. If you have too many, your computer will take forever to load them and that also makes your machine unstable.
