Key Metric Software’s Commitment to Customer Security
Introduction
In an era of increasing digital security concerns, software integrity has become a critical priority for both personal and business computing environments. This article outlines Key Metric Software’s comprehensive approach to ensuring the security and integrity of our software products, with particular focus on malware and adware prevention strategies.
Distribution Policy and Product Integrity
Adware-Free Commitment
Key Metric Software maintains a strict no-adware policy across our entire product portfolio. This commitment stems from our business philosophy that quality software should be monetized through direct value delivery rather than through intrusive advertising mechanisms or third-party revenue sharing arrangements. Our business model is built on developing high-performance applications that justify their purchase price through operational value.
Authorized Distribution Channels
To ensure maximum security, Key Metric Software products should only be obtained through our official distribution channels. Unauthorized sources cannot guarantee the integrity of our software and may distribute modified versions containing security vulnerabilities or malicious code. All official downloads are available exclusively from our product websites.
Technical Security Measures
Key Metric Software implements a multi-layered approach to product security:
Secure Development Infrastructure
All development and build processes occur within hardened environments designed to prevent unauthorized code injection or tampering during the software creation process.
Digital Signature Implementation
Each software component is digitally signed using Extended Validation (EV) certificates, providing verification of both publisher identity and code integrity. This applies to all executable files and the installation packages themselves.
Secure Distribution Infrastructure
Completed software builds are transferred to secure hosting environments that undergo continuous security monitoring and regular penetration testing to prevent unauthorized access or modification.
Multi-Engine Malware Scanning
Prior to release, all software packages undergo comprehensive scanning using multiple industry-leading malware detection engines. For example, FolderSizes installation packages are submitted to VirusTotal for analysis by dozens of different security products to ensure no false positives or security concerns exist.
Ongoing Security Commitment
This overview represents one facet of Key Metric Software’s comprehensive security strategy. Our security processes undergo regular review and enhancement to address emerging threats and incorporate industry best practices.
Recommendations for Customers
To maximize security when using any software product:
- Always download from authorized sources, preferably directly from the software publisher
- Verify digital signatures before installation when available
- Maintain updated security software on all systems
- Report any security concerns immediately to the software vendor
Key Metric Software remains committed to providing secure, reliable software solutions that protect our customers’ data and systems while delivering exceptional operational value.
